I just put together a simple website using GoDaddy.com’s Website Tonight tool. And if someone as technically challenged as I am can do it, I figure anyone can. GoDaddy has a number of templates to choose from, adapted to different professions and interests. Mine isn’t the greatest author site on the Web, not even close, but it’s not embarrassing either, and it provides a Web presence for my memoir, Reversible Skirt, which will be published by RockWay Press at an, as yet, undetermined date.
So, if you’ve happened upon this post and you’ve been wanting to get a site together but haven’t done anything about it, check out GoDaddy (or a site with similar tools), and get going. I wish I’d done it long ago. And if you want to see an example of one of GoDaddy’s templates applied and live on the Web, visit www.lauramchaleholland.com. Feeback is most welcome.
