What’s an “Author Bio Box” in WordPress and Why It’s Important

Posted by Christina Hills | 1Front Page, Videos, WordPress Tips | 36

One easy way to generate more exposure for yourself, your business, and your brand is to add an “Author Bio Box” on your blog posts. What’s an “Author Bio Box” in WordPress, and why is it important?

While reading a blog article, you may have noticed a little section at the end of the article with a picture and a short blurb about the author. That’s called an “Author Bio Box.” It’s not just there for decoration; it serves a pretty important purpose. In this article, I’ll explain what an “Author Bio Box” is, why it’s an important part of your content, and how to set one up on your WordPress website.

What is an “Author Bio Box”?

An Author Bio Box is a brief section located at the end of a blog post or article on a WordPress website. It provides interesting and relevant information about the author. Author boxes typically contain a picture, a short bio, and links to the author’s social media or freebies.

When you add an “Author Bio Box,” is like having a mini “About Us” on every blog post on your website. It’s like a virtual introduction and helps readers connect with the person who created the content. Here’s my author box that appears on all of my blog posts.

Why An Author Bio Box is Important

1) Establish Credibility, Trustworthiness, and Authority

Your Author Box is an opportunity to showcase your qualifications and expertise. For instance, you can mention your certifications, years of experience, or any specializations. This helps build trust and credibility.

2) Make a Personal Connection

An Author Box makes your content feel more personal. Customers prefer to engage with businesses and people they feel connected to. The Author Box shows who is behind the website, making your business more relatable. To connect with your audience, you can tell them about your background, values, or interests.

3) Increase Your Visibility

Having an Author Box with your name and picture helps people find and follow you on other social media.

4) Improve Your Search Engine Optimization (SEO)

A well-optimized Author Box can help to improve your website’s search engine Optimization rankings. Search engines often favor websites that are reliable, authoritative, and trustworthy.

5) Organize Multi-Author Websites

An author bio box is particularly important for websites that have content with multiple authors. It allows readers to learn more about the specific author who wrote the article they’re reading. I don’t have a multi-author website. However, I’ve read content on other websites with multiple authors, and it’s always helpful when they have the author bio box.

What to Include in Your Author Box?

When deciding what to include in your author box, here are a few options to consider:

A Professional Photo
A Brief Bio
Your Contact Information
Link to Where People Cand Find You on Social Media
Link to a Free Download

Don’t forget to keep your Author Box up-to-date. As you gain more qualifications, experience, and achievements, remember to update your Author Box.

This video explains how to create your author bio box, and it explains the two different ways to get one as outlined below.

Two Ways to Add an Author Bio Box

1) Built Into Your Theme

One of the simplest and easiest ways to add an author info box is to choose a WordPress theme with an in-built author box feature. Many popular themes offer the option to include an author box on your blog posts. The WordPress themes I teach – Spacious, Hestia, Sydney, and Divi – all come with an author box that you can customize.

To show the author box from your theme, first go to your profile under Users–> Your Profile and put in your biographical information. You can also find it under Users —> All Users in the WordPress dashboard. Next, edit the user’s profile and change the ‘Biographical Info’ to add the author’s bio. If you want to show the profile image in the author box, then you need to set up the Gravatar photo. Last, click the ‘Update user’ button.

If you don’t want to bother with setting up a Gravatar, you can use the Simple Local Avatar plugin.

2) Use a WordPress Plugin

If your theme does not offer an author bio box option, there are a few plugins you can use to display an author box. Here are a few of my top picks:

Simple Author Box
by WebFactory Ltd

Simple Author Bio Box is my top plugin choice for Author Bio Box. First, this plugin makes it easy to have a clean, professional-looking author box. It lets you customize just about every aspect of the author bio ox – custom bio, social media link, a custom avatar. In addition, you have complete control over the colors, fonts, and background. As you design your author box, there’s a real-time preview where you can see how your changes will look. While the basic plan is free, there is a pro version if you want even more options. Learn more here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-author-box/

Author Box for Divi
by Andrej

If your website uses the Divi theme, you can create author boxes without extra plugins. Divi has built-in options for this. However, if you want a different look, use the Author Box for Divi plugin. It’s free and easy to set up. (I use it on my Divi websites).

This plugin works for posts made with either the Divi Builder or the Classic WordPress editor. You can change the author’s gravatar image, use your own picture, and add social media links. In addition, you can adjust the Text Color, Background Color, and Border Color. Learn more here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/author-box-for-divi/

Starbox – the Author Box for Humans
by Squirrly UK

We’ve never used Starbox before, but it’s one that Elegant Theme recommends. Starbox is a feature-rich author box plugin, but it is still very easy to use. You can choose your author box’s themes, colors, or options. One of the unique things about the Starbox plugin is that you can set up a “Tabbed Author Bio Box,” with one tab being the usual author information and the other being the latest posts from that author. Learn more here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/starbox/

Conclusion

One of the things that’s challenging about an online business is that it’s hard to “meet” your website visitors and develop a connection. However, adding an “author bio box” to your website is one simple way you can tell readers who you are and what your business offers.

People like to make a personal connection. As a result, they’re more likely to spend additional time on your website if they can quickly learn who you are. It helps establish credibility and trustworthiness. Also, a high-quality author box with all the relevant information will help improve your website’s SEO.

Setting up an “Author Bio Box” only takes a few minutes. Plus, it can be updated easily as your business grows and changes. So, pick one of the plugins and set up your “Author Bio Box” if you don’t already have one!

love this info. it is perfectly timed. Is there a way to check if a theme I already have, uses/ has author box? Where in my dashboard/info would I look to find out if this option exists? ( I am using parabola theme, which i really like.. but am not an absolute expert re finding all the whistles and bells;)

thanks

Teri

  Teri,
  Contact the theme designer and ask if they have an author box
  Or just use one of the plugins listed above
  You will need a Gravatar image for this to work and I see you don’t have one
  see my article here:
  https://websitecreationworkshop.com/blog/wordpress-tips/what-is-a-gravatar-picture/
  - Teri on March 26, 2014 at 9:40 am
    
    heya
    
    yep- thanks.. I went with starbox. cool gig. and, you can actually change the gravatar-avatar within the options in starbox ( assume it changes it in the profile;)… am now trying to figure out how-where it shows up. it is in my blog posts. AWESOME.. now, if I could just figure a better way to manage the optin-form that is mail-chimp, basic copy paste code into the posts- which is less than ideal…– but yeah– I am so glad I discovered your info.. it has been a huge and tremendous help in moving forward with some base level, but important things;)
    
    Teri
    - Christina Hills on March 26, 2014 at 10:04 am
      
      Teri,
      So glad it’s serving you! And do get your gravatar account hooked up with all your email addresses so we can see your face 🙂
      - Teri on March 26, 2014 at 10:10 am
        
        how do I hook up the gravatar? I changed my generic alien, to a live-face, which shows on the website.. it changed in the profile info through the dashboard- but i assume that it doesn’t go.. global?
        
        btw- in the author profile.. linking to book titles? etiquette/worthwhile..?
        
        Christina Hills on March 26, 2014 at 3:39 pm
        
        Teri,
        You got your gravatar working! Congrats! Yes it’s global. Yes, link to whatever is appropriate for your author profile. Go for it girl!
        
        Teri on March 27, 2014 at 2:07 pm
        
        yes- I’m a real boy! ( err… girl:)
        
        new question- in the author box- in terms of embedding links..
        
        would it be better to stick a link in to an opt-in form ( I do a lot of blog posts that go through linked in)… so as to get them onto my list, or would it better to use a link to my book?
        
        Assuming best to keep choices minimal- what is the best use of an embedded link in an author box?
        
        thanks so much– this is cool stuff:)

  Check your theme documentation to know for sure
Anita York on March 26, 2014 at 8:42 am

Does this serve the same purpose as Google Authorship and will you get the same sort of display in SERPs.

Thanks.
- Christina Hills on March 26, 2014 at 8:55 am
  
  Anita,
  my article was focused on the “human” factor and not the search engine factor. But all roads do lead to Rome. I am not an expert in SEO, but you can check out this article on Google Authorship https://plus.google.com/authorship

Thanks Christina. Really appreciate all the tips and tools you share on your site.

  Monica,
  Send me a link if you decide to implement an author box!
Steve on March 26, 2014 at 11:20 am

Excellent video and teaching. Thanks for sharing.
Which software do you use to make your on-screen videos?
Do you recommend that software or another for total beginners?
- Christina Hills on March 26, 2014 at 3:41 pm
  
  Steve,
  I use Camtasia on a PC to make my videos. If you are on a Mac use Screenflow
Lana H Allen on March 26, 2014 at 12:48 pm

I installed the wp-author-box-lite plugin. When I set up my profile for this, will it automatically attach to all posts previously posted without it?
Thank you for all of the great info!
- Christina Hills on March 26, 2014 at 3:44 pm
  
  Lana,
  I do believe that it should show up. But you will have to see.
  Now you just need your gravatar photo . See this: https://websitecreationworkshop.com/blog/wordpress-tips/what-is-a-gravatar-picture/
  - Lana H Allen on March 26, 2014 at 9:13 pm
    
    I set up my avatar and tested it on my blog. I don’t have my about information complete yet, but the avatar, my name, and the latest post list did show up on my previous posts. I really appreciate your help, thank you Christine. (p.s. is there a way to pm you?)
Susan on March 26, 2014 at 6:34 pm

Christina,
I just sent this article and video to my web master. I asked him to do it before but I just looked at my dashboard of my wp blog and I see there is no plugin installed for this.
Thanks for the valuable information!
Susan
Mark on March 26, 2014 at 7:24 pm

Absolutely fabulous as always Christina!

It’s a little embarrassing to admit! But I’d actually forgotten just “how'” useful and practical, the information you provide on your blog is, and your always exceptionally well done videos!

You know, as if you don’t have enough on your plate already! But you should seriously consider putting together a course for beginners, on “how to” make those really cool videos that you make with your family as cast members! They’re great!

And always entertaining!

And you could show us how you put those really cool intros on the beginning of them, and edit them etc! Just saying!

Otherwise, I’ll definitely be sharing more of your extremely helpful content on social media. Great job and keep this extremely valuable content coming!
- The Christina Hills on March 27, 2014 at 2:08 pm
  
  Mark
  
  Thanks for the kudos on our fun wacky marketing videos
  I should consider a special session on how we did that. They sure are fun to do
  
  🙂
  - Mark on March 27, 2014 at 3:18 pm
    
    Just to be totally sure that I understood your instructions. Since I already have my gravatar, do I just fill out my info in the profile section of my dashboard, then simply install the plugin and refresh my site?
    
    And it should start including my signature in all of my future posts? Will it also automatically start appearing on all of my past posts as well? Thanks!
    - Christina Hills on March 27, 2014 at 4:25 pm
      
      Mark
      Since I don’t know the specifics of your site and your theme I cannot guarantee anything.
      
      Just try it and see what happens
Diana Gardner Robinson on March 27, 2014 at 9:50 am

Hi Christina – You imply that Genesis-Prose has the Author Box capability built-in, but I can’t find it. Where is it located, please?
- The Christina Hills on March 27, 2014 at 2:02 pm
  
  Diana
  It’s under the users-> profile
  for genesis themes
  There is a heck box to turn it in

    I looked at 3 different author boxes..i chose starbox, for several reasons.. and now i am even more glad that i did:0 I like authors that walk their talk, in terms of connecting with their audiences and being real people:)

Hi Christine thanks for the post I was just in the middle of installing this wordpress plugin on my new site and was having trouble with the photo upload, but this has explained it perfectly. Much appreciated. Cheers Kim 🙂

Anton Grantham on July 9, 2017 at 7:37 am

Thank you Christina.

I guess I have an author box on my website. I never knew what it was called. Nevertheless, it shows up at the bottom of each page.
- Christina Hills on July 9, 2017 at 10:24 am
  
  Yes some themes build it in. It’s a nice feature to have 🙂
Anton on July 9, 2017 at 7:39 am

Hi Christina

I think I have an author box at the bottom of my website, especially since it shows up on every page. I never knew it was called an author box.
Marg Bartosek on November 1, 2023 at 10:35 am

Hi Christina,

Thanks for this great info! I updated my Gravatar account and added an author bio to my profile. I’m wondering how to set up the direct link in the bio box as you and Jecica have done. I am thinking there is some code involved as I don’t see a place when I am updating my profile to make the url a link for direct access. Thanks!
- Christina Hills on November 2, 2023 at 3:34 pm
  
  Marg,
  yes you have to put in html code. So just make the link in a test page, then copy the code over. I teach this in the Website Marketing Workshop that you may want to join if you need further help. https://WebsiteMarketingWorkshop.com

Testimonials

“I can officially say that I am in business worldwide!”

I am new to the business world, especially online, and to be successful I knew that I needed some sort of guidance. I took my wife’s advice and signed up for the Christina Hills Website Creation Workshop class.

From day one I decided to wholeheartedly commit and do whatever Christina said to do and that was, to keep on moving and not get stuck with details in the early stages of the program and that is exactly what I did.

I blew through modules 1 through 6 in a matter of days and at this point I could see clearly where my site was going in terms of theme and content.

Thanks to some epic advice from Christina, I successfully completed and launched my website in a matter of days.

Thank you Christina and the Team! I must say that you guys are awesome and now I can officially say that I am in business worldwide!

“I highly recommend The Website Creation Workshop!”

I’m so very grateful to Christina Hills and her fantastic team for empowering me to create and manage my website. Her explanations are clear, up to the minute. They provide not only of the necessary technical information, but also a nice dose of encouragement and strategy as well, which makes it possible for even a technophobe like myself to accomplish this project.

In addition, the structure of her course and continued support allowed me to go at my own pace, which was absolutely necessary for me. I highly recommend The Website Creation Workshop!

“I would recommend the Website Creation Workshop to anyone who wants to gain the freedom of building their own online presence!”

I am very grateful for Christina and her team to develop such a wonderful and useful course!

The workshop is so well-organized that a non-technical person like me can learn and master at my own pace. It teaches almost anything you can think of while building a website. I also had chances to ask my own questions and get answers on live calls. I feel so empowered that I can put up my own beautiful websites, and produce content that I want to share with the world.

I love the precious “real estate” on the Internet that belongs to me, instead of building on the rented land such as social media. I used to work with web developers on websites, it’s very time consuming with numerous back-and-forth emails and calls on any design idea or change, let alone the cost, time delay, and headache associated with it.

I would recommend the Website Creation Workshop to anyone who wants to gain the freedom of building their own online presence. I did it in four months with about an hour a day. It is an incredibly freeing experience to learn from Christina. Thank you!

“I highly recommend Christina’s course – and have to many, many people!”

I have been a member of Christina Hills’ community for three years now. I have appreciated her clear and understandable teaching. Christina’s lessons are very step by step so that anyone can follow them – even with NO website experience. Her process has been refined so that you just need to follow the process. You do not get lost down the many, many rabbit holes in WordPress or building a website. Her course is well organized and easy to navigate.

I recently purchased a Pinterest course from a “big name” and was shocked how sparse the information was and how much she assumed you knew. Christina is NOT like this. Her course is stellar if you want to build your own website.

Depending on the amount of time you have, you could build it quickly, or it could take you more time. It also depends what you are trying to build. My site is fairly complicated with two kinds of blog posts – one to support my podcast and one for the recipes. I have many pictures for each recipe. But with Christina’s help and that of her team, it is built and out in the world!!

I highly recommend Christina’s course – and have to many, many people.

“I am glad to have taken a chance on this course and am so happy to have completed this website!”

I have attempted to learn WordPress many times with online tutorials, and continued to hit “roadblocks” where I couldn’t figure out how to move forward.

With the Website Creation Workshop, I was able to understand how WordPress works so much more clearly and was able to ask critical questions when needed. I am glad to have taken a chance on this course and am so happy to have completed this website – one that I hope will be the first of many more!

Christina and her team have finessed the tricky balance between challenge and encouragement through an on-line platform allowing for even the most technically-challenged entrepreneur to be successful with developing their own website.

“Couldn’t be happier with my outcome!”

I, like so many, had become frustrated by the cost and the amount of time it was taking to have my site updated by other people. Even though my time is at a premium I decided to take on the task of rebuilding my own site through the Website Creation Workshop.

First, I was excited by how simple it was once I understood some of the basics, which Christine does an excellent job in teaching. From there it was a matter of following the step by step program, referring to the videos for each lesson and watching my website take form. Couldn’t be happier with my outcome and with the knowledge I have to continue tweaking my site as needed.

“Your course was very thorough and provided so much content, but in a very organized and feasible way.”

I came to this course for 3 reasons.

1) I paid an exorbitant sum for what I expected to be a top quality website. It was never completed properly and used Block Editor so I could not make changes myself. It also used a pricey paid theme that I felt was used simply because the web designer was trained only in that theme. This company’s server was hacked and they did not realize for 2 months! Only realized they could not fix this and would have to start from scratch after another 2 months!! And then they kept making other mistakes like using an email they made up instead of my real email address for the contact page. After my site being down for 6 months a mere 3 months after it went up, I wanted to fix my site right, by myself.

2) I would like to give online courses and create a new website for that.

3) I have a blog site that needed better security from people trying to put spam in the comments. Your course was very thorough and provided so much content, but in a very organized and feasible way, when it could have easily been overwhelming. I may not be your picture of a success story since the work you saw was a conglomeration of my different sites, but I was able to apply everything you taught, even moving my site myself to a new holding site.

Anything I struggled with, you and your support team were very responsive and helped resolve all issues quickly.

“Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”

Thank you from the bottom of my heart! I joined the workshop in Spring 2019 and I completed a website for my husband’s music business. It is not perfect, but at the moment it is enough for our purposes. Of course it will grow and change alongside our business.

I agreed to help my husband to publish his music (stuck indoors, Covid and all…) Suddenly, I acquired a very clear vision where I wanted to go and now we not only have a website, but have also gained a verified and approved artist status on Spotify and YouTube – In three short months ? and this is really just the beginning. And you helped with a very important piece – building a foundation, our house on the web.

I wanted to say thank you for providing a very comprehensive resource that helped me to overcome “it is not enough” syndrome and to create my first ever working WordPress website. You gave me enough confidence to finish and publish it.

Thanks a million. You are awesome!

“It is EMPOWERING!”

Christina’s Website Creation Workshop was FANTASTIC! As a graphic designer, I know how to make things look pretty! But I learned so much more about building an interesting and effective website.

Christina teaches at a pace that is slow and powerful, so all of the details have time to soak in. I highly recommend, and do to all of my entrepreneur friends, Christina’s training. It is EMPOWERING! Thanks!

“I have a website I love!”

If you told me 6 months ago I would be designing and managing my own website – I would not have believed you. For years I had people to manage my site and they never got it quite right and it was too expensive to keep having them make those changes to get it right. Now, I have a website I love and I can make changes and keep it current without the huge cost of paying someone else.

Thank you, Christine and Team – you have all be fabulous and the training and support from the Facebook Group have gone over and above what I could have ever imagined. Thank you and I am looking forward to managing my own website!

“Thank God I found Christina and her team!”

WOW! I can’t believe I created my own website! When I began this journey I was not sure I could really do it. After years of having paid others to create and maintain a website, I thought I might be getting in over my head. Thank God I found Christina and her team!

They have a fantastic program that allows you to move at your own pace and ask questions along the way. Everything is beautifully put together and well thought out. I think this is the only way I could’ve accomplished this. I did the work knowing someone was there to patiently guide and support me when I needed it. Thanks to Christina and her team for a putting together this beautiful program.

“I never thought I would be this happy with a website!”

I never thought I would be this happy with a website! I was stuck between paying AT LEAST $5000 for someone else to create a good website vs. creating a website myself that I wouldn’t really like. I didn’t want to pay that much, but I knew that I didn’t have the expertise to create even a bad website.

But with Christina’s Website Creation Workshop, I produced something that I am proud of and that is constantly getting me compliments! The step-by-step process is very straightforward and easy. Christina has “game-a-fied” the creation process so you see yourself making progress as you go. Not only do I love my site, but I’ve been able to even help some other people because of the training I’ve received!

“Christina provides a wealth of information in a clear, concise, practical and fun manner!”

Christina provides a wealth of information in a clear, concise, practical and fun manner. I tried to do my own WordPress website and ended up frustrated and with unsatisfactory results. After attending a free webinar about the Website Creation Workshop, I knew immediately that she was an excellent teacher, presenter and a person of heart.

I am so thrilled with my new website and my ability to control and grow my content over time. I ran into some challenges along the way, but Christina and her team were there every step of the way. That is a sign of a great teacher! Thank you Christina and I look forward to continuing the journey with you in other workshops.

“Super big thank you to Christina!”

After following Christina Hills online for a while I found her instruction to be very thorough, and honest in approach, so I decided to give the Website Creation Workshop a try. It happened at a time when I was struggling with another web designer, again, a grand total of four designers over a period of 15 years!!! I couldn’t be happier to not have to make those angry, frustrated calls anymore. Seriously!

Aside from things typically taking way too long, if they were even done, creative differences tended to be a problem for me as well. “What do you mean you don’t want to do that?” I find myself repeating over and over for things like “Why is the site not mobile responsive?”….. Never again!

Super empowering to not be subjugated to the will of another. With my vision, and the skills I’ve learned, I can build what I want, and change/modify it when I see fit, or necessary. Super big thank you to Christina and the WCW team for helping me get here!

“Christina Hills’ Website Creation Workshop course is The Best online course I’ve ever taken!”

Christina Hills’ Website Creation Workshop course is The Best online course I’ve ever taken! Here’s why: It’s way more than information-packed (which it is). It took me, step-by-step, to create my own website in a way that was thorough, and easy to understand, and supportive, and encouraging, and easy to follow … AND FUN!

Yes, there’s a learning curve, but after the first few modules, I was having FUN being creative, building my very own website exactly how I wanted it. I’m thrilled with the result, and I’m excited to show off my new site to a new and wider audience!

“I have found you and your staff to be some of the best in the industry!”

One of the things I love about you and your company Christina, is that you run it from an abundant loving place, like you’re caring for your fellow human. Along with all your brilliant teaching skills, you make it easy to want to stay connected to you, Christina, because you have built in the space for people to be human and change their mind or go through hard things and you support us in that.

I have found you and your staff to be some of the best in the industry to work with when issues come up. I appreciate this about you and it’s what will keep me coming back!

“Christina instills confidence and independence in her students.”

I decided the new skill I’d learn during Covid lockdown would be web design, and I couldn’t have chosen a better teacher and program than the Website Creation Workshop. Christina Hills is a teacher’s teacher ( I say that as a teacher!) She has tremendous facility teaching technical skills and breaking them down in a simple, non-overwhelming process that is actually fun, especially to a non-technical audience. She is logical as well as creative in the perfect balanced combination. She understands creative multi-faceted people who are working with more than one niche, yet provides structure and sound advice at the same time. I have taken almost all of her different programs at this point, and each one has delivered far beyond my expectations.

Above all, Christina instills confidence and independence in her students so that a non-technical solo entrepreneur can manage their own online presence independently without stress, multiple contractors or overwhelm. This newfound freedom, confidence and independence to be able to update my websites anytime I want on my own timeline is absolutely priceless. I’ve even noticed benefits outside the class, in that I am more eager to tackle complex technical things a lot more lately because of my overall increased technical skills.

Last but not least, Christina’s support team is absolutely amazing. They are the nicest group of ladies who went above and beyond on so many occasions to help me go live on schedule. You guys are the best. I highly recommend the Website Creation Workshop to anyone who wants to gain full mastery and independence over their websites and online presence. Thanks Christina, and thank you to the wonderful Website Creation Workshop team!

“If it weren’t for the Website Creation Workshop, I might still not have a website up and running!”

If it weren’t for the Website Creation Workshop, I might still not have a website up and running! Christina goes through things step by step so that you not only know what buttons to click, but why.

The knowledge will continue to be helpful so that even if I have someone else manage updates on my website, I can easily go in and make quick changes myself and will understand what I’m asking someone else to do. This was a great way to get myself going!

“I love my new site and I feel very proud of myself for pushing through my anxiety to learn so many new skills!”

Christina’s methodical and detailed approach to teaching WordPress is amazing! I had been afraid of WordPress before joining the WCW!! But Christina and her team make it all feel manageable, one step at a time.

I love my new site and I feel very proud of myself for pushing through my anxiety to learn so many new skills. There is no way I could have done it (or would have had the nerve to try) without Christina Hills and the WCW. Thank you so much!!

“I’m so grateful to Christina Hills and the Website Creation Workshop!”

I’m so grateful to Christina Hills and the Website Creation Workshop. My professional passion is all about empowering the individual – and the Website Creation Workshop certainly fits that bill as well. After several ‘store bought’ websites and feeling terribly dependent upon my web designers, it’s so empowering to be able to handle any issues that come up, to have the Website Creation Workshop as a resource if I run into any issues I can’t solve on my own, and to be able to tinker with my design and wording to my heart’s delight without having to wait in line to get it implemented by someone else, and racking up a big bill for every tweak I want to make.

I have loved this process of learning to be an independent designer, user and modifier of my own website. I’m so grateful that I was able to go away for a period of time while ‘life happened’ and come back and pick up where I left off with ease, thanks to a little help from you all. I’m very grateful to you for providing this service.

“The Website Creation Workshop has been extraordinarily helpful and made it fun to build a website!”

The Website Creation Workshop has been extraordinarily helpful and made it fun to build a website – and in a shorter time than expected. Building a website used to be something I dreaded, but knew that I had to take care of as a new online entrepreneur. I feel proud of what I have accomplished, and empowered to maintain and improve the site on an ongoing basis. Thank you so much Christina and team!
