Building a Website

Writer's picture: Candace SampsonCandace Sampson

I have had to create and recreate my website over and over again as I learn what to do and what not to do. Just when I think I have it perfect I change one little element and it changes everything and messes up every page I have created. It is a bit like childbirth, it is a horrible pain and lengthy labor of love, but it is wonderful when you get it just right and can claim that it is completed. I didn't remember what a huge amount of work it was to create and build your own website. When I realized that I needed a website, I decided that I just couldn't afford to pay someone to do the work for me, and I have done it before it will be just like riding a bike (I can no longer ride a bike without pain and suffering either), I just have to stick with it. I have talked myself into some very difficult things because I am too cheap to pay for it. Little did I remember that not only do I have to build every little element of the website but I have to write a copyrights page, a privacy policy page, and an LLC. OA, and many other legal documents to make sure that I cover my back and am legal. I had to set it up with a forum, a membership, a sales page that can take credit and debit cards as well as a calendar, and a Zoom account so we can accommodate the meetings I will be hosting. Add to that trying to keep my YouTube channel going, Setting up and building my Patreon Page, and my 4 other Social Media sites. Nothing like stepping right into the fire over and over again. I never pictured myself at the age of 62 starting a new business online and having to figure everything out by myself. I am actually proud of myself for making it this far, I absolutely refuse to give up, but boy oh boy, I stepped in it this time. I am sure that it is taking me much longer than it would most people but I will just keep plugging along because I have nowhere else to be. I even have been using Paint, Adobe, and other apps to create banners and logos, again because I refuse to pay someone else to do it......lol
