Build a website in a day

This workshop will show you how, in the space of one day, you can go from having a business, to having an online business, allowing you to put your services in front of customers 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

We will show you how to create and promote a website at no cost, examining the various plug-ins and widgets that can help you market your business better and tell you about the types of content your customers want to see.

Once your website’s up and running, we’ll share our tips on the most important step – how to make sure people are looking at it. You will leave this workshop with a functioning website which you can take away and continue to develop for your business.

Once you’ve completed this workshop, we’d recommend doing our SEO made simple workshop to help you make your website more visible and get ahead of your competitors online.
