By creating a website, you are creating an online presence. This allows you to connect with people that you might not otherwise be able to reach.

Whether you’re making a basic website with contact information for yourself or for your band, medical practice, creating a landing page for your freelance work, a multi-page experience for your wedding photography business or you just want a place to blog about your thoughts on food, having a website will give you a dynamic advantage.

Creating a website is a relatively small effort that can have a huge impact on your business’ bottom line. Here’s how to start building your website: 

1. Choose a website template: Pick a business-relevant template to get started.

2. Customize your website: Use our easy editor to add your content, business info, and customize colors, fonts and layouts.

3. Launch your website: Publish your website and watch your business grow, while managing everything — like website updates, reviews and social posts — from one dashboard, on any device.

Absolutely. You have the option to customize your website based on your business needs.

You can add site content wherever you’d like in a variety of sections; from multiple site pages, to scrollable sections that you can add to each of those pages, to a gallery of images, menus and price lists, and YouTube or Vimeo videos.

Each section in your website is customizable as well, from the name of the page, to your website’s navigation bar. You’ll also have the ability to change text colors, styles and font. It’s important to make a responsive website that is mobile and desktop friendly.

With Website Builder you’ll be able to choose tablet and desktop layouts to give your visitors the experience you want them to have.

By centrally locating all the links in one place – your new website – you’re giving your online visitors a seamless experience.

Business and Business Pro plans come with built-in SEO tools to help your website show up in search engines like Google.

In Website Builder, you’ll find the SEO Wizard, a step-by-step guide that provides suggestions on how to optimize each page of your website by adding relevant keywords and description.

In all Website Builder plans any data transmitted from your site will be encrypted using a SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate. Your SSL will establish an encrypted link between your web server and the browser of the person visiting your site.

This means that all data will be kept private; which is important if you want visitors to your site to be safe.
