I recently made some videos for my clients. Correction, new clients! I always wanted some sort of game plan for all my new and inquiring clients on how to start their website project. As a web designer, I always find the same conversation with some basic themes.
1. What websites do you like and your competitors
2. Get your contents such as images and text
3. We will then make a mock website
4. We proceed with web development with an approved mock site
5. Launch your site in your hosting servers
6. Train you on how to manage your site

How to put your business in Google Places
www.places.google.com/local
Here are the basic information regarding Google Places.
Why add your listing with Google Places?
Once you've verified your listing, you can enhance the Place page for your business by adding photos, videos, coupons, and even real-time updates like weekly specials all on your Place page. Verifying your listing gives you the opportunity to share even more information about your business with Google.
How it works
Each business listing on Google is in fact a giant 'cluster' of information that we get from a few different places: Yellow Pages, for example, as well as other third-party providers. However, the basic information that you submit through Google Places is the information that we trust the most. This means that it will appear instead of any basic information that we get from anywhere else. To make sure the basic information you submit is accurate, we'll ask you to verify it first by entering a PIN that will be sent to either your business address or phone number.
You can add other information to your listing too — such as a description of your business, for example, as well as photos, reviews, or information about hours and parking costs — that will also appear above similar information from other providers.
Before you get started, there are a few things to keep in mind:
Right now, Google Places is available for businesses in only certain countries.
To find out if your country is one of them, click Add new listing when logged in to your Google Places account. Check the country drop down at the top of the sign-up page. You can also check country availability on the Mapping tool availability page.
It's free.
Adding your listing to Google Places is free, and Google doesn't accept payment to include particular listings or sites in our search results. However, we do offer locally-targeted advertising through our AdWords program.
Every business listing must have a mailing address.
This is the physical address where mail can be sent to your business. If you work from home or you are a mobile-only business you can specify service areas and choose to hide your physical address later on!
There shouldn't be more than one listing per physical location.
Even if you're a doctor who is a cardiologist and a chiropractor or a service that covers multiple towns, you shouldn't have two listings. Instead, use the description of your business or categories to explain the different services your business offers.
Its a good idea to read Google Places quality guidelines to make sure that your listing will be approved to appear on Google.
To start creating your free listing, go to the Google Places and sign in with your Google account. If you don't already have a Google account, click Sign up now to create a new Google account. You can also use an AdWords login and password, if you have one.
