Essentials of Website
What You Need to Launch a Website
Before your website can go live and work for your business, there are some technical building blocks you need in place. Whether you’re building it yourself or hiring a developer, here’s a checklist of website essentials:
Domain Name
This is the name people type to visit your site—like yourcompany.com
- Keep it short and easy to remember
- Use .com or .in (or industry-specific extensions like .tech or .store)
- Register from providers like GoDaddy, Namecheap, or Google Domains
Web Hosting
Hosting is where all your website files and data are stored.
- Shared Hosting (affordable, suitable for small businesses)
- VPS or Cloud Hosting (faster and more scalable)
- Managed Hosting (includes maintenance and backups)
- Popular providers: Hostinger, Bluehost, SiteGround, DigitalOcean
Content Management System (CMS)
The platform to build and manage your site.
- WordPress (most flexible and beginner-friendly)
- Shopify (for e-commerce)
- Wix/Weebly (drag-and-drop tools)
Website Design Template or Theme
Choose a responsive and mobile-friendly design that fits your brand. Premium themes often come with support and pre-built sections.
Business Email ID
Use a professional email like [email protected] instead of Gmail. It builds trust and looks professional.
SSL Certificate (Secure Site)
SSL encrypts your website and enables https://. It’s important for SEO, trust, and online payments. Most hosts provide a free SSL.
SEO-Friendly Structure
Make sure your website has:
- Proper page titles
- Meta descriptions
- Clean URLs
- Fast loading times
Website Content (Text + Images)
- Homepage content
- About us, services, contact info
- Images (of your work, products, team, etc.)
A good-looking website is great—but a properly built website with the right essentials is what helps your business grow, stay safe, and show up on Google.
