Whether you're building a personal portfolio, an e-commerce store, or a company site, your website is often the first impression you make. Here's a quick checklist to help you get started the right way:
Define your goal. Is it to generate leads, sell products, showcase work, or inform? Your entire design should support this mission.
02. Know Your Audience
Tailor your content, design, and functionality to the people you want to attract. Speak their language, solve their problems.
Over 50% of traffic is mobile. Your site must be responsive — clean, fast, and user-friendly on all devices.
04. Don’t Ignore SEO
Use clear headlines, proper tags, fast-loading images, and metadata to help your site rank on Google. Visibility = traffic.
05. Keep It Simple
Clarity beats cleverness. Focus on clean navigation, concise copy, and strong calls to action.
06. Prioritize Speed & Security
Use reliable hosting, compress media, and implement HTTPS. A slow or insecure site turns users (and Google) away.
Pro Tip: Platforms like WordPress, Webflow, and Shopify (for e-commerce) make powerful websites accessible — no coding required (but always better with some custom touches).
