I need a business website
If this is you, then there is one thing you should be sure of - do you have the time and design skills to build your own website? Very often those with the best intentions spend a lot of time and money learning how to build a website, but never follow through due to not having enough time to build the website and run a business at the same time. We don't want that for you.
In some cases you might be better off finding a local web designer to build the website for you, while you manage the day to day running of your business. It can be tempting to do it yourself, but at the end of the day it will take time to get a professional website designed, built and optimised.
If you have that creative spark and want to build and deploy your own website, then we suggest starting with Adobe Photoshop and WordPress. Photoshop will get you familiar with working with images on the web and WordPress will enable you to build content managed websites reasonably easily. Once your website has been built WordPress provides the tools to update and manage your website online.
Once you website is online, that is only the beginning. What good is your website if it does not help bring in new business? Promoting your website online can be outsourced, but if you have the time, we offer the courses that will allow you to get started.
We suggest the following courses for you
