I Spent 2 Hours and Ten Minutes Building a Free Godaddy Website
It has a blog, photo galleries, subscriber email signup and more.
If you follow my work here on Medium, you’ll know I love to try new things that have the potential to help writers and report back on how it went. My latest adventure was building a free website on Godaddy. First things first, there are no affiliate links in this story. Godaddy has an affiliate program through CJ.com, but I haven’t signed up for that yet. Let’s dive into the basics.
Note: I already had some surplus unpublished content written and edited, which made it easier to get the blog started.
Why should you build a website?
As I’ve said before, success as almost any kind of writer is often pinned to your visibility. Here’s my list of writers who cannot afford to hide in the shadows of obscurity:
- Freelancers
- Content creators
- Non-fiction book authors
- Novelists
- Bloggers
- Ghost writers
- Journalists
- Poets
- Self-publishers
