I don’t know how certain solutions will really work until I test them “in the wild.” So that is where you come in. In exchange for your willingness to work with it and give me honest feedback, you get it at a lower price and you will also have access to all updates and content I will ever create for it.

Both!

We start out by building one powerful page that you may eventually unfold into a whole website. So many people who go on the DIY journey get overwhelmed by the number of pages they think they need to create to get started, but I have come up with a structure for this one page that will effectively communicate to your ideal clients who you are, what you stand for, and how you can help them.

No problem!

We cover this in Module 1. I walk you through how to choose and register a domain name as well as how to properly set your name servers (point the domain at your site).

You will pay your domain registration fee separately to the domain registrar of your choice.

Your Show Up! experience includes one year of free hosting on our dedicated server. You will not need to worry about getting a hosting account on your own. (Whew!)

A few factors besides tech savviness will come into play in any DIY web design experience. These include, but are not limited to:

• motivation
• determination
• ability to let go of the need for perfection
• ability to take a break when you need to

I try to address all of these factors within the Mindset Checks in each module, so you are covered there. I think that once you are able to address common mental blocks that pop up, you will more easily be able to take on the tech end of things. (Plus, my tech tutorials are geared toward the beginner, and you are free to ask any questions at any time, and I will answer either through a response to your comment, or I will create a whole new tutorial to address it.)

Great question!

There are many ways in which the Show Up! solution is distinct from your average online website builder:

1. The Show Up! experience is created specifically for service-based entrepreneurs, i.e. coaches and consultants.

2. It is a supported DIY experience, meaning that a real person is on the other side to help you and even create a whole new tutorial to add to the library if enough people ask the same question.

3. Once you have paid in full, you own your site. That means that if you want to, you can migrate it wherever you want. Other website builder solutions have you pay a monthly fee indefinitely to “rent” your site. Once you stop paying, your site is gone! Plus, you can’t just migrate it elsewhere. You would have to completely rebuild it in its new location.

4. Your site is built on WordPress, the most widely used content management system in the world.

I created this solution in part because new clients were coming to me having already tried with Wix and similar platforms with less than satisfying results. In each case, a total rebuild was necessary. I would rather have a scaleable solution already in place so that you and your website can grow and evolve together.
