THE TOOLS YOU NEED TO SUCCEED ONLINE

Starting and running a new website is challenging. It isn’t brain surgery, but it also isn’t simple.

It has taken me a couple years to get the process down to something of a science, and I’m still learning every day. However, I’ve done a good deal of legwork over the years in this area so that you don’t have to reinvent the wheel.

This is just a sample of the actionable advice I share with my followers on a regular basis, but before you start exploring, I’d like to invite you to subscribe to my newsletter where I share tips/tricks that aren’t featured on my blog or podcast. In return, you’ll get instant access to my guide on how to come up with an idea for a lifestyle business, perfect for those of you who are struggling at the concept stage.

HOST GATOR

#1 FOR WEBSITE HOSTING

I’ve been with these guys for years. What I love about their service is the 24/7 support.

When I was a total noob and didn’t know the first thing about hosting a site, installing WordPress, backing up my files, or what a 404 error was, these guys helped me out. The secret is to be patient, polite and specific with your requests.

I’ve yet to have someone at HostGator tell me, ‘Sir, that’s beyond our scope.’ Seriously, these guys are fantastic.

GODADDY

#1 FOR DOMAIN NAMES

I have used other domain name services, but GoDaddy is my favorite because it is easy to setup and use. One reason why I prefer them over other domain registrars is because it is like a thousand times easier to get up and running.

I’m all about speed, efficiency and ease-of-use, so I give these guys a thumbs-up.
