Website Essentials | Monday, May 4

Your website isn’t just a digital brochure — it’s your home base online.

In this practical, beginner-friendly session, we’ll break down what makes a website functional, effective, and built to support your goals. This is not a technical coding class, and it’s not for professional web designers. It’s for small business owners, side hustlers, and entrepreneurs who want to make sure their website is doing more than just “existing.”
