4 Basic steps to set up your site The core ingredients you will need are a domain name (ie. myname.co.uk), an email address (easy to set up with your domain name registrar), a website host (someone who stores your website’s files on a server) and optionally a piece of free software called WordPress (helps you manage your website without having to know any HTML etc).
