Andrea in Macon, GA asks, \u201cHow Do I Get a Website?<\/strong>\u201d<\/p>\n

If you prefer to read\u2026<\/p>\n

There are essentially 3 ways to get a website.<\/p>\n

1. Build the Website Yourself from Scratch<\/strong><\/h4>\n

The steps to build a website yourself from scratch include:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Purchase a web hosting account.<\/li>\n
  • Upload and install a content management system like WordPress into the account.<\/li>\n
  • Find and install a theme.<\/li>\n
  • Find and install plugins<\/li>\n
  • Organize and write all your web pages<\/li>\n
  • Add photos and other media to your pages<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    This is the least expensive option, but it takes the most work and the most technical ability.<\/p>\n

    2. Hire a Website Developer to Build Your Website for You<\/strong><\/h4>\n

    In this situation, the developer helps you select a theme that meets your needs, finds and installs all the plugins that provide the functionality you want, and helps you organize and create the content for your web pages.<\/p>\n

    This is the most expensive option, but it takes the least work on your part and requires the least technical ability.<\/p>\n

    Additionally, when you hire a website developer, you gain the wisdom of having an experienced professional guiding you with design decisions. For example:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • The pros and cons of each theme you’re considering<\/li>\n
    • The pros and cons of each plugin you’re considering<\/li>\n
    • The optimal way to organize your content<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      3. Build Your Website with an Online Website Builder<\/strong><\/h4>\n

      A website builder will provide you with a variety of pre-selected themes for you to choose from. This simplifies the decision by eliminating poor, obsolete themes while still giving you a variety of themes to choose from.<\/p>\n

      A website builder also typically has just one plugin available for each function – one calendar, one photo gallery, one form builder.\u00a0 This also simplifies things for the person building the website.<\/p>\n

      Some website builders like our WP-EZ Website Builder have pre-defined page templates that are already laid out with sample text and images. This makes it easier to create great looking pages.<\/p>\n

      Building your website with an online website builder is a “middle of the road” option which combines affordability for someone who may not have the budget for a custom designed website and simplicity for someone who may not have the technical experience to build a website from scratch.<\/p>\n

      Which of these 3 options is best for you?<\/strong><\/h4>\n

      The best way for you to get a website depends on your budget, technical skills, and time available.<\/p>\n
