In this episode, Malinda tackles a daunting topic for many entrepreneurs and digital course creators: building your dream website. She starts by explaining the critical role a website plays as a business's home base, immune to the changing landscapes of social media platforms.
Key Takeaways:
- Building a website is crucial for a stable online presence. Unlike social media, a website is a permanent digital real estate that secures your business from future disruptions.
- You don't need advanced technical skills to create a website. Platforms like WordPress, Squarespace, and Wix offer user-friendly tools suitable for beginners.
- Start with the basics and prioritize functionality over aesthetics. Focus initially on a clean homepage, an about page, and contact details to build a strong foundation.
- Overthinking and striving for perfection can hinder progress. It's important to avoid obsessing over minor design details and instead aim for getting the website live.
- Invest in a professional plan for better control and branding. Free options are limited; a paid plan allows more customization aligned with your business needs.
