S.B.
Making my website was quite the learning process for me. The first website I tried to make for my business, I had to completely take down. The program I was attempting to use didn't work at all with firefox and it shifted things around when I posted it. It was very frustrating, because I wasted all this time on something that didn't work. So I learned from that to check your work as you go, not to post it all at once. I use dreamweaver now, which I had to learn, but it works great for me.
Something that was very helpful for me was getting my friends and family to critique my site after I finished it and put it up. I emailed everyone I could think of and asked them to peruse it. I even asked a few of my regular clients to look at it for me. I asked for honest feelings about things I needed to change and for someone to double check my spelling. :) It was the best thing I could have done. There were things I didn't even think about, like that colors look differently on other computers, so some font colors I chose looked great on my computer, but were hard for friends to see on theirs. GL!
