Let's get to it and build a site!
The Site Title
Every site needs to have a title, which is why it's the first thing we ask for when you create a new site. This title can be easily changed later, so don’t worry too much about it here.
The Web Address
Every site must also have an address (like www.saadcreations.com for example) so that your visitors can find it. You have three options for choosing an address, and the address, like the title, can be very easily changed at any time:
With these first steps done, your new site should look very similar to the picture below:
- Option 1: Register a New Domain - If you want your own personal domain (like www.youtube.com, www.apple.com or www.stc.com.sa), you can pay to register it with this option. Click here to Contact us
- Option 2: Use a Domain You Already Own - If you already own a domain that you’ve purchased through godaddy.com or another registrar, you can still use our website editor.
With these first steps done, your new site should look very similar to the picture below:
You're now ready to start building your site. In the process of building your site (and reading this guide) you'll be working with:
Elements
Elements are the basic building blocks of your site. All of your site content, be it text, pictures, videos or what have you, is added via an element.
Pages
Your site can have as many pages and sub-pages as you want, since there are no page limits*
Themes / Design
You can select from any one of a number of themes and switch to a different theme at any time. This affects the look of your site. All of your pages and elements remain in place, no matter what theme you choose. We’ll switch themes and take a close look at the theme options (like changing fonts) towards the end of the guide.
With the basics done, the next step is to learn how to how to add Text to your site.
