Graphics: Canva.com
Strong visuals are essential to every
website, and Canva makes creating them
a breeze. Use their drag-and-drop interface
to create stunning professional-looking
graphics. Many elements are free or available
for a nominal fee.
Domain name: Domains.google
A custom domain name makes it simple for
people to find you and helps you stand out
on the Web. For example, if you're known as
Zeta Education Association, you can choose
ZetaEA.com (unless that name is already in
use — Google Domains can tell you).
A Site to See
Creating a website has become much simpler —
and more fun By Terry Ng
S E D T O B E you had to know at least the basics of coding to get a website up and
running. Now even those of us who would never be called tech-savvy can just choose
a template, drag and drop the features we want, input a little content, and voilà!
We're being a little flip here, but the truth is that creating a website or just a good-looking blog
has become relatively easy. (Updating a site can still be challenging, however!) Here are our
picks of the website builders out there.
