How to Build Your Own Website in less than 90 Minutes!
Thank you GoDaddy for sponsoring this post. Get started on building your own website with GoCentral today!
A few weeks ago my daughter was talking to my husband and I about wanting to start a t-shirt company. She wants to offer cool clothes for girls who like to skate – think ROXY for skateboarders. She wants to start off with t-shirts, hoodies, and even wants to get into selling skateboards. She absolutely loves skateboarding and would love to see girls to take over the skate parks. Her words. She is all about the side-hustle and we try to encourage her to branch out and learn about the ins and outs for starting a business and hopefully make some extra money on the side. You never know! During the Spinner gadget craze, she asked for a loan so she could buy some online at $2.50 a piece. She turned around and sold them at school for $10. She ended up earning enough cash to buy her own pair of Jordans in a hip Santa Monica shoe store. Like I said, the kid is all about the hustle!
She came up with the company name KEZZ as in Kate skatezzz… and worked on the logo herself. She drew the logo on an app on her iPad. Next step was to create a website and GoCentral has everything we need to take her side hustle online and to help her find an audience. I love that she is creating a business out of something she loves. GoCentral contains all the components that make a great website for this project, and will connect her with people that will be interested in it.
From built-in email marketing and SEO tools; to the ability to launch a Facebook page with the info from the site; to pre-populated, tailored, professional imagery from Getty images, GoCentral has everything you need to start sharing KEZZ side hustle with the world. The website can be updated and viewed on mobile, making it easy to update the website while on-the-go.
And for you worried about creating a website, let me just say it is SO easy to create one on GoCentral! You can create one in less than 90 minutes or less depending on how much you want to put onto your site. When you get started, GoDaddy asks you what type of company, hobby or activity you are wanting to showcase and it then pulls hundreds of stock photo’s you can use. I typed in t-shirt company and it provided me not only with images to use but also a description of our company in the About Us section. We changed it up a bit to fit what KEZZ is all about, but overall they make it so easy for non-techie folks (like myself) to figure out. You can see on the right side of the photo above how it allows you to add in a logo if you have one and change the cover photo either using the stock photo’s they provide or uploading one from your files.
You can also change the font, header colors and the layout.
Not sure how it will look on a smartphone? It allows you to see a preview before you publish the site.
GoCentral makes it easy to turn a hobby into a profitable side hustle:
More and more parents are turning a hobby or passion into a side hustle, and an easy-to-use website makes it possible. So many moms and dads have a pastime or passion, but don’t feel like they have the time or energy to share that hobby or expertise with the world. But with GoCentral, it’s simple to create a place for your idea to live online – without any technical background or without spending a lot of time. By making it easy to build a website for your hobby or passion, GoCentral makes it easy to turn that hobby or passion into a profitable side hustle.
We are really excited about this new venture of hers! I really appreciate that GoDaddy offers GoCentral so that we can create a website to showcase a side business. If you have been on the fence about a business idea, it is time! GoCentral makes it super easy to make your dream a reality. Good Luck on your new adventure. I will post when Kate has the business up and running and you can check out her first t-shirt collection.
