How to Design a Website (Easily)
So you want to create a website.
Exciting!
Also… slightly terrifying? Totally normal.
Building a website can feel overwhelming fast. But here’s the truth:
You don’t need to be a designer.
You don’t need to code.
And you definitely don’t need to start from scratch.
Step 1: Know What Your Website Is For
Before you touch fonts, colors, or layouts, pause and ask:
What do I want this website to do?
Is it:
Selling your services or products?
Showing off your work or portfolio?
Growing an audience or email list?
Acting as your digital home base?
Once you know the goal, everything else becomes easier. Your website doesn’t need to do everything - it just needs to do the right thing.
Step 2: Pick a Platform You Won’t Hate Using
There are tons of website platforms out there, and the best one is the one you’ll actually enjoy using.
Most modern builders let you customize visually (drag, drop, done). And the best part? You don’t have to design the whole thing yourself.
Which brings us to a little secret of the internet…
Step 3: Start With a Website Template (Seriously)
Here’s what most people don’t tell you:
Even professional designers use templates.
A good website template gives you:
A clean, proven layout
Beautiful spacing and typography
Pages that already make sense
A massive head start
Our website templates are designed exactly for this - so you’re not staring at a blank screen wondering where to put things. You get a polished structure that you can customize to match your brand, your vibe, your goals.
Think of it as the shortcut that still gets you an A+ result.
Step 4: Customize It and Make It Yours
This is the fun part.
Once you’ve chosen a template:
Add your brand colors
Choose 1–2 fonts you love
Swap in your images (or clean stock photos)
Write copy that sounds like you
The layout is already doing the heavy lifting - you’re just adding personality.
No design degree required - just follow our video tutorials included with every template!
Step 5: Keep It Simple (Your Visitors Will Thank You)
You don’t need 12 pages or fancy animations, which can slow down your website!
Most websites only need:
Home – what you do & who it’s for
About – your story, your why
Services / Shop – what you offer
Contact – how people reach you
Clear beats clever every single time.
Step 6: Make Sure It Looks Good on Mobile
Real talk: most people will visit your site on their phone.
Our templates are already mobile-friendly, which means:
Text is readable
Buttons are easy to tap
Nothing looks awkward or squished
This alone saves hours of frustration.
Step 7: Publish It (Even If It’s Not “Perfect”)
Your website doesn’t need to be perfect to be powerful.
Launch it.
Use it.
Improve it as you go.
A live website beats a “coming soon” page forever.
