It's not hard to make a clean a functional website yourself. Use Wix, Squarespace or Ecwid and you can do in a couple days. They make it really easy to make something good these days.

Good. Yes - but if you want to tell your story and not look like all the other templates out there, text me.

We can do amazing things together and sometimes it really helps to have another perspective that can sink their teeth into it, unrestrained by tools and conventional ideas.

If you have an etsy shop that's doing decent, then you're no stranger to an online store. The truth of the matter is you can make a great online site these days with the right tools. Look into Ecwid, Wix, & Squarespace, then go for it! Don't let things like SEO scare you, they handle it crazy well.

Wix will literally build a site for you based on info from Google and Facebook. If you have a Facebook page it will make you a site with their Corvid editor. Check it out.

Do not use Shopify or Wordpress. Ever. Please trust me.

Ok, hear me now. It's not hard. This gets blown way out of portion really fast.

Most of it is done for you with Wix, Squarespace & Ecwid. All you need to do is make a blog and post about everything you can think of, you will have no problems. I also can handle building something super easy to use it if you get a site through me. A portfolio also does the trick. Anything that keeps your site changing each week or even month will do wonders for SEO.

Only extremely large (and sometimes lying companies) actually have to pay people for the SEO results they want. You're golden if you get that blog or portfolio going.

This comes from a serious place, so I don't take this lightly. However, you should take one more minute to think about it like this:

Do you have two or three days to do it yourself if it only cost you your time and $30-$40 a month?

Most people don't realize how little time it takes and need to be pushed just a little to spend the time up-front so they understand how to manage it easily in the future. You need good tools and maybe that's what you need my help with. Text me any questions you got.

Do it yourself, no-code programs make it really easy to make something good these days. Good. Yes - but if you want to tell your story and not look like all the other templates out there, email me. We can do amazing things together and sometimes it really helps to have another perspective that can sink his teeth into it who is unrestrained by tools and conventional ideas.

As you may have guessed. You can start for free using Ecwid and have up to 10 items in your shop. I do that with my shop from time to time and it's great.

This will cost you about 3 hours in set up time, but no money - at least until you need more of their features and more products. Then it's only $15/mo. This is the most stellar deal I've ever seen! (No they don't sponsor me.)

Yeah that's great! I'll totally talk you through it. Text me all your thoughts, so I can soak it up. Then I'll get back to you. I'll do that for free too, but if we talk about it for more than an average meeting time then I'll charge you $50 hr. Just covering my ground little. I want to help more than anything.

This is the most important part of being a freelancer these days and I love to teach what I know because I spend a lot of time finding the best ways to do things. I never stop. If you want to learn how to do something with Webflow or how to save money on everyday business expenses, I have learned some lessons that I'd be happy to share. Take a look at my musings page to learn lots of life and business tricks. It isn't easy being a small business and every $10 a month adds up fast!

Want to learn Webflow or how I edit my images insanely fast? I have videos for that, but I'll also meet you at 211 Cafe for an excellent cup of joe and to party in person. That's my favorite, because it gives me a chance to learn too. So text me and let me know if you need help with anything.

Oh and why would I charge for that when the internet if full of people doing it for free? I'm not a boring consultant, more like your new homie who's learned from a lot of mistakes and practice. If I don't know something I won't pretend to, but let's have some fun.

I'm game to start a Webflow meet up if you are!

First thing is first. We NEVER build on Wordpress. It's crazy outdated and flat out sucks to maintain. So take a deep breath of relief, cause we have something MUCH better for you. Seriously - breathe little - I will too. It's good to do.

We build on Webflow.
They let us create custom coded sites with perfect code. We can do most anything easily and it hosts your site in the most secure ways possible. On Suckpress you have to do all the security yourself. No way dude. We've done it and will never do it again. This makes site building infinitely faster and gives you a better product.

"Fact. Bears beats...Wordpress."

You betcha. We charge a base fee for our time and then a small fee for each item you need photographed. Check out super simple pricing.

Both! Webflow makes editing your site better.

1. We can control what you can edit so you don't have to worry about messing something up on accident or forgetting to make changes to the mobile version.
2. The editor is infinitely simpler than any build-your-own site. I can create your site so that you can edit anything with just a simple form, but you can also switch out images and change text just by clicking on your working site.

With any custom made site. you give up a lot of control, but thankfully with me you get a lot of that back. What you can't do is redesign the site. That's where I come in. I made a video blog showing you exactly what this looks like.

Thats one thing we don't do for a good reason. I know you've probably put a fair amount of time into it, but there's just no guarantee I can pick up on the platform you use. I use tools that don't limit what we can do and that are 100% mobile responsive. do it yourself website builders like Wix, Weebly Squaresapce etc... don't have that kind power and flexibility. Seeing your site  partially made makes rebuilding it much faster. So not all is lost, but trust me, it's for the best.

Yep. If you have one, we can use it on your new site. We can help you buy one too. Most are only $12 a year. Not so scary, right?
