How many people have a personal website?

According to Forbes, 7 % of the general population (or 15 % of millennials) have a personal website.

I’d have guessed more people would have a personal website as it never has been easier to create your website as it is today.

Some website builders are as easy to use as standard office software (or even easier), WordPress hosting services, and solutions completely for free such as GitHub pages.

Why do so few people have their websites then?

I don’t know, but in this article, I’ll give you five Reasons why you should consider creating a personal website.

Why №1: Put yourself out there

This is the simplest why: with a personal website you can put yourself out there. This can have different reasons itself, like:

  • Find a new job
  • Build your brand
  • Show off your work

With your personal website, you can show the world who you are and why the world should know about you!

But you could also do this on social media, right? This is where Why №2 comes in.
