Listen "Web Design Step 2: Bringing Your Ideas to Life | Website Development Tutorial"
Episode Synopsis
Welcome back to the next step of my website design process! In the previous episode (if you missed it, catch up here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLd-Q6qZNFcQ8zDLRFbI6j-dwljQN0lcgE), we discussed the initial stage of website development. Now, in this episode, we're diving into step two.
In this phase, I'll guide you through the process of translating your ideas and text from your outline into an actual website. We're not focusing on visual flair just yet; instead, we'll familiarize ourselves with the website backend. Even if you're using templates, you might encounter issues like color discrepancies or spacing challenges. That's perfectly fine – the goal is to see how your content fits within the site structure.
As you work through this step, don't forget to leave bold, ALL CAPS (and even italicized and underlined) notes to yourself or your developer within the web pages. These notes will help you identify what needs adjustment as you progress.
Whether you're using Wix, Squarespace, or WordPress (like I do), this process is applicable. By the way, I host my site with WP Engine, a WordPress-focused hosting service. While this is not a paid endorsement, I appreciate their expertise in WordPress hosting.
By default, WP Engine uses the popular theme called Genesis Blocks. You can find more information about it in these links:

- Video 2: https://youtu.be/4kEBbur8ct0?si=jnK5jsxwF6nmU_pz
Stay tuned for future episodes where we'll clean up our site and work on the visual flair. For exclusive behind-the-scenes access to my website development journey, consider joining my Patreon page at http://patreon.com/philsvitek. Your support means the world to me!
