Tips:
You need to buy domain name and hosting server for your website. You may do this on your own from websites like Godaddy.com, Zoho.in, Bigrock.in … Make sure to search for best packages before you choose your Domain and Hosting provider. Compare their review especially support before choosing them.

If you are not comfortable with managing domain and hosting for your website, I would suggest you to hire an agency. At the same time, request them to buy and maintain your domain and hosting under your login details. If there is an issue, it will be easy to retain your domain and hosting server.

Mobile Responsive Website:
Many visitors are using Mobiles to view your websites. If you do not have a website version for mobile or a mobile responsive website, you are going to lose your mobile visitors. A normal website is not good for engagement of Mobile Visitors as screen size differs. You need to have proper versions created for Mobile. There are two ways to approach. Either you can create a mobile version of your website or you can make your website Mobile Responsive using HTML5/CSS3.

If you are in India and not having a mobile responsive design, you are going to miss a lot of customers.
