123: What Your Online Course WEBSITE Should Look Like

Listen Later
Websites: if you don’t have one already, you probably are thinking about creating one. Having your own website is an important part of building your web presence, but not every course creator approaches this the same way. My website has evolved a lot over time, in part thanks to Greg Merrilees and his team at Studio1Design. That’s why I had Greg on the show today. We’re talking all things related to online course websites!

"Look at your data to figure what’s working… and be prepared for it to change."
