Hey girls! I hope you liked Mondays post about website planforms! You might have remembered I said Wix was the best so I decided to make a post about that.
Before I walk you through this tutorial here are some links to some sites I have designed on Wix. The Creative Bold, Whiteness, Friends Magazine (Click on the blue text to see the site).
Making websites on Wix is fun. Let's go!
1) Get Inspiration
What is your website going to be about? (Check out this post for ideas). Search for a website template under that topic.
Example: You want a DIY-Galore website
You search happy, DIY website template into Pinterest. Here are the ones you like:
*Remember, you can't copy someone else's design, but you can use it to get ideas.
Once you put all the ideas together that you like, you might see a certain style you like. Using this create your brand. (Find out how to do this in this post).
2) Create a Wix account
In this post, I went through platforms for websites and said Wix was the best (pss, I just might. . be re-branding Destination Creation)
To create a Wiz account, Just go to their website and make one. (name, email) Now you can start!
3) Click +new site
As you can see, you will want to click the blue button in the corner.
4) Answer Questions
They will ask you about your site (so they can set up your dashboard). The questions are easy to answer.
5) View your dashboard.
When your done with the questions it will take you to your dashboard. The dashboard will have tasks on it.
6) Choose your site
You will now have the option to choose a template or start from scratch. I recommend starting from scratch, but if want to use any of the templates, go for it!
(If you want a blank template click on the button in the far right side)
7) Upload your brand kit
Now you can separately upload your logo, colors, images, and fonts. (To upload you color pallet, add your colors to a twitter header and then use the eye-dropper to use its colors).
8) Activate buttons
This took me the longest to learn how to do, but you will need to link to pages. Here is how:
8) Finish designing your site
After you have the past steps done, take a dare and click view on phone.
Make adjustments as needed.
9) Finish tasks
If your site is a blog, write a post! If you site is a shop, add store products! (Add both if you want!)
10) Share your site
Tell your friends about it, share it with family, and lastly, use your site!
Well, that is a very-brief explanation on how to do this (I hope it made scents). If you have questions, feel free to contact!
See you in the next post! And until then. . .
Keep on DIYing!
