Some of what you'll learn:
Design a Website That Feels as Good as It Looks

A beautiful website means nothing if it confuses visitors or drives them away. We’ll show you how to implement core principles and follow the laws of consumer behavior to create a website that not only looks good, but feels good for users.
How to Build Stronger Core Pages That Convert
Your homepage, about page, and services page aren’t just placeholders—they’re the backbone of your website’s success. We’ll break down exactly what belongs on each page your site can have, what doesn’t, and how to structure them for clarity, trust, and conversion.
-------------
Structure Your Site for Maximum Engagement
-------------
Your website isn’t just a digital portfolio—it’s a strategic tool designed to guide visitors toward booking you. You’ll learn how to optimize your layout, create a seamless user experience, and keep potential clients engaged from the moment they land on your site.
The Fundamentals of Website Copywriting
-------------
Great design grabs attention, but compelling copy closes the deal. You’ll learn how to write clear, engaging, and conversion-driven content that speaks directly to your ideal clients—without sounding salesy or generic.
