I'm an online fitness coach looking to build my own website to centralize my information and programs. I'm not looking for anything overly complex; I just need something simple and user-friendly, especially since I'm a beginner. I'd appreciate any guidance or tips on how to get started!

ASP.NET Core is a fantastic framework for creating dynamic websites. I'd recommend checking out the official documentation as it's quite helpful. If you're on Windows, Visual Studio Community Edition is free and can help set you up with a template to start your ASP.NET project! Just a heads-up, though: knowing some basic web development and C# will really come in handy.
You can kick off your .NET website by running "dotnet new webapp" in your terminal. Just keep in mind that while you say you want it simple, figuring out what you really need can sometimes be tricky. What specific features are you thinking of including?
Blazor is a solid choice for building web apps with .NET, especially if you want something modern and interactive. It's great for beginners because it allows you to write C# instead of JavaScript for your front-end. Definitely worth checking out!
When it comes to .NET domains, there aren’t any specific prerequisites. Just go to any registrar and you should be good to go. I've had a good experience with GreenGeeks, if you're looking for hosting options!
If you’re just starting out, have you considered why you're choosing .NET? There are a ton of other frameworks that might be more beginner-friendly and easier to learn. Just something to think about!
Thanks for the resources! I'll definitely look into the documentation and Visual Studio.
