Whether you are a beginner or just looking for an easy way to design a beautiful site, this tutorial has got you covered. So without any further delay, let's dive in!

We will cover our journey in a few steps:

Step 1: Create an Account on Canva

Step 2: Choose a Design for Your Website

In the Canva dashboard, search for "website" and you will get different website designs to choose from. If you are looking for a specific category like an educational website or a business website, you can click the dropdown and choose the category.

For example, let's check this one here. You can see a preview of the design. To use it, just click Customize. Another way to start is by clicking Create a Design button, then type "website" in the search bar and click on it. Choose any design you like.

Here, I am going to choose this design. Click Apply All Pages to apply the design to all pages of your site.

Step 3: Edit the Contents of Your Website

To change any text, simply select the text you want to change and enter the new text. You can adjust the size of the text by clicking the size option.

If you want to change an image, click on Elements, search for "product", and then click on Photos to see different images to choose from. You can also upload your own image directly from your computer.

For example, I will now change the logo. I'll delete the current logo and upload a new one from my computer. After uploading, use the Edit Image feature to remove the background to make it look more professional.

Repeat the steps for other pages. For instance, if you wish to delete a page and create a new one, you can do so. On the new page, you can add things like the latest blogs, image frames, titles, short descriptions, etc.

Step 4: Add Animations and a Navigation Menu

You can add animations to your content. Select the page, click on Animation, and choose an animation.

To add a navigation menu, go back to the editor, select the page, and click on Notes. Type the name for the page. Repeat for all pages. Once done, you can see the navigation menu on your website.

Step 5: Publish Your Site

To publish your website:

  1. Click Publish Website.
  2. Choose to get a new domain, use an existing domain, or publish with a free domain.
  3. Enter the domain you want (e.g., "eco-friendly-goods").
  4. Enter details about your website, such as title and description.
  5. Click Publish.

Your website will now be live on the internet. To view it, click View Website.
