1- Choose your Domain name
Choosing a good domain name is very important to give a nice impression about your website, this can be one or two words that describe your website, make it as short as possible.
For example: for your own website your domain name can be (yourname.com)
for an affiliate website, your domain name can be (yourBusinessName.com)
2- Choose the best website hosting with good tech support
Having a website host is the same as having a home or business store, and your domain name is the address to find your home or store,
the cost of hosting depends on the company that offers the technology and services needed to view a website on the internet. You connect your domain name to your hosting provider so that when users visit your website address, they see the website you store on your hosting account.
Hosting services can cost anywhere from $2 to over $100 per month, depending on the type of technology and support you choose. You can usually get a discount if you buy an annual plan rather than a monthly plan.
3- Write a clear description of your business
It’s important to give people a good first impression, so they know who you are and what you do right away so they don’t feel confused when they visit your company’s website. Make sure your homepage’s main banner contains your image and visual representations of your services, and also that you have introductory text at the top of the page that describes who you are and what you do.
Also, make sure your main and footer navigation menus have easily accessible « About Us » and « Contact » page links so people can click on them and learn more about your business in depth.
4- Use the best content management system (CMS)
A content management system (CMS) is software or an application used to create and manage content for your website such as pages, photos, and blogs. the right CMS will help you maintain your site, and you don’t need a lot of technical knowledge to use it. but it’s good to know the basics of web development.
You should choose a CMS designed for your unique needs; different systems are used for different reasons, such as usability, expandability, and budget.
WordPress is the most popular CMS in the world. more than 30% of websites were created in WordPress. It has a huge active support community and lots of useful plugins to extend your site’s functionality.
WordPress is free and easy to install. Used by most web developers, so it’s not hard to find a developer or agency that can work on your site. I normally recommend WordPress for building websites like Portfolio, e-commerce websites, and affiliate websites because of its flexibility and extensibility.
5- Drive traffic to your website
Optimize your website for search engines following these steps
