What do I Need for a Website?
 So you’re a small business owner or
someone with an idea and
thinking about owning a Website
but don’t clearly understand the
technical lingo and are not sure
how it all works.



Web Site Options
 One option is to hire a Website
developer or Web designer to build and
manage your Website, clearly this is the
more expensive option up front. Small
business owners or individuals on a
tight budget do have a second option to
keep the cost of a Web site at a
minimum, build your own Website.


Build My Own Website?
 Sea N Sun as well as most Website
design companies would prefer you
hire us to build and manage your Web
site for the obvious reason; we make
more money, but if you can figure out
how to use Facebook® or similar you
can build your own professional
looking Website with little or no
experience.


How can I build a Web Site
 Sea N Sun offers over 1,500 templates to choose, so
pick a design, type your content, add pictures and
publish your new Web site, it’s that easy. As you learn
you can use formatting and advanced features to
enhance your new Web site further.



Web Designer or Build a Website
Step 1 – Web designer or Build my own
 Decide to hire a Web designer or build your own Website.

There are many major differences doing it yourself verses a professional
Web designer and a professional will likely produce better results in
search engines giving your site more visibility to people searching the
Web. But if you have a desire to build your own site don’t let this
discourage you, with a little effort and learn as you go attitude you too can
produce satisfactory results.



Develop Ideas for Website
Step 2 – Develop a clear idea
 Develop a clear idea what you want or need on a
website.
You need to have a clear idea what you want on your
website whether you build it or need to relay your ideas
to a Web designer.



What do I need on a Web Site
Think about how many pages you need to cover basic
information you want to relay and publish, expanding the site
can be done later. The landing page (some call it Home page)
should outline all your services or products with links to the
other pages. If you offer two types of service then you might
want a page on each to detail those services. Other pages
might include an about us, contact or meet our staff etc., also
think about forms, social networking or affiliations you
might want to display on the pages.


Domain Name
Step 3 – Purchase a Domain Name
 Search for and purchase (register) a Domain Name

A domain is a name you use to identify the address of your
Website. A domain name is like your home address; just as a
letter addressed to 52 Main Street, City, State, and Zip Code
allows the post office to find and deliver your mail, a domain
name allows Web users to find your Website.


What is a good Domain Name
Example: John sells used books and thinks it would be
cool to have www.johns.com but a better name would be
www.johnsusedbooks.com. Why is
www.johnsusedbooks.com better? It will produce better
search results with search engines like Google®, Yahoo®,
and Bing® to name a few.



Hosting
Step 4 – Purchase Hosting
 You need to purchase hosting

Now that you own a domain name you need a place for
the Web Site to live and be found. Hosting companies
provide a Web server and private folders that store the
files (pages) that make up the Web Site.


That’s all you need to get a basic Web site up and running. Please contact us with questions or
for information on a more advanced site.
