The steps are to flesh out your business concept: what do you want your site to do?
sell something?
sell many things?
sell a service?
provide information?
provide a platform to develop your concept?
a mixture of things?
Once you are clearer on what you want to do with your site, you will want to start thinking about a domain name. This name will reflect you concept, and perhaps your geographic location – if that is important.
Then you will need to review the cost of hosting your site. For the most part this is less than $6 per month, and there are many options.
Finally you will need to connect the domain to the hosting using nameservers.
