Create Your Website in a Week: Do-It-Yourself Course

If you're ready to create your website -- this week -- then this course is for you. (Of course, you can use this course at your own pace if you prefer.)


This Course Program will guide you through scheduled assignments that are to be completed throughout the week. On Monday- Thursday you will be reading, between Thursday and Friday, you will do some prep work, and on Friday afternoon, you will begin your assignments.

By following this program as a guide, you will create the content for a marketing-smart web site that your prospects and clients will find useful and usable. The course focuses on developing the content (keeping your target market in mind) and determining how it should be presented, how the copy on the site is written (i.e. for the web) and how the site should be laid out for maximum ease of use.


(This is the same course program that is used for the Website in a Week Group, but when you purchase the course program only, you miss out on the group conference calls. But you can get personalized feedback for an extra fee.)
