Hey Marie! Thanks for the generous feedback. I echo what Tawnya said. You did well to find a solution to getting your website up regardless on what platform you chose. I do hope you consider tinkering a bit with WP just to see how powerful it is. If you have a gold ticket, just watch the recording and take it a step at a time. Slow and steady wins the race 😉

Thanks Paula! Design alone can be a challenge but it’s even more frustrating when you have the idea in your head but no way to “build it”. Well now you do. Find a good theme and use a compatible page builder like Divi, Elementor or Beaver Builder. Good luck with your website and reach out to us if you have further questions.

Hey Danielle! Indeed we are very spoiled with WordPress. For developers like me, it takes a mindset shift to “let go” and do it the easy way. Although I’m still grateful to know html and web coding skills, I also love how WP abstracts this away. We can concentrating on consulting and problem solving businesses now 😉

Yes, so much easier nowadays! It’s like webdevelopers aren’t required for small business ventures online anymore as with Mark’s support/training you can do it yourself.

Marie, Mark is such a wonderful WordPress trainer isn’t he? We are so lucky he shares his knowledge at our network regularly. As for which platform you have your website through be it Wix, WordPress or HTML for that matter, kudos to you for actually getting your website online by yourself. It shows persistence, initiative and know-how to figure out how to do that. Please, pat yourself on the back for having a virtual storefront for your business. I know many VAs who still haven’t accomplished that! 😉 Here’s Marie’s website for any comment lurkers 😉 http://www.cmvirtualassistantagency.org

Great information today. I am still rather new to all of the terminology for websites. I have a website on Wix that I figured it out on my own.
I have started a word press website months ago and never got far with it. I wish I had seen this webinar then. I might have been able to get one set up easier. Of course most of this is over my head since this is new territory for me. So I might take longer then the average person. Thanks for your time and extra information.

It’s been several years since my “vision” emerged and I have not been able to put together a website that reflects that vision or that I could afford! With the information and tips that you have presented, I believe that it may now be a possibility for me to go forward!” Thank you ever so much…Blessings!

I almost forgot about how long it used to take me to change things on HTML sites. We really have it easy with WordPress. Great tips, thanks Mark!
