Create a site for your small, non-profit business, portfolio, resume and more.
1. Describe the content of your site.
Before you begin, take a minute to sketch the important pieces on your site, the critical information, and the pages you want to include.
2. Create pages.
Add the basic pages to which you have made that sketch, inserting any content and images you have (It's okay if you have nothing) Make sure you create a page to be the welcome page or homepage and a blank page to be home of your Blog; You will need these in the next step.
