“I feel a real sense of satisfaction, knowing that I essentially ‘own’ my own website”
I have wanted to create a website of my own for years. Although I’ve technically had a several sites in the past, I’ve always had to rely on “middle men companies” such as Yahoo, Wix, etc. The problem is going that route though is that you will always be stuck with that middle entity, and even if you use one of their “easy” pre-built templates, it will likely need additional editing done – that you have to still have pay someone else to do (and each and every time you need something changed)!
The great part about coming across the Website Creation Workshop with Christina Hills and her team, was that they are able to teach you how to essentially take control of the entire process of having your own website, including the design and hosting – and ultimately at a very high level.
The course was well structured, encouraging, and had a true plethora of easy to follow “how to” videos to show you the way on each element of creating your own website!
Having just completed the course and now ready to go live, the final product is beyond my expectations, and I feel a real sense of satisfaction, knowing that I essentially “own” my own website and my own place on the web now, compared to “just renting” my webspace previously. Also on top of truly owning my website, I know how to do my own maintenance to boot – and yes, even build additional “cyber properties” of my own in the future!
