SUMMARY:Poetry Online: Build Your First Blog or Website
DESCRIPTION:In one hour\, watch a real poetry website get built from scratch — and leave knowing exactly how to launch your own. No tech skills required. \n📅 July 18th · 🕒 11 a.m. EST · 💻 Live online (Zoom) \nClick Here to Register \nFree to attend. Can’t make it live? Everyone who registers gets the recording. \n\nWhy You’re Here\nEver feel like your poems disappear the moment you post them? A like\, a scroll\, and they’re gone. \nSocial media rents you an audience. A website gives you something you actually own — a permanent home for your work\, a portfolio you control\, a place readers can always find you. The problem isn’t your words. It’s that “build a website” sounds like a job for someone else\, someone techier. \nIt isn’t. In this free hour\, we’ll prove it — together. \n\nWhat You’ll Walk Away With\nBy the end of this session\, you’ll have: \n\nA clear\, jargon-free picture of how a poetry website actually comes together\nThe four simple pages every poet’s site needs — and what belongs on each\nYour site name decided\, plus easy tips for picking a domain\nThe confidence to publish your first poem (you’ll watch one go live\, start to finish)\nA realistic plan to keep posting without burning out\nThe full recording\, plus your exact next three steps\n\n\nWho This Is For\nThis training was made for poets who: \n\nHave been meaning to start a website “someday”\nFeel a little behind on tech — and don’t want to feel silly asking\nAre tired of watching their work vanish in a social feed\nWant a calm\, step-by-step start instead of a pile of confusing tutorials\n\nNo coding\, no design background\, and no existing website required. If you can write a poem\, you can do this. \n\nWhat We’ll Cover\nIn one focused hour: \n\nWhy a website beats social media for poets — visibility\, credibility\, and ownership\nWhat a great (and refreshingly simple) poetry site looks like\nChoosing your name and claiming your space online\nA live build: going from a blank screen to a real\, working site\nThe moment that matters most: publishing your very first poem\, live\nKeeping it going — a posting rhythm you can actually sustain\n\n\nQuestions\, Answered\nDo I have to attend live? No. Register and we’ll send you the full recording\, so you can watch (and re-watch) whenever it suits you. \nHow much does it cost? Free. \nDo I need a website already? Not at all. You’ll see one built from scratch — bring zero\, leave with a plan. \nWhat do I need to bring? Just curiosity and somewhere to jot notes. No software to install beforehand. \nWill my site be finished by the end? You’ll leave knowing exactly how to build it and with your name decided. The hands-on\, build-your-own work lives in our full self-paced course\, Poetry Online: Build Your First Blog or Website — this live hour is the confident first step. \n\nYour voice deserves a stage. Let’s build it.\nSpend one hour with us\, and your poetry website stops being “someday” and starts being a plan. \nSave My Spot →  Free · Live online on 7/18 @ 11 a.m. – EST · Recording sent to all who register
