I don’t know about you but I find it not so legit or professional to email the business name that ends with @gmail.com. I know a LOT of people do that .. let me teach you how not to be one of those businesses. 

You have a domain name, lets get a good email going that begins info@ or contact@ or hello@ your domain name.

This week we design your business logo, the most recognisable symbol of your business.  I’ll teach you how to choose fonts in Canva and create a design you love. 

We’ll also add to that with images, patterns and colours to flesh it out into a brand. So that even without the logo, people can recognise the style of your brand. 

Most websites have a certain flow of how information is presented. It answers a customers immediate needs and gives them a button to click in order to buy a service / product or learn more. 

We’ll look at this to figure out what your customer wants to know, what you want customers to know and what you want your customers to be able to do.

It’s the beginning of the main tech, we started with getting the domain and hosting and emails sorted. Now its the foundations of the website with WordPress. 

Plus there’s plenty of folks who want to hack into websites, so we’ll make it more difficult by installing security and a backup system. 

I’ve also helped get a kick start by designing a simple prompting website template that shows an information flow and where to put your content. Making sure that we have Divi installed, we’ll then upload my template.

My website template I’ve provided as a starting leg up is ready to be customised by you. I’ll show you how to make simple changes, add images, layouts etc

You’ll be adding all the written content onto your pages and giving some personality in your styling and layouts to make it your own.

This is the second week of using Divi and we’ll be creating the smarter ‘builder’ template side of the site. Blog posts are great but how they get presented also needs attention.

Especially if we want our readers to be able to find more of the valuable content we share.

This is the golden nugget week, if you can nail this bit and repeat it, you’ll have a website that gets found by google and it in time will share your expertise with the world.

This is main part of your work smarter, not harder. Why do four steps of write a blog post and then three posts on social media for facebook, Linkedin and Instagram .. why do those four things when you can write one blog post and have a tool that broadcasts a unique message for you to each of those three networks. With the bonus of sharing that blog posts too on your networks. 

Let me show you some automation magic. 

Ah the week we’ve been working so hard for. The week you remove the coming soon page and say to the world .. I have a website and it now represents me and my business online. 

A good website works for you, telling people about what you do and how to work with you and your customers know what they will get and learn something in the process. Ahhh .. that feels good.

Bonus 1 – I’ll show you how to set up a Google My Business so that you show up in their search results, how to link it up to your website so that your blog posts are shared to it. What’s magic about this is that you do NOT need a business address or building to be on google maps!

Plus I’ll be doing personalised Q&A training to answer your questions from the previous weeks.
