About: Setting up a website for your business may seem complex and feel like an overwhelming task. An effective business website typically requires careful planning. You will find many design elements requiring your consideration. Luckily, the tools we have today can make creating a website as easy as using word processing software.

In this workshop we will walk through the basics of website design: picking a domain name, determining information hierarchy, content strategy, layout, and company branding. The workshop is geared toward building a business website and will be specific to business needs. After finishing the workshop you will have the foundational basics to create a website for your company. You can then continue to build, maintain, and scale it alongside your growing business.
