I think you have to remove the word "finished" from your mind. Websites are never finished. Unlike a book, where every word has to be polished and perfect before you go to print, websites can grow and improve over time. Something is always better than nothing
With a new domain I usually start by setting up hosting, installing wordpress, and making a few posts about my plans for the site. That gets it indexed for the terms/language I will be using later. If I don't get around to developing it for a while I stop by occasionally and add another post.
