Do I really need a website??
Is one of those questions that keep popping up all the time
Technically, no you don’t need one
As long as you have the landing page in place you're good to go
But having one does really make your business stand out
After all, there is a strong chance that after seeing your fitness business on social media
They will probably google you to look for your website
Therefore it’s always a good idea to have a website which delivers value and builds trust to any of the viewers landing on in
So with that being said, how complicated is creating your first website on a budget? Or does it have to cost you a fortune?
1️⃣ Let’s start with your hosting, this is where your website is going to live
Before we can do anything else, we need to get our hosting in place
With this your can get hosting for like £10 a month
2️⃣ Next we have the domain name, this is your website name / URL
For us at FitPro Lead Gen, our URL is www . FitProLeadGen . com
You can usually get your domain name with your hosting
3️⃣ Setting up WordPress is the next step, yes you can use Squarespace, Wix or many other website building tools available
But WordPress is used by a crazy 35% of all website in the World
Plus it’s FREE and super easy to use
4️⃣ Now we have WordPress set up, we then need to find a design or theme for the look and feel of the website
Again with WordPress you have access to 1000’s of free themes to choose from
When we build a site for clients we use Divi which is a paid theme and gives us a lot more functionality
5️⃣ The final step is now filling your website with your content, images and video
This is usually the longest part to setting up your website as it will require you to collate all the copy, images, videos and success stories you want to add to each page
⬆️ And those are the 5 steps to setting up your first website...
As with anything, this is going to take time, finalising the right theme that works for you and the content you want to add to your website
Therefore you may want to do step 5 first before looking at step 4, to make sure step 4 gives you everything you need 🙌
