Everything you need to feel prepared before you start building.
Taking a little time to get ready for the 60-minute Website Challenge means you can focus on building your website instead of searching for information along the way. You don’t need to have everything ready, but having a few essentials nearby will help you build with confidence.
A Few Tips Before You Start
1. Keep It Simple
Your goal isn’t to build a flawless, complete masterwork in an hour. Focus entirely on creating a simple website that introduces your business, explains what you offer, and helps visitors understand who you are. Remember: you can continue improving your website at any time after it has been published.
2. Choose Your Most Important Pages
Get ready for the 60-Minute Website Challenge; a simple website with up to five standard pages is all you need. We highly recommend mapping out:
- Home
- About
- Services
- Gallery
- Contact
Starting with just these core essentials helps you make the most of your 60 minutes.
3. Have Your Content Ready
Gathering your content assets as you get ready for the 60-Minute Website Challenge will save you valuable time. Try to have these items in a single folder on your computer:
- Logo
- Business Description
- Contact Information
- Opening Hours
- Images
4. Don’t Worry About Perfection
Every great website on the internet started with a first version. Getting online is your very first milestone. Once your website is live, you can freely update text, replace placeholder images, or add new pages whenever inspiration strikes.
What Happens Next?
Once you have your assets organised and feel comfortable with the plan, log in to your dashboard, open up the 1-grid Website Builder, and start your 60-Minute Website Challenge! Your immediate goal is simply to hit publish within the challenge timeframe. Everything else can be polished and refined later.
