How To Design A Business Website Without Paying Any Expert
There are so many ways we web developers design a website with and without using any form of code or advanced setups. Let me put you through briefly how you can develop a business website without paying any expert a dime.
Straight to the point; before you set up a website you need two things first.
1. Domain: This is a name/web address that directs people to your site pages. It usually comes with a Top Level Domain (TLD) e.g .com, .org, .net, and so on.
2. Hosting: This is the foundation of your website. It is where your website is seated and all files on it are stored.
Once you are able to purchase a domain and hosting online all you have to do is set up software that will help you with the site development. I suggest you set up WordPress.
You will need further knowledge which I will be sharing soon on how to install the software in your hosting Cpanel.
Now after successfully setting up your WordPress, you need to sketch out how you want your website to look. You can search different images online to get basic ideas. But always remember that a website will always be divided into three (3); the header, the body, and the footer.
Now, that you have an idea of what you want your website to look like you need to install a few plugins to start with.
These are a few plugins you need to set up and complete your website.
1. Elementor/Elementor Pro: One amazing thing about this website is the fact that it allows you to design a website from scratch. Elementor comes with Add-on plugins that you can use to develop every part of the website. It also has pre-design templates that can make things easier for you.
2. Contact form 7 or WP forms: These two forms are not in any way related, you are good to go with just one of these two. These plugins can be used to build your contact form. This will be a form people will fill to send you an inquiry about your business from your website without having to call you or text you.
