Still not convinced?

I’ve been developing websites for over 20 years. I’ve tried SO many different platforms: WordPress, Drupal, Concrete, Yii, Sharepoint, Shopify way too many. I have also built very intricate custom solutions for myself, for my clients, and for my employers. I’ve used React, Angular, PHP, C#, Go, Python you get the idea. I haven’t tried everything, but I’ve tried a lot.

What I discovered along the way is that a lot of people overbuild and overpay on projects. I started looking for a way to get my clients what they wanted without committing to pricy monthly contracts and hefty development costs up front. I encouraged them to consider launching lean and building iteratively on top of that initial launch. In the midst of that pursuit, I found that many service providers like Netlify offer a very generous free service tier that can sustain most of my clients for months.

Imagine launching with almost no out of pocket costs up front. Then, as your site grows and evolves you can gradually increase your costs to match your revenue and your traffic. I did some simple math and found that for a one-page website like we’re building in this course, the Netlify free tier would allow my clients to serve thousands of visitors on the website each month. And recently, Netlify added their painless forms integration service into their free tier, allowing up to 100 submissions per month (at least, that’s the limit as I’m writing this). When you combine Netlify with Gitlab who now allows free private git repos so that you store your website’s code securely you can automate the tedious process of making changes to code, tracking who made them, and publishing them to your site.

Much of what I show you in this course is a blueprint for how I solve the same problems for my employer. That’s the real value of this course. The simple one-page website and lead collector won’t solve all your problems. It’s just a placeholder as you prepare to launch your next project. But, what I’m teaching you is my process for launching lightning fast static websites using tools that make it deceivingly simple for FREE! If you pay attention, you’ll be able to extrapolate from this course a reproducible methodology for launching more complex websites.

Need some urgency?

Every minute that you spend wasting time thinking about what you could do with your website, your customers are slipping through your fingers. While you’re busy thinking, put your website to work capturing leads for you. I’ve done all the work to curate the perfect template and a combination of services that let you launch your landing page with little to no cost.
