How To Build A Website For Your Business

In this article, I will explain how to build a website for your business, and why it is important to have one in 2020 and beyond. If you don’t have a website for your business you are missing out on great opportunities. I am still amazed at how many businesses, old and new do not have a website.

You can have someone build it for you, but in most cases, it never works, simply because a website needs daily monitoring for upgrades and engagements. Most people think it is difficult to build a website, but that is not the case. I will send you to a website platform where you can start from scratch with simple step-by-step videos, and I will be there to guide you along, plus a community that is there to help you and answer all your questions.

A website can be used to accomplish many different marketing strategies. It provides an opportunity for you and your customers to interact which can help you build your brand, and attract more visitors to the business of the products that you choose.

And if you do not have a business or product to promote, we will show you how to go about choosing one, or we will choose one for you. This is what prompts me to start an online business so that I can quit my full-time job, and that happened in 11 months.

However, some people have a negative perception of creating a website. For many, they think it’s a task they cannot accomplish on their own.
Here is something to think about. What if you could make your website all by yourself without needing an IT guru?

Not only is this possible, but you do not need technical ability or to learn HTML coding to do it. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to make a website for your business.

1. Choose a Domain Name and Register It

Of course, your website must have a name that will help people identify you. Choose a name that is easy to remember. This may be a keyword that people search for, or maybe even your own name.

After deciding on the name the next thing do is to check out if it is available or not. Enter the name into a domain search tool and check availability. Most people prefer to purchase dot COM for their business address, but you can use .NET or a . INFO instead.
One of the largest domain companies in the world is Go Daddy. You have probably seen Danica Patrick advertise them on the Super Bowl over the years.

They make it easy to search for available domain names, They even offer alternative suggestions if the name you want is not available.
Domain names are cheap. You can buy one for less than $20 a year. Hosting your domain name and building your website is cheap as $5 a month.

Or the community and platform that I would introduce you to at the bottom of this article, you would be able to pick a domain on their platform, and hosting will also be available.

2. Choose a Website Building PlatformHow To Build A Website For Your Business

A website-building platform is software that does all the coding needed to create a website. You can use it to build, change the layout, create pages, and post using your browser as long as you have the internet.

There are various website-building platforms with the most common one being WordPress. If you are a beginner WordPress is the best website-building platform because apart from being free it also has simple features that make navigation easy.

However, there are also other websites building software like Squarespace, Weebly, and Wix. With each of them follow the simple steps and create your site.

I am here to tell you not only is it possible to build your own website, but it is not hard to do. Companies like Go Daddy even have excellent customer service and answer their phones when you have a question.

3. Customize Your Website

Now that you already have a website it is time to get into the fun part of it. Customizing involves deciding the theme, editing settings, and deciding on your logo among others.

To customize you should log in to your site and do all the changes from there. Some website-building platforms are complicated to use without the help of a person who is familiar with them.

This is why we are so high on WordPress. Any changes can be accessed from the Dashboard interface. And they are constantly making updates to keep your website running smoothly and compatible with the changes in the internet and different functions.

You should also remember to outline your content. You don’t have to start with much outside of your necessary information. Include the name and location of the business on the home page, the services, and products you offer, a little background information about your company, and leave your email address and contact information where people can reach you.

Details on how to set this up will be provided for you within our community, and if you just want to be an affiliate to sell other people’s products to make money, you will be guided step by step on how to set that up as well.

4. Design Your Websitehow to build a website for your business from scratch from the comfort of your home

It takes just a matter of seconds for someone to decide whether or not they are going to stay on your page. Therefore, it is important to create a good impression that will keep people engaged.

Do not confuse design with themes and backgrounds. We have already discussed it in the customizing. Designing is more to do with your audience and getting them the information that they requested would be your primary objective

Ensure that it is easy to navigate on your website. This will direct them on where to go to get the information they need. Also, add a call to action button and make sure that your pages are loading quickly.

Be An Internet Spy

I admit that building a website can seem like a very daunting task. One thing that helped me many years ago was the concept of becoming an Internet spy.
Instead of coming up with all of the ideas for your new website let your competition help you. Visit the top sites in your niche that come up in the Google search results.

Never copy verbatim anyone else’s website! However, do take the good and the bad you see and figure out if you could implement some of these ideas into your own new website.

Not only is this good for design ideas, but you can also benefit from understanding how they market their business and are ranking on Google as well. This will be an ongoing investigation and I have always found it to be a very fun part of Internet marketing.

  1. Thanks a lot for this guidance, it’s quite clear and straight to the point.

    I’ve been researching a lot and WordPress is not just another way to get your presence over the internet as BBC-America among other famous brands do (30% of the internet runs over WordPress). Due to this reason, there are plenty of resources available, nevertheless is always good to count on a well-known community to back you up in your project.

    I don’t know how to code and still have published several .orgs in the past thanks to WordPress. The key advantage: it is so easy to manage, there’s a modular solution for anything (plug-ins). 

    Getting things done by myself and running everything in a decentralized way has caused me many headaches. After researching several platforms, the one recommended within the “Community” link seems to be very promising to me due to its level of integration with WP and active community.

    Thanks a lot for your guidance!

    • Parveen, I have asked so many times by my friends and family for me to build a website for them that it is impossible for me to take on that task. so I show them that they can do it themselves and it would be cheaper. Building a website is one thing but you have to update them regular cause you would leave behind. and this is how the industry is changing.

      Anyone telling you that they can do that for you is kidding themselves and lying to you. is like giving someone your child to take care of them full-time. they would not optimize it the way you would for ultimate traffic and exposure. This is where Wealthy Affiliate comes in. they would show you step by step what you need to do for the best results. Thank you for stopping by.
