Why EVERYONE Should Have a Personal Website

[@PeterElbaum]

Will you take me up on this advice? Here's a good first step: go claim the .com domain of your first and last name!

[@mariarobinson1100]

Do you have any recommendations for a free host for a website?

[@PeterElbaum]

@@mariarobinson1100 likely Squarespace for most people!

[@mariarobinson1100]

@@PeterElbaum thanks! Will check it out!

I Have had registered domain since 2015! I haven't built anything with it yet... This just might about to change. Soon!

I've been thinking about having a personal website for years but just never knew why and what I would put out there. But your video really helped me to get some idea. I like what you said about having an online home. And it not being something to boast about how awesome you are but more just about who you are. Thank you for this. Really appreciate it.

[@sathitsaprasomsup1748]

I always have my personal website. Can't live without it. It's like my online home. I own everything I posted. I can have a unique layout and there's no limitation on how I tell my story visually. It's professional, I can show my design skills and so on. And it takes time and thought to actually post or do something. Unlike social media where it's too easy to share something unthoughtful. Blog/website forces you to think more, craft more and I like that.

[@jacquesverwey216]

Sounds great. I've been thinking of creating my personal website but was trying to think why. Your description makes complete sense and has helped me to get some idea of the why. If you are willing, could you please share a link to your website?

currently preparing for my website launch. picked a date, bought a domain name… oh man!

Congrats!

I don't have a business website but I sell on Etsy. Should I have a personal website telling people what I sell and where and maybe open a website for selling at a later date, or should I integrate them together. Thank you

[@GoranVinko]

HI. Perhaps you can focus on teaching others about your journey selling on Etsy. Or another option you might consider opening an Ecommerce site integrated with Etsy.? You'll have to find a way to market It will be interesting to hear what you come up with?

[@XavierOrtega2]

Hey! Nice video. I'm still on the fence about what to focus my personal website on. I have my "main career" in Healthcare (commercial area), I also have a small ecommerce, I also freelance (Excel sheets), and I also have lots of interests haha should I just pick one niche, or can I divide it into different "sections"?

[@PeterElbaum]

Hard to say - it depends on how you want to market yourself. Different sections might make sense to me

I am planning to create my personal website but i am very confused that what should i write in my website as i am working in real estate. Should i start a blogging website.

[@PeterElbaum]

You could choose - do you want it to be professionally focused, or more personal? Or you could do both

[@techiguy4188]

@@PeterElbaum I want to make it my personal brand. Personal focused website where i can connect to my clients and give them market information from time to time.

Good advise!

Appreciate it!

I have been thinking the same thing for years. Why is it not "normal" to have your own website? Every facebook, instagram, tiktok etc profile are the same but making your very own webpage, it will be unique. "Hello World" for real.

[@PeterElbaum]

Good point! :)

Those are good points and I do have my own website hosted on my NAS server. But I'm still trying to figure out what/which direction exactly I am heading at. I mean I could put up things about myself like intros, blogs, and my hobbies, amongst other things. But I need it to be something more substantial. By the way, while the idea of using CMS like Wordpress, Wix or Fourspace is the current trend to create websites I think I'd like to code my website from scratch. For one thing, it gives me the full control on what I put up on there. Not to mention, it gives the opportunity to learn more on new coding techniques since I was a former web developer; just that I had not done website in like ages. So this is a great chance for me to refresh my skills.

[@huyuc6614]

So after 1 year have you create your website?

[@mrpeterhacks]

I 💯 agree
