Webpage Template Instructions
Webpage Template Instructions Ready to create a jaw-dropping business webpage online and share it with the world? To make the process of preparing your content and copy for your website as simple and painless as possible, I’ve created two different templates for you to choose from (or you can use these templates as inspiration and draw from the layout of a favorite website you love). Once you select your favorite, you can drop your copy into it. Your webmaster will ADORE you for this! And if you are creating your own webpage, then this will help you get organized big time! Each of the pages that inspired these templates is a stellar example of a successful business webpage and has the correct layout for all the info you will need for your own offerings. You can of course customize your webpage to perfectly fit your unique needs, so feel free to add or delete sections if you’d like! I do suggest that before you create or uplevel your own website, look at some websites for inspiration and see what you like and don’t like about each. Here are some of stellar examples (besides www.wanderlustentrepreneur.com): https://shiningacademy.com/ http://melissapharr.com/ http://www.vanessahorn.com/ http://talkingshrimp.com/ http://www.nikkielledgebrown.com/ http://kriscarr.com/ https://www.gracelever.com/ http://www.jensincero.com/ http://nomadcapitalist.com/

Please insert your copy in each section, using as juicy, descriptive text as you can. Most likely you’ll need headshots to create a stunning branded header. See Successful Photo Shoot Suggestions on how to best arrange that. You’ll also need beautiful, professional royalty-free photos that you own the rights to for each place that a photo is requested.
