Building Your Website: 4 Key Things To Know

Website Tips

December 3, 2021

Having the best results when building your website is all about the care you put into the process. The most exciting part of website design is that it can go any direction. And, even better, you’re the master of this ship! Whether you’re looking for something chic and elegant, or down to earth, there’s a website build and design meant for you. 

But, with all the information available, how do you even know where to start? Have no fear, that’s why I’m here Queen. Today, I’m sharing why it’s worth building your website, whether or not you should build a website from scratch, and four key things to know before you start building your website.

Building Your Website: 4 Key Things to Know

 

Is it worth building your own website?

Is it worth building your website!? Queen, to that, I have to say a BIG FAT YES!! Your website is the face of your company and the hub of information for your potential clients. This is where people interested in your services stalk you (with so much admiration of course) before hitting that beautiful “Book Now” button. 

If you’re having doubts when it comes to your own website build or revamps, I want you to contemplate this:

  • Is it because you don’t have the time?
  • Is it because you’re confident Instagram will ALWAYS have your back?
  • Is it because you just don’t want to invest in something that won’t generate revenue?

In case you missed it, all three questions have one thing in common. If you answer YES, you will be oh so wrong (so sorry Queen, that comes from a place of love). Building your own website doesn’t have to be time-consuming (whether you choose DIY or outsource to a pro), it definitely has your back more than Instagram (sorry Meta), and it certainly can help you generate some sweet revenue.

 

Is building a website from scratch hard?

This is one of my favorite questions to get! Because building your own unique website doesn’t have to be hard. If you’re considering starting from scratch, I would just like to slightly shift your attention to one of my all-time favorite platforms:

Showit!

Showit is a beast when it comes to designing custom websites with flair, but that requires little to no coding in the process. With Showit, my motto is “click, sway, drag & drop.” It’s as easy as that!

Building your website – 4 things to know

So, you’ve made it this far! You must be feeling the tingles of excitement and know that creating a website is the way to go. Especially if you’re ready to stand out as an industry expert and start generating more money from your website. 

But, before you start building your website, there are 4 very important things that you need to know:

  1. Ensure you know your ideal customer and what they need. ⁠This influences what services you include on your website. As well, it will affect things such as copy and SEO optimization. Your ideal customer should always be at the forefront of your mind.
  2. Know that your offer is going to solve a problem, and be powerful for your clients, RIGHT NOW. ⁠Queen, I just know that you have this one figured out. Buttt, just in case you don’t, here’s what we’ll do. To ensure your website is as beneficial as possible, you need a strong offer that is going to help you create a massive transformation in your client’s life. So, get to brainstorming!
  3. Put together a plan that fits the time you have available, and the goal you want to achieve. ⁠Your website can be as basic or as extra as you choose. But, it all has to align with your available time and business goals. Especially any upcoming launches.
  4. Be flexible. Even with an expert on-site, it is important to be flexible and willing to move with the flow. This ensures the best results. Sometimes the design concept in your head takes a little longer to transfer onto the screen. While a little frustrating, it’s important to stay focused on the big picture vision. And, leave the nitty-gritty design details up to me.
