If your starting out like me and doing all of this preemptively you are going to need a Salesforce org to learn on. Someplace you can make mistakes and not effect anyone else.
This is where a Salesforce dev org comes in. They are completely free and offer you all of the features of their most expensive plan. It is limited to just one user and by the amount of data you can store, but it is more than enough for what we are doing.
One thing to keep in mind with a Salesforce dev org is that it's a fully featured instance that you will have complete control over. You are the admin. There are options, tabs and features you may never have access to in the real world, in the "user" role. Since right now we do get to play Admin, let's push all the buttons and see what happens.
First, grab your Salesforce dev org Here!
If that link doesn't work just do a google search for it. Salesforce likes to move links around without forwarding old ones. If it does change I will try to come back and update it.
