As a beginer, what certification(s) should I start taking first?

I would say the CompTIA A+. It is general PC hardware and software. Then from there it would depend on what you want your focus to be. There are too many to options to list but generally it will be hardware or software.

I would like to focus more on networks, hardware, etc. What would be the next options to consider after CompTIA A+?

When you say netwroks and hardware do you mean like network administrator? If that is the route you are interested in then I would look at the Microsoft MCSA or MCSE. If you are talking about network hardware like routers and the like, then probably the Cisco stuff. Which ever route you prefer, I would look into what the requirements are. Some certs allow the CompTIA stuff to count towards the cert. If you are talking hardware break/fix, then you would have to look at the individual hardware manufacturers. They typically have their own certs.
