• Choose a domain name

I chose “LittleIT” because it is my business name. Whats yours? When you’ve decided on a name the first thing to do is check that this domain name is available. You’ll need to choose an Internet company that registers domain names.I chose 1&1 Internet Ltd, its the biggest and safest company in th UK, it is a global company and therefore has plentiful resources and trained staff.Use their domain checker to see if your choice is available:-

 Trust 1&1 Internet for your domain name registration, from only £2.99/year!. Check now!  Please wait as this can take up to 30 seconds.

• Set up your email accounts.

Once you have registered your domain name, you’ll need to set up an email account.Lets use “LittleIT” as an example, I have registered my domain name as www.littleit.co.uk So now I can start creating email address for this domainI need an email package to be able to do this, I bought this from 1&1 Internet Ltd. Email packages start from only £0.69 per monthI now have set up various emails accounts, my main one is info@littleit.co.uk

So now I have

i. bought and registered my domain name www.littleit.co.uk

• Design and publish your Website

This could be the trickiest part.If you are comfortable with HTML etc then you could use this method,if not read on.. . If NOT see the next section.I have 2 websites, the first I built using basic software, such as a web design and ftp.Web design software to create your websiteFTP application you need to publish your design.Here is the first of the websites I built using the above method www.littleit.co.ukThis process cost me firstly for the design software, secondly for the FTP software and thirdly the space to host my website.There are plenty of software packages out there to buy and they vary from free to expensive, but you need in the end to “HOST” your creation somewhere.I chose 1&1 Internet Ltd, I bought their “Home” package and at £4.99 per month is great value, as it includes an email account and a free domain!

• Professional looking website made easy

The second website I built was using a package that included ALL the software and tools you need to get your business on-line, see www.website-example.com. This was built using 1&1 Internet Ltd’s MyBusiness Site.At only £9.99 per month it includes everything you need to get your business on-line in minutes.You don’t need any web development skills, just a good knowledge of something like MS Word.Easy to follow steps take you painlessly through the whole process, from choosing your business sector, choosing your domain name, setting up your email, to publishing your business website, all in a matter of minutes instead of hours or days.Try it for 30 days free at 1&1 MyBusiness Site. Follow the instructions, you will need to enter your payment option (cancel product before 30 day trial and its free) and YOU will have a website online within 5 minutes.The default site will consist of the details you have entered during the set-up process i.e. your business type template, your business name and address (including a really useful directions map) and opening hours of your business.Check out my example first www.website-example.com this took 5 minutes to get on-line. I have altered the default text and added some extra photos, The domain name you choose will take up to 12 hours to register, so there will be a temporary default domain for first day, this is very normal.
