Are you interested in making a website? There's a new tool on the web you may not yet know about. Creating a dynamic website is not just for the rich and computer-savvy. With a free website builder, you can design and decorate your very own Flash website exactly the way you want. With graphics, video, widgets and more, you can create a fun and interactive website to capture your visitors’ attention.

If your site is dynamic, your visitors are more likely to stay and explore all you have to offer. Select a Layout Experiment with layouts. Do you want a bold, minimalist layout with just one feature on the main page? Or do you favor more of a traditional approach with a side bar, text and pictures? You can customize a free website template at Wix.com, simply by clicking on a template of your choice and customizing it using Wix' fun graphic interface. Add menus and mini pages to arrange your site just the way you want. Try different colors, gradients and patterns to get the look that has the greatest impact. Click on any component you wish to move and drag it where you want it and resize it to fit your design.

You can change the text in any box by either double clicking or selecting Edit in the pop-up menu. Text and background colors are easy to change and you can easily link your text to a URL. No HTML or code is needed to make these changes; it is all done with your mouse and the menus provided by Wix. Add Rich Media People like pictures and they add interest to your site. A video demonstrating a product or procedure makes your site interactive and grabs your visitor’s attention.

You don’t have to spend a fortune making a video, since there are a lot of programs available to help you with this task. You can add media (photos, videos, photo galleries and music) to your free website by using the Media button on the left side of the screen. Upload files from your computer or select from Wix’ gallery. You can even search for videos on YouTube, MetaCafe and 5Min, or enter a URL to upload a video from the web. Clip Art, Animation & Special Effects Let your personality show with pictures. You can select your own pictures or use Wix’ extensive collection.

Once you select your picture and the location on your page you can make it really stand out with some cool effects. For example, select the honeybee from Animations and then click on the picture and select Effects. Choose the Glow effect and change the color to bright yellow. You honeybee now has a yellow glow all around it. Click on the bee again and select Effects and use the red X to delete the Glow effect and change it to Cannon Emitter. Stars will then start shooting out from around the honeybee. You can see how you can play with the effects and settings to create stunning graphics.

Another graphic effect that has a lot of impact is Video FX. Select this option and choose the Fireworks. Now you have a fireworks display on your page. Move the honeybee over the fireworks and you can see how you can layer the graphics to create your own personal statement. You can also add lines, shapes, animations, and icons to your page and add effects to each one. It’s fun and easy to add some spice and interest with Wix' easy website builder.

Sleek Galleries If you are a photographer, the Galleries tool was made for you. You can add a gallery to your free website and choose from a wide variety of effects and layouts. If you do not have your own pictures to upload from your computer, Wix has several pictures and graphics for you to choose from. You can create a slideshow, a carousel, an accordion gallery and several others. You can also further customize them by changing the way the pictures transition. Add some effects from the Video FX and you will have a one-of-a-kind picture gallery.
