Read more to find out how to make your first website.

A simple website usually has the following information/pages:

  • Welcome/Home page should clearly show who you are and what you offer
  • Products or Services page describing what you can do for your clients
  • About page
  • Contact information: phone, email, and address
  •  

    Once you have your basics there are other things to consider when creating your website.

    Consider photography

    If you can afford it you should hire a professional photographer. At the very least take some photos yourself on a decent camera or you can even use stock photography in a pinch

    Consider your brand

    Do you have a logo? How about colors or fonts that represent your brand? All of these should be mulled over when building your site. Often times your website is the first thing a client sees of your brand.
