On our Site Builder page, click on the demo button to test create your first website.
Choose from the host of templates and themes available. Different templates will suit different website ideas better. Give as many of them a chance to see what will match your style best. Remember, the layout and design will send a message that your text won’t be able to.
If you need
When you’re done designing your website, hit the publish button.
Once you hit publish you’ll be redirected to the shopping cart with your Site Builder Free Trial already inside. We’ll put your website aside for a moment and get your domain name sorted.
You need a domain name for your website to exist on the internet. If you already have one you can use that domain name. A new domain name will cost a small fee.
Whether you decide to add a new domain or not, you’ll have a chance to review.
If you plan to use an existing domain that you own your Review & Checkout page will look like the image above. If you register a new domain that will be added to your total.
For the next step, you’ll have to create an account or log into your Client Area if you already have one. While you’re on our website, click the user account button at the top to bring down the login button.
If you don’t have an account click the button next to it to Register.
Once you’re in your account you’ll spot your Site-Builder 7-day free trial if you scroll down..
