Overview of steps in Sitemonster Pro
As a rule, the process of working on a website includes three main stages: planning, implementation, and updating or maintenance.
Planning: The first and most essential stage in any project is planning. Before starting with Sitemonster Pro, think about the purpose of your website and its target audience. Create a structure of your future website and prepare its contents, including text and graphics. The planning stage is extremely important because it eventually determines the usefulness of your website.
Implementation: The next stage is the implementation of your website. The five-step Sitemonster Pro Wizard takes you through the entire process of creating your website, from initial design to publishing and maintenance. The following is an overview of the main steps required to create a website using Sitemonster Pro:
- To create a website, open the Sitemonster Pro Wizard. You can start working with the Wizard in tryout edition, without a Domainmonster.com account.
- Complete the first four Wizard steps (select the design, create the website structure, add website contents, add website modules and provide extra information for search engines).
- Go to the Publish step and start the publication process. If you do not have a Domainmonster.com account and work with the program in tryout edition mode, the website you create is temporary and cannot be published on the internet until you create a Domainmonster.com account and register a domain name.
Maintenance: When you complete the above steps, your website becomes available for visitors. It is critical to keep your website content fresh because this is a good way to show your attitude to customers and services. Therefore, update your website on a regular basis. All you need to do is to log into your Domainmonster.com account, choose to manage your domain, edit the content, and click Publish. Sitemonster Pro will then update the content.
