I decided to stick with the complete set of tools provided by Site Build It! as I began building my first SBI! site.
Despite doing web design and marketing for a living I wanted to check out all the tools from a novice or non-html expert point of view.
So far I find the tools to be excellent, or let’s just say that if I imagine being a Site Build It! user who came to the application without any html expertise the set up is great. The help pages are excellent and the stuff about Title tags, meta keywords and description will really give a beginner the edge over other beginners. Follow the instructions and you are set. Don’t be afraid to click buttons, and keep on clicking!
As for the content or writing dilemma the same applies here. In the end you always wind up staring at a blank editor or page of some sort forced to write. Just speak, don’t worry about “copy”, just be you and speak.
You cannot create a web site that works without writing, and writing, and did I mention writing? Yeah, you could hire it done but that is likely not as efficient or cost effective a way of getting the expertise our of your head and onto pages on the internet.
Site Build It! is about work, and lot’s of it. If you don’t want to work, then go back to your job, or stay at your job and forget about an entrepreneurial online business that will set you free.
On the other hand…jump in and start building your dream!
