Self-Created Site. Is it possible to create a site yourself? Which is better: creating a website on your own or creating a website in a web design company?
To develop a website concept, an exclusive design, write all the necessary program codes, register the domain name of the site and place the finished site on the hosting – these, perhaps, are all the main stages of the site creation. Be that as it may, would they say they are as basic as it appears from the outset?

Stage one.
Stage one-development of the site concept. If you immediately take up the creation of “beautiful pictures”, then with further development it may become clear that the structure of the future site does not fit into these “pictures”. We have to change and supplement the initial project. Therefore, it is so important at the very beginning to carefully consider the structure of the pages of the site, navigation on the site, etc.
When creating a website yourself.
No one needs to explain and prove why a particular solution is chosen. However, at the same time, the responsibility for the result lies only with the developer, you will only have to blame yourself.
To create a website design, you can, of course, use free ready-made templates or even buy a couple. But a truly high-quality website is simply inconceivable without a unique design, which has no analogs in the entire global network. This means that you need to develop such a design yourself: from the first sketches on paper to a fully finished HTML-template.
By the way, for self-creation of a dynamic site, most likely, you will need a CMS – the so-called engine. Therefore, before making up the HTML-template, it is necessary to choose which CMS the site will be made. There are both free CMS, for example, Drupal, Joomla! or WordPress, and paid – DLE, etc.
If any CMS is chosen for the independent creation of the site, then you will not have to write program codes manually – the basic functionality that may be needed when working with the site is already implemented in the engine. At the same time, non-standard web applications and modules need to be written additionally or to search for the necessary solutions on the Internet.
Next step.
The next step is the registration of a domain name. In order to register the desired domain name in a specific domain zone, you must first make sure that this name is free. Special whois service will help to solve this problem.
After the domain name is selected, you must contact either the official domain name registrar directly or intermediaries, for example, hosters. Many hosters offer a domain name registration service for free if the hosting contract is concluded for six months to a year or more.
If you host the site on a free hosting, such as ucoz.ru or narod.ru, you do not need to register a domain name separately – the service itself provides the user with any domain name that has not yet been occupied by other users of the system. However, this is a third-level domain name, and the service of connecting your domain is usually paid.
The inability to use scripts (PHP, CGI, etc.) and databases (MySQL, MS SQL, Oracle, etc.) greatly limits the ability to host a site on a free hosting. Therefore, for the self-creation of a site, it is better to choose paid hosting.
When choosing a paid hosting.
you should pay attention to what opportunities are provided by one or another tariff plan. How much disk space is allocated for the site? What is the traffic volume every month? Is there support for server scripts and databases? Is FTP Supported? These and many other criteria are decisive when choosing a hosting and a suitable tariff plan.
Actually independent creation of the site came to an end. It remains only to fill the site with the necessary content. But in order for a site to become popular and visited, it is not enough just to post it on the Internet – it is also necessary to engage in its promotion and promotion, development. Website promotion and promotion require not only certain knowledge and skills but also a huge amount of time to achieve the first positive results.
Thus, the independent creation of a site with a competent approach to all its components is quite real. To get a simple blog, a fan site of your favorite group or a personal Internet page, self-creation of a site is a perfectly acceptable option.
But in order to get a commercial website that will promote your business on the Internet, attract customers and make a profit, you need the knowledge and experience of a professional team of web designers, programmers, copywriters, optimizers – a team of a web design company.
