After you settle on the basic look of your Web site, you can start working on
your Web site’s message. Unfortunately, you’re going to have to do a bit of homework here. The best way to add content to your Web site is to start small and expand as the need — and inspiration — arises. At the very least, you can start out with a “business card” Web site that contains very basic information about your company:

Here’s a quartet of basic information items you’ll want to include:

• Name
• Location
• Contact information
• Brief description of products or services

Your Web site appears on the Internet as soon as you sign up for an Office Live
account. Make sure that you replace the instructional content that is displayed
on your site pages before you announce your Web-site address to the world!
To modify the text on your Web pages, follow these steps:

1. Click WebSite in the Navigation bar of your Office Live Home page. The Page Manager page opens.
2. Click Edit next to the page you’d like to edit. The Page Editor tab opens. You’ll probably want to start out by making changes to the home page.
3. Click the Layout icon on the Page Editor toolbar and select a column layout for the page. Unfortunately, you don’t have a lot of choice here; Figure 5-5 shows an example of a three-“zone” layout.
4. Edit the existing text by placing your cursor in the area you want to edit and start typing away.
5. Click the Save icon when you are finished making all your editing changes.
6. Close the Office Live Page Editor by clicking the red X in the top-right corner of the window.

You can go back and edit the rest of the pages of your Web site by clicking
one of the navigation links on the left side of your Web site.

All work and no play makes you, well, cranky. To ease the strain of all of the hard work that is going into your Web site you might want to sit back for a minute and enjoy the fruits of your labors. Click the View icon to see your Web site exactly as your visitors will see it.
