How a website grows from an idea to the real thing, where it lives while you decide, and what a domain is.
SAWN is a women's network in Toronto that Milandra is building a site for right now. It shows how a website comes together, one round at a time.
Just like Bub's Bakee today: a strong Instagram and a Linktree, but no home of their own online.
Nine quick designs, each with its own colours and feel. She picked her favourite and said which other one she loved.
Her event photos went in, a new logo was drawn, and three versions were built around the look she picked.
Each logo got its own full website, ready to choose from. Next step: pick one, connect the domain, go live.
Your previews are stored on Cloudflare, one of the biggest web companies in the world. They run a large share of the internet's websites.
Where your website's pages, photos and design are kept and shown to visitors. It's like a shop window that's always open. Your concepts live here now, free, for as long as you need.
Small helpers that run only when someone does something, like sending an order form to your WhatsApp or email. You only add them when you need them.
The address you're on now ends in .pages.dev. It's private (hidden from Google) and safe to share with family.
Hosting a site like this on Cloudflare's free plan costs nothing. The only yearly cost is the domain.
A domain is your address on the internet, like bubsbakee.com. People can type it, and it goes on your boxes, stickers and Instagram bio. Milandra will register it, set it up and pay for it.
| Option | Good for | Rough yearly cost |
|---|---|---|
| .com (bubsbakee.com) | Known everywhere. Works for customers in India and family abroad. | About $10.46 USD (around ₹900) on Cloudflare, renewed at cost, no markup |
| .in (bubsbakee.in) | Shows you're an Indian business | Usually ₹500–900 at Indian registrars. Exact price confirmed at purchase. |
| .co.in | Backup if the others are taken | Usually a bit cheaper than .in |
Prices change, so the exact number is checked on the day it's bought. Whichever you choose, the same name also becomes your email address (like orders@bubsbakee.com) later if you want.
