    Hey Dan! Thank you for your feedback! I'll make those changes tonight after I'm back from work. Your right, this would just be a skeleton for me to expand the site on. If the client agrees that they want a more complex site down the road, then I will definitely add in a lot more. Sahil.

    Site is done! The client only wants a simple site to start of with since they are testing the business out. Feel free to roast my site, I appreciate any and all feedback as I improve in this space: lightslategray-snake-774748.hostingersite.com |

    Right I see! Haven't really looked into ads from cold traffic but clearly you've been getting much better results than me so that's worth a shot! Thank you very much for sharing, I'll definitely give ads a run and see how they go. Happy to also share what I put in my ads in the event that I'm...

    I see, that is amazing! What sort of ads are you currently running to acquire those clients? Currently looking into running ads myself to attract clients but don't have any ideas on how to begin haha. Thanks, Sahil.

    Hey man, I've used it for past clients and it's been generally quite successfully. It's a great way to capture all of the additional info needed for a website without needing them to jump into a second call (more time efficient for both then and myself). This is just an edge case where the...

    Hi all, Just returned back from an incredible trip and reigniting this thread again. At this point in time, I'm going to be meeting with my current client ($200 for a static site) to guide him through the Google form so I can begin building his website. Currently, my goals for the end of the...

    So since I'll be away in Japan for a week and a half, it's unlikely that I'll be able to close out the work this week. Had a chat with client today and he's happy for the work to be dispatched mid November once I am back. Still waiting on a response from the Google form. Once I have this...

    Ahh that's a shame! WordPress is the only software I'm super well versed in at the moment. I'm using Divi as well which means that at this stage, I'm still relying on WordPress to continue haha. I'll keep this in mind though for future reference - I'll need to do some more research on my end...

    Hmm yes I guess with any other hosting platform, you need to backup your work as there is always the risk of things going pear shaped. Have you hosted any websites on there personally? Also good news - the client has agreed to the $200 site with a $20/month hosting fee! Very excited to bring...

    Alright so he's come back asking if the costs include domain hosting. Since he intends for this business to be more of a tester business, I've offered to build the site for $200 and only charge for domain hosting after the first 3 months if the business makes it past that point. Initially, I...

    Thank you for your kind words mate, it's very reassuring to see someone who drives realistic viewpoints into building a business. One thing I hate seeing is people claiming unrealistic progress ie, that they made 6 figures within 6 months. If anything, this will likely takes years to take off...

    Had a consultation with the client on Tuesday (the referral) about a website he wants to have built for his wife's business. At this stage, he's looking to keep costs low and only wants a simple, static website. I've sent through a proposal for $200 to complete this and I'm currently waiting on...
