- Log into your Sharefaith account.
- From the My Account page, click on Website & App.
- Unless you already have a demo site you want to use or are a Complete member who wants us to migrate the content from an existing site, you'll need to click Start a new website.
- Select a theme from the choices given to create your site. Note: You can change your template at any time later down the road without losing your content.
- Once created, you will receive an email with your login details for your website and hosting control panel. Your website will be created under a temporary domain name until you are ready to publish it by registering or transferring a domain for it. That is the final step before you publish, so hold off on that part until you are ready for the website to go live.
