• When you’re starting a website, you’ll need two things: a domain name and web hosting.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Your domain name is the address people type in to find your website. Think of it like a phone number! People dial your phone number to talk to you, just like they type in your domain name to visit your website. There are lots of places you can buy a domain name online, but my personal favorite is Google Domains! Keep in mind you will need to renew your domain name every year. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Hosting is where the content of your website is stored on a server. If you didn’t have hosting, your domain name wouldn’t be connected to an actual website. It would be like dialing a phone number that’s been disconnected! Many website builders, like Showit, also offer hosting services. This means your website is hosted on their servers.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Thankfully, you can change hosts pretty easily by “pointing” your domain to a different host. If you’re moving to Showit from another platform like Squarespace or Wix, the Showit team will help you configure your domain correctly so that it points to their servers!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Got more questions about "techy" website things like domains and hosting? Drop 'em in the comments or shoot me a DM, I'd love to help!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📷: @patyaraujophotography

  • Last month, I had the amazing opportunity to attend the @risingtidesocietyroadtrip and meet founder @nataliefranke.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ One of my core values in my business is relationships. Both fostering meaningful relationships with my clients, and within my creative community at large.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As a creative entrepreneur, a lot of people don’t really get what I do or why I care so much about it. But my RTS peeps? They get it.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ At the event, Natalie told us that she started the Rising Tide Society because she felt so lonely in entrepreneurship. Thanks to her, I have never felt that way, ever.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The friends I have met through RTS are my greatest confidantes and cheerleaders. I know that if I have a business question or struggle, I have a support network waiting to help or be a listening ear.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you haven’t connected with your local Rising Tide/Tuesdays Together chapter, I highly encourage you to do so!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And I’d love to hear in the comments, what communities are you a part of that you love?

  • As a former teacher, I probably shouldn’t admit this but…⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I HATED giving out homework to my students. (Seriously, if you want a good rant, ask me about reading logs).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So it’s kind of hilarious to me now that I LOVE assigning homework to my clients.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Why?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Because while I am the expert in web design, YOU are the expert in your business. Your website needs to be optimized and strategic, but it also needs to speak to your audience and feel like you!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Homework allows you to communicate your goals and vision for your website, both at the beginning of the process and as feedback throughout.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So, if you’re looking for someone to do all the work for you and hand over a beautiful website a few weeks later, we probably aren’t a good fit. But if you want someone empathetic, who will listen to you and turn it into a luxurious web experience for your clients, I’m your gal!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And don’t worry, if you miss a due date or mess up an answer, I won’t call your mom (my sixth graders weren’t so lucky).⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Are you ready to collaborate to create a website with beauty and brains? I’m now booking clients for spring 2020, DM me to learn more!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ And tell me in the comments...how did you feel about homework as a kid??⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📷: @patyaraujophotography

  • Who else LOVED the new Taylor Swift documentary on Netflix?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I had to laugh at how many of my friends texted me after watching; I guess I am everyone’s go-to T Swift friend. 😂⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It’s no secret around here that I’m a huge Swiftie. The sparkly dresses, the heartfelt lyrics, the catchy choruses...I love it all. But I think most of all, I respect Taylor for being an outstanding businesswoman.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When Swift released her latest album, Lover, it came after months of teasing, hinting, and releasing small details along the way. Talk about launch strategy! By the time August 23rd came around, I was dying to listen!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Taylor Swift is talented, sure, but so are lots of musicians. I think her true genius is in creating a community and amazing experience around her brand. Fans love decoding the clues leading up to an album release. Her concerts aren’t just shows, they’re interactive experiences.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Imagine if we applied this strategy to our own businesses! As a wedding pro, you’re not trying to sell out stadiums, but you are trying to book out your services! A beautiful and strategic website can help you create that experience immediately for your clients.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What do you think? Anyone else aspire to be more like T Swift in your biz?

  • If you’ve ever been to the post office, you know what a bad user experience is like.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I don’t know about you, but I avoid the post office at all costs! When I do have to make the trek, I end up feeling like:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “Why isn’t it easier to buy stamps?”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “That line was ridiculous!”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ “Will my mail even make it to its destination?”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ How much better would it be if I could leave feeling like: “Wow, that was SO easy! I can’t wait to mail more stuff!” (a girl can dream, right?)⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ The truth is:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Great experiences don’t happen by accident; they are intentionally designed.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As business owners, we strive to create amazing client experiences, but how awesome would it be if that experience started the second someone landed on your website?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Put yourself in the user's shoes. What’s going to make this experience helpful and useful for them? What’s going to make them want to reach out and inquire with you?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments! Any other post office haters out there? 😂

  • If there's one thing I learned during my time as a teacher, it's this:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Done is better than perfect.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ When I had one hour every day to grade, lesson plan, call parents, meet with my colleagues, and complete paperwork, I learned to work pretty speedily and prioritize what really needed to get done!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Now as a business owner, I've had to remind myself of how true this is! Parkinson's Law states that a task will expand to fill the time given to complete it. So if your goal is to launch your new website by August, it's going to take you until August. If your goal is to launch next month, you're going to have to embrace "done is better than perfect," and you'll get it done in time!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Working on your website, or on anything else in your business, isn't a math problem. There's no one "right answer" that you'll eventually reach if you just think about it or work on it more. The truth is, after a certain point, you're probably improving on something so marginally that it would have been more profitable and worth your time to have launched an earlier version!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So here's me giving you the push you need to:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✨ Launch that website⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✨ Send that email blast you've been putting off⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✨ Schedule that Instagram post⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What do you think? Any other recovering perfectionists out there?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 📷: @patyaraujophotography
