The steps are…

- Design your website.
- Build your website.
- Manage your website content.
Getting a domain name
Simply put, a domain name (or just ‘domain’) is the name of a website. It’s what comes after â@â in an email address, or after âwww.â in a web address. If someone asks how to find you online, what you tell them is usually your domain name.
Setting up an email address to match your domain name
You don’t want your customers ignoring your emails, and they don’t want potential spam landing in their inbox. Match your email address to your domain name to present yourself as a professional, stand out among the competition, and help customers decide that you’re the right business to work with.
Design your website
Web design refers to the design of websites that are displayed on the internet. It usually refers to the user experience aspects of website development rather than software development.
Build your website
To build a website you essentially take your website files (images, content, etc.) and upload them onto a web host, which then creates a website on the internet that your customers can view.
Manage your website content
Having a content management system for your website allows you to have control of your content. It means having the ability to update, change or delete any images, text, video, or audio. It allows you to keep your site organized, up to date and looking great. So many websites never review their content after launch.
