Website setup is the work of making an address usable on the internet. It is not only “buy hosting” or “install a theme”. Domain, hosting, design, content, technical settings and launch belong to one process.
The steps
Define the purpose and sitemap, register the domain, choose hosting, design the interface, write the content, build a CMS you can run, then test and publish. Analytics and search tools are connected at launch, not months later.
DIY builders are fine for low-risk pages. If brand, bookings, payments or SEO matter, an agency leaves less technical debt. See our website design page to start.
