What you need to create a website: a complete guide from Webman

1. Decide why you need a website

The first question we ask our clients: “Why do you want a website?”

And here the answers begin:

• “Competitors made one, so why am I any worse?”
• “I am tired of explaining what I do — I want everyone to see it right away.”
• “Selling through Instagram has become inconvenient.”

Why is this important? Because the type of website depends on the goal. Imagine you want to sell watermelons online, and you were given a blog about the life of melon crops. You are at a loss, the designer is sad, and nobody eats watermelons.

Example: If the goal is to sell, you need a landing page or an online store. If the goal is to show yourself, a portfolio or a corporate website will do.

2. Choose the type of website like clothes for a party

Imagine you are getting ready for an event. For a date — a smart dress or a suit. For a hike — sportswear. It is the same with websites:

• Landing page: like a party dress — all attention on one idea.
• Corporate website: a formal suit — serious and presentable.
• Online store: like a roomy backpack — convenient, everything fits.
• Portfolio: stylish casual — it makes you and your talent stand out.

“If a landing page is a date, then an online store is family life. It takes more effort, but the return is greater.”

3. Make a plan and structure (without this — chaos)

Before starting construction, you wouldn’t just throw bricks anywhere, would you? Well, a website without a structure is chaos.

• What to take into account:
• The home page is like a signboard. It must hook.
• About the company — tell who you are.
• Services/catalog — show what you offer.
• Contacts — without them users get lost, like tourists without Google Maps.

An example from life: Imagine you walked into a supermarket and there are no signs and the shelves are scattered chaotically. How long will you search for milk?

4. Design: beautiful but convenient

Website design is like clothing. It should be fashionable but comfortable. If users cannot find the “Buy” button because it is disguised as a bush in the picture, they will leave.

• UX design: so that the website is convenient.
• UI design: so that it looks great.

Tip: Design without functionality is like a beautiful suitcase without a handle. It pleases the eye, but there is little use in it.

5. Technical implementation: the magic of programmers

This is where the real magic begins. It is as if you only saw the façade of a house, while inside all the utilities are already connected.

• What we build websites on:
• Tilda — fast and beautiful for landing pages.
• WordPress — flexible and powerful.
• Custom development — for those who want something unique, like a Tesla among cars.

6. SEO: so that people find you

A website without SEO is like a store in the middle of a dense forest. Even if you have the best product, nobody will come unless the way is shown.

• What SEO includes:
• Optimizing texts for key queries.
• Fast page loading.
• A convenient structure.

A tip from Webman: Want your website to be on the first page of Google? Think like a user.

7. Testing and launch

Is the website ready? Wait, it needs to be checked! It is like a test drive before buying a car.

• Does everything work?
• Does it display correctly on mobile devices?
• Are there any errors in the texts?

Launching a website with errors is like showing up to a job interview in pajamas.

8. Development and support

Creating a website is only the beginning. It needs to be updated, improved and promoted.

• Add new products or articles.
• Analyze user behavior.
• Follow trends.

“A website without support is like a phone without a charger. It works, but not for long.”
