I am trying to create a script that takes a parameter with a / in the between the directory and file. I then want to create the directory and create the file inside that directory. I don't really have a huge idea of what I am doing so I don't have any code other than the basic skeleton for a bash if statement. 

#!/bin/bash

if [ $1 ?? "/" ]; then
   do
fi

If for example the parameter of Website/Google is passed a directory called Website should be created with a file called Google inside it.

if [[ "$1" = */* ]];
  dir=${1#/*}
  file=${1%%*/}
fi

in bash, or more generally for a POSIX-compatible shell,

case $1 in
  */*) dir=${1#/*}; file=${1%%*/} ;;
