You just never know when something unexpected will happen. Of course, it usually happens when you least expect it, or when you’re not ready for it. These unexpected delays are a normal occurance in life, as well as when you are trying to setup a website!
The past week I had to deal with some personal issues, and had absolutely no time to continue on with this site. But now I’m back, and will be continuing on with the finishing of the building of this website.
Sometimes delays throw you for a loop, but to have a successful website, you must push on and try to finish or continue on with what you have started.
If you’ve wondered why there’s been no posts for the last week, the above is the answer for the delay. Keep reading and following on now to see how the rest of this site is developed. Thanks for checking it out.
It’s not very often that you get to see a website being created bit by bit online (unless its your own!), WHILE it’s being created! I hope you are enjoying and learning from this behind the scenes look of a website creation.
Normally, when you visit any given website, it is already completely done before you ever reach it. It’s just sitting there waiting for you to do something. Order a service or product, get product information, subscribe to a list, read a blog, watch a video, download an ebook, etc., etc. If you haven’t produced all or any of the many different types of websites that are possible, you may not realize all the work that goes into creating one. I’m sure you have made “one” type of website (adsense sites are easy!), or perhaps are getting ready to do so if you are just starting out. This website that you are at here right now, incorporates a lot of different items and methods that can be employed into a website. I may have went a bit overboard with all the things herein, but it’s purposely done that way so you may be able to decide if the technique (or tool, software, etc.) will be appropriate for your own websites.
A website creation can take many forms depending on what the website owners purpose for that particular site is. My purpose here is to hopefully teach you something or give you ideas about making a website. Also, reaching the goal I have set for this website would be nice, too
If you have comments, questions, ideas or suggestions, don’t hesitate to post a reply! Good or bad, I promise I’ll let your thoughts be published on the page. Let me know, are you finding this site beneficial? Are you learning something new? Or am I wasting my time?
This behind the scenes look of a website creation changes from day to day as the sections get completed. Be sure to bookmark it so you can come back later to view the parts that aren’t working today! I’d also appreciate you spreading the word about this website, use one of the bookmarking buttons below this post!
I intended on trying to make a posting every single day, but thats not really working out very well. However, it’s been a busy 3 days! I’ve got a lot of things done to this site, just read the last 9 posts that I wrote today! That’ll show you what I’ve been doing these last few days.
Had to stop to make these update posts so I don’t fall too far behind! It doesn’t help that I’m not spending ALL of my available time creating this site, but if I did, it wouldn’t really resemble the way most people would work at making a website part-time, now would it?
I would suspect that most people who have regular jobs, or are trying to start doing “online marketing” only get to spend at the most 3-4 hours a day to produce their own websites. The rest of the time (or part of THAT time) is probably devoted to learning, reading ebooks, checking email, etc. (???)
You tell me, please comment here… are you working part-time at this? how do you divide up all your online activities? How busy do you get with any specific activity?
I started the main products page 5 days ago. It’s finally done, even though I haven’t installed the JV manager yet. Took about 2 hours to complete (on top of the time I already put into it) because I set up 2 payment buttons, made the dual order pages, uploaded all the zipfiles, created the necessary scripts, plus made dual thank you pages.
This site is coming along, although not quite as fast as I’d like. I am creating this website all by myself, and not using any outside help (or my staff), to be able to show you (roughly) how long it takes to create a site like this one (you just have to add up the times I listed from each post!). Your time spent may be more or less, depending on how well you can use the tools and resources you have available at your disposal! Plus, it all depends on what type of site you are producing. This website has a bunch of things that you probably won’t need (like dual order & thank you pages) and some other items that might not be useful to what you are producing.
So since I now have the main products page finished that is being offered on this site, the one that will hopefully net $1000 in sales for me to reach my goal, please take a minute to check it out! (& maybe order it???) main product
When you set something up like the dual order pages that I have, it’s necessary (most of the time) to have dual thank you pages. I suppose you could get away with just one (maybe), but I prefer to set things up individually. That way there is no confusion for the customer as to exactly what they are getting.
Depending on how many products you are selling, or, actually, how many different zip files you have for those products, will depend on how long it takes you set up your thank you page / download page.
For my small product offeringthank you page (which is the download page), it took about 20 minutes, including the time to set up the scripts for the downloads. Thats for both pages too, as I used the first page as a template for the second!
