What you need to know before getting a website
A professional website requires more than just design. To function correctly, stay secure, and remain online, several core components must be in place.
1
Domain Name
The domain is your website’s address (for example, yourbusiness.com). It must be registered and renewed regularly to remain active. If a domain expires, the website and email connected to it can stop working.
2
Hosting
Hosting is the service that stores your website’s files and makes them accessible on the internet. Reliable hosting ensures your website loads quickly, stays online, and performs well. Without hosting, a website cannot be viewed by the public.
3
SSL Certificate
An SSL certificate secures your website and encrypts data between visitors and your site. It activates the secure “https” connection and browser lock icon. SSL is essential for protecting user information, building trust, and ranking properly on search engines.
4
Website Security
Security measures protect your website from malware, hacking attempts, and data breaches. This includes monitoring, updates, and protection layers that help prevent downtime or loss of information.
5
Ongoing Maintenance
Websites require ongoing care. Updates, backups, and security checks are necessary to keep everything running smoothly. Without maintenance, websites can become slow, insecure, or broken over time.

Ownership & Access
Clients should understand who manages the domain, hosting, and technical access. Centralized management helps prevent issues, lapses, or security risks.
Content & Updates
The website content—text, images, and media—must be accurate and up to date. Changes or additions after launch may require additional work depending on the maintenance plan selected.
SEO & Visibility
Basic SEO helps search engines understand your website and improves visibility in search results. This includes proper structure, keywords, and technical setup. SEO is an ongoing process, not a one-time task.
