Setting up a website for a business? - Teri and Kate - 04-08-2014 07:32 PM

I am trying to set up my own website for my business in hopes of saving some money. However, I don't even know if that is even a possibility. Just not sure if it should be left to a pro. Anyway, my question so far is, I bought a domain, and it's called: http://www.bloomsalonandspa.net/ But, when I get there, I don't see anywhere that I can log in and start building the website? HELP...LOL!!!
I have a host, it's called (ipage)

Hi,
Which domain provider did you purchase your domain through?
Also, to build a website you will either have to purchase website hosting from one of the providers or you can build a free website with certain services such Weebly of Wix.
Here is a list of a few of the best website hosts and a short description about each: http://entrepreneurlead.com/tools-resources/wpbdm-category/web-hosting/

And when you build your site, you can use this 15-point website checklist: http://entrepreneurlead.com/15-point-website-checklist/

You should check it out before you even start building your site. Let me know if you have any further questions. Good Luck Smile

Hi Teri and Kate,

Creating a website sounds hard but it is very easy.
To make it simple and short, all you is the following:
1) Buy Domain
2) Find Web Host
3) Design website (I recommend Wordpress. Any beginners can use it and can create something that looks really professional)

This article explains how to create a website Step-By-Step from the beginning.
