As the title says “the steps for building a website” are pretty simple:

1. Unless you really want to hit the books and learn all about the coding you need to know so as to make web pages you get a website builder and without much effort you can produce a website or website’s that do what you need them to do.

Without knowing too much when it come HTML, you will learn a little just by building sites then you’ll be able to put that knowledge to work on the next website you build and build better and better sites as you go, you’ll be able to build your first website.

You can do a search for “free website builder” (only about 600,000 – 700,000 listings out there) and try a few out.
