Getting Started

So you want to make a website. What happens next!? Here are some tips to get your started:

  1. Log in to hawksites.newpaltz.edu, and a new site will automatically be generated for you if it is the first time you are logging on..
  2. Consider what you would like to include in/on your site. Sometimes it helps to sketch it out (literally).
  3. Use the self-serve tutorials available here and through the Hawksites website, or set up a meeting with someone who knows their way around WordPress, like Kate Hurd or Rich McElrath in the TLC, to get your started.
  4. When you’re ready, be sure to have any necessary materials ready for upload on your website.
  5. Get started here.
