Building a website for your business is a little like building a house.
Get your perfect domain name so people can find you.
When you build a house you start with the size of the land. This would be like choosing a hosting plan. Maybe you don't need much more than the bare minimum now but you should also think of this as a 2-3 year plan
Then you need an email address that is as professional as you are. Now, you could create an email with a free email provider but the perception of legitimacy to your prospective customer won't be as high.
As you build your home, you need security. With a website, you protect the customer with what is called an SSL and you protect the website, itself, with its own security and backups.
Below, we have put together our suggestions for the best tools to start you off on the right foot.
