Want To Learn How To Set Up Your First Website On Saturday?
November 21st, 2007 · Filed Under: Bob The Teacher Training · Business Building · Discover cPanel · Teleseminars · cPanel
Last weekend, I held a live webinar with 30+ people, helping them set up their first website. Although it was well attended, and I received excellent feedback overall, I learned a few things…
Walking a person through as an example worked really well
Giving people time between steps was essential
Getting the email from the hosting company took longer than expected
3 hours is an awful long time for a webinar
Charging for the webinar only after it was over, AND if I “deserve” it was an interesting experiment worth repeating.
So this week it’s Thanksgiving, and I’m considering holding another webinar this Saturday. Of course, I’ll be making some changes.
But before I go through the trouble of setting that up, I need to see if you will be up for attending it.
So if you missed out on the last one, or need a refresher, let me know now by posting a comment below.
And in case you aren’t sure what this is about… during the webinar, you will watch, learn, and then DO the following:
During the first hour:
1) Register your domain name, and do so strategically for your business
2) Setup hosting (followed by a long break - like 2 hours), picking the right hosting plan at the right host, etc.
During the second hour:
3) Connect your new domain name to your hosting account
4) Tour your website’s cPanel
5) Add some basic content to your webpage
If this is of interest to you, tell me below. Specifically, let me know if this Saturday works for you, say Noon Eastern for the first hour, then 3 p.m. EST for the second hour.
When I can see we will have a nice size group, I’ll schedule the call and let you know the details via email.

p.s. I know this weekend may be busy (all that shopping and all), but perhaps the downtime of a 4 day vacation is the perfect time to build your first website? Tell me you’ll be there below.

Sorry, Bob, I can’t make it on the weekends. I have to work. Night time works best for me. 9 PM EST is the best night time start. I am very interested in your webinars and hate to miss them. I did make your last one and loved it.

Yes, Bob, so far Saturday works for me, too. I’ve missed both the last class and last night’s webinar, and I really need the refresher to catch up as I had to meet a tight deadline (the total job’s not finished yet and the client’s demanding more of my time).
As for putting up the “basic” copy and actually letting the site go live, to stand out the copy needs to be *brilliant*, so let’s see how many of us can do that in one webinar. (My initial copy’s not all written yet. I’m not yet an expert …)

Saturday sounds great — would love to do it.

Yes Bob that sounds good for me.

hello
i would be interested in your offer to set my first website. will you doing a webinair not just an audio. also, will you show what to do with a landing page etc.
another issue missing after one sets up a website is how do you analyze traffic, where do you submit the website to get traffic and how do you put on auto responders with response letters etc.
i.e now once one gets a website then what are the nnext steps. how do you get your host where you upload the website to best serve one.
there are so many tools but how do you use them i.e. on the host where one uploads the website.
i hope this is clear - you may not be able to cover everything in one session but these are the kinds of things i would like to know and i am sure others who are newbies would like to know.
thank you

Yes, Bob, I will try my best to attend. Regret missing the last one.
November 22nd, 2007 at 9:38 pm
Yes. I do need to see the last part again, to get this web site up. Thanks

Thanks for the feedback.
We will have our next webinar on Saturday, November 24. Instead of one part, though, I’ll be doing it in two parts.
Part one starts at 12 EST in the afternoon. This will cover registering a domain (and choosing the right options), and setting up hosting (and picking the right plan).
Then we’ll take a break until 3 EST, which will give everyone time for lunch, as well as enough time for us to get the emails back from the hosting company. During Part Two, I’ll show you how to connect your domain and your hosting, and how to add basic content.
Vero - I will not be teaching you web design during this session. That’s a lot more intensive training.
However, Martin Salter and I are in the late planning stages for a series of trainings along what you are talking about. I’ll keep you posted on that.
To get to this weekend’s webinar, make sure you sign up at http://www.FirstWebsiteTutorial.com. If you already registered, you have an email from me already.
Once again, you will not pay for this training unless you feel I have earned it. And you will decide how much.
See you on Saturday.
Bob Jenkins
p.s. This training is not designed as a refresher, but an exact step by step repeat of the first training. It is expected that you are starting from scratch!
