So You Want a Website… Now What?

The practical guide to walking into your first meeting with a web designer, fully prepared.

Want a website, but not sure where to start?

Maybe you already have a business, a project, or an idea, and you think you need a website — but you’re not sure what to figure out before talking to a designer.

So You Want a Website… Now What? is a practical guide to help you prepare for that first step.

It’s not a course to teach you to code or design your own site. It’s a guide to help you understand what you need, make a few key decisions, and walk into your first meeting with a web designer fully prepared.

What’s inside?

Throughout the guide, you’ll work through:

  • Your project: why you want a website, and whether you’re really ready to maintain it.
  • Your brand: what to check before settling on a name.
  • The domain: what it is, how it works, and what to consider before choosing one.
  • Hosting: where your website actually lives, and what hiring this service really means.
  • Your options for building a site: from ready-made tools and platforms to alternatives like WordPress or a fully custom build.
  • Design references: how to find sites you like, and explain what draws you to them.
  • The basic vocabulary: terms like menu, hero, CTA, responsive, landing page, domain, hosting, and SSL.
  • The final checklist: what to bring prepared to your first meeting with a designer.

Who is it for?

For you, if you’ve ever thought:

“I’d love to have a website, but I don’t know where to start.”

And also if someone’s ever mentioned domains, hosting, platforms, or web design, and you felt like you didn’t quite follow what they were talking about.

This guide is written in plain language, with real-life examples, and no unnecessary jargon.

The goal

The point isn’t for you to come out of this as a web designer.

The point is that, when it’s time to talk to one, you can say:

“I’ve thought through my project, I have an idea of what I need, and I know what I want to show you.”

Because showing up prepared changes that first conversation completely.
