I spilled some water on my MacBook Air and I was wondering what are some ways to fix it. I have powered it off and I put it on a counter sideways to dry, but I’m not sure if that is the best method. Please help!

The computer needs to be examined by an authorized service center to evaluate the damage. Liquid damage is often extensive and ongoing due to corrosion.

Whatever you do, do not put the computer in rice to "dry it out". You'll just be making things worse.
Little rice particles will get into the ports, and expand, clogging your ports, and keeping most of the moisture from escaping from your laptop. Then you'll have a moisture problem and a rice problem.
If you don’t have any hardware servicing skills whatsoever, you will probably need to find an authorized service provider or send it to Apple. If you do then open it up and take out pretty much everything and let it dry.
