STEP 1: CHOOSING YOUR DOMAIN

A domain is your website’s unique address on the internet, so it’s crucial to select a domain name that’s both memorable and relevant to your business. Consider the following tips when selecting your domain name:

  • Keep it short and simple
  • Make it easy to spell and pronounce
  • Use keywords related to your industry or services
  • Avoid using hyphens or numbers

STEP 2: CHOOSING YOUR HOSTING PROVIDER

A hosting provider is a company that stores your website’s files and makes them accessible to users on the internet. There are various hosting providers available, each offering different features, pricing, and levels of support. Sofrono Media is proud to partner with GoDaddy and Kinsta as our official hosting providers. Customers can choose either service depending on their needs, or they are free to select their own hosting provider.

GoDaddy is an affordable and popular choice for small businesses and startups. They offer a range of hosting plans, including shared, VPS, and dedicated hosting, making it easy for businesses to scale as they grow. GoDaddy is known for its user-friendly interface, 24/7 customer support, and a wide variety of features to help you manage your website effectively.

Kinsta is a premium hosting provider that specializes in managed WordPress hosting. It’s an ideal choice for businesses that prioritize performance, security, and scalability. Kinsta provides lightning-fast load times, daily backups, and proactive security measures to keep your website safe from hackers. Their hosting plans come with expert WordPress support and access to cutting-edge technologies like Google Cloud Platform.

When selecting a hosting provider, consider factors such as your budget, the size of your website, and the level of technical support you require. Both GoDaddy and Kinsta are excellent choices, but it’s essential to choose a provider that aligns with your business’s specific needs and goals.

STEP 3: SETTING UP YOUR CORPORATE EMAIL ACCOUNTS

Establishing a professional email address using your domain name (e.g., yourname@yourbusiness.com) enhances your brand’s credibility and helps build trust with your customers. We’ll assist you in setting up customized email addresses for you and your team, ensuring seamless integration with your website and hosting provider.

STEP 4: BUILDING YOUR WEBSITE

With the foundational elements in place, it’s time to create your website. We’ll work closely with you to design a visually appealing, user-friendly, and responsive website that effectively communicates your brand’s message. Our custom websites for small businesses typically consist of 1-5 pages, including:

  • Home
  • About
  • Contact Us
  • Services (1-2 pages)

While we encourage clients to provide their own copy and images, Sofrono Media also offers copywriting services and access to stock images for an additional fee, ensuring your website’s content is polished and engaging.

STEP 5: SUBMITTING YOUR SITEMAP TO SEARCH ENGINES

Once your website is complete, it’s essential to submit your sitemap to major search engines like Google and Bing. This step ensures that search engines can easily crawl and index your website, making it more visible to potential customers searching for your products or services. We’ll handle the sitemap submission process for you, giving your website the best possible chance of ranking high in search results.
