From Mystery to Mastery: Creating and Maintaining your own Successful Website

My clients tell me that there is a certain techno-fear around running a website. And there used to be good reason to fear. After all, if you wanted an online presence you had to hire a webmaster, someone who knew a "secret" language like HTML or Java. This person would create a website in the unknown language. The behind-the-scenes part of your website was shrouded with mystery and you were the hapless bystander, with all power in your webmaster's hands. This led to certain levels of, shall we say, frustration. There's just something about having to wait - sometimes a loooong time -- for someone to make changes on your website, when it's what your business needs right now.

But, happily, you don't need to use a webmaster for anything anymore. With a domain name and web hosting (something I can coach you through), you can quickly and easily create your own successful, professional website. In my Website Creation Workshop, I step you through the use of Wordpress, a free software program, to create your own website - or convert an existing one and fire your webmaster!

With Wordpress, you are in charge. If you want to make changes to your website, you or your staff can make them immediately and easily, from any computer. You don't need to know technical details; Wordpress speaks your language. I will show you how to set up and maintain a website with all the features you need to make your business thrive: a shopping cart, autoresponders, audio and video, banner ads, and much more.

In the workshop you get individual coaching in a small group setting, giving you the time and attention you need to create and continue your website, from start to finish.

There is nothing more to fear. No more battling web developers and all their associated costs. No more behind-the-scenes mystery. The Website Creation Workshop allows you to go forward and build your business the way you want to, on your terms. Empower yourself to build a focused, successful web presence with ease.

What are your success criteria? - Out of curiousity, what has to be present for you to know that your business is a success? The top three things for me are: 1. Maintaining a 6 figure income year in and year out. 2. Creating and promoting my own products. 3. Income not solely dependent upon my personal effort. How about yours?
