Tools/Services Mentioned
Domain Name Registrar: Namecheap
I prefer Namecheap – Godaddy is also widely used, but you can get better coupons with Namecheap. And I’ve seen quite a few people complain about Godaddy’s renewal process.
For what it’s worth – even though you can get a domain name through most of the site building platforms I mentioned, I don’t recommend doing so. For one thing, you will pay more. Second, if you ever LEAVE that platform, sometimes there’s a problem getting your domain back.
Hosted Site Builder I Recommend: Strikingly
What I like about this site builder is that it’s very easy to use, you can create free websites temporarily if you need one (however, you can’t connect a custom domain name to a free site), PLUS their live Chat support is amazingly fast and friendly.
Google Business Profile:
This is a good article (I didn’t write) on setting one up:

My Services
AMA Consulting:
Ask Me Anything – we’ll meet (in person or Google Meet, whatever works) – and you can ask me anything you want about websites, online marketing, anything related to doing business online. I typically charge $199 for up to 2 hours – I will discount that to $100 for you. And if you don’t think you got $100 worth of value from our conversation, I’ll refund your money!
Brochure Sites Web Design Service:
I used Strikingly for my new BrochureSites.com service. I can put up a simple website for you, starting at just $399. If you don’t have the time or budget for a big expensive site just yet, this could be a great way to get going!
- Here are some other demo sites I built with Strikingly. I used the first one, the video traffic boost one, for several years to sell a particular service I offered at the time. I no longer own the domain name, but I kept the site build:

- https://SyretaTalks.com – I built the site for Syreta, then we moved it to her own Strikingly account and she is making updates now
