happy holidays happy whatever you celebrate get cozy sit by the fire have a drink be sure to tell the ones you love that you love them too that is not the reason that we are here the folks from Wix reached out see if I could help teach people how to build a website in fact when I went to build TechnoBuffalo com I knew so little about having to build a website we burn through 80% of our startup capital based only on my ignorance the company almost didn't launch because I didn't know how to build a website I have a whole video detailing TechnoBuffalo story and the mistakes that I made building a website willing to it up here and down below if you want to watch the moral is it's now almost 2017 it is like a bajillion times easier to build a website and using the tools to folks at Wix offer it is dead simple in fact I went in and even built my own website in about 25 minutes just showing a gallery of pictures and a blog that I made showing some the stuff for my new car the Model X which we did a video on to you can take a look at that but I wasn't just gonna make a video showing you how to make a website which I promise that I will I thought it would be kind of cooler to not only show you that but also to give you a chance to win your freaking dream phone whatever phone you have dreamt that exists at least that's like out you can win it you could pick an iPhone a pixel whatever you want and whatever color you want and whatever storage size you want and again we tuned up the folks from Wix who sponsor this video we're going to give you a chance to and we'll put all the details right here on the screen the dates if you want to enter though make sure you hit the link down below and go to the article on Tecton buffalo calm that's where the widget to enter is going to be so when your dream phone did good I don't know you should win something fun because you are a good person now if you're continuing watching you want to know how to build a website so first thing to do is grab your computer the mediocre battery life in this case we'll just grab this one all right so let's get started showing you how to build a website and I'm gonna do that by showing you the website that I built and this again took me about 15 to 20 minutes this is the first website that I had built using the tools from Wix and it was super simple I could probably cut about 10 minutes out of that next time so I created a blog style with galleries and pictures but you can create a ton of different sites and I'll show you what all those options are so real quick meet the Model X it automatically pulled in all my social stuff that I inputted when I set up the site in the upper right hand corner with the links I compact and everything I was able to put in my own background gallery the cool kind of parallax effect I said I'll learn more button will take you to TechnoBuffalo calm people want to contact me and I should say also this site is live if you want to watch it and take a look at yourself I'll link to it down below so you can see it I did a little story about my delivery of the car and this is our video that I talked about it apply actually in line with a blog and I wrote a post it also automatically integrate comments built into the website you can add things tool you can do emails you can add analytic tools you can put in ads it is a full-featured website it's not like website Lite or only a partially functional website it is like a legit full website does everything for websites can do you can take bookings if that's something you want to do you could sell stuff and again it's like literally a click of a button so I put in a gallery here and it's just as simple as hitting an upload button you can see it's a beautiful like full screen gallery title show up at the bottom it's very like elegant away things were set up and what's made it really simple so the site that I built here is a fraction of what you can actually do and the stuff you can build let me jump it to the editor fast chase and the cool stuff that I could have done and what the editor looks like soon you build your site you know the power of the tools so you can see each page is here and as you scroll through each page you get an edit button once you let you edit the content on it pull up a little list on the side the title the subtitle any text you want if you want to switch your image or go to a gallery you've uploaded or even do a video which is kind of cool to see it sort of gradually will move in the background and also if you want to put a link in is really Andy but beyond that if you want to move the pages around you have that option as well three little dots show up on the right for more actions and if you keep scrolling down you can see what each one does go to move and I can actually move it anywhere I want which is a kind of a cool option to be able to have so I can select a page in the list and just go ahead and drop it down but the easiest way to edit is to go through this playlist actually and just go through step by step so you can preview your site entire website design change website colors and go all the way down until your site is built so a jump into one of these here let's change website colors let's see I don't really like the blue and the white that I've got here so you can either do it for me or show me how so let's say something do it for makes life a lot easier so they're going to open up the design panel and this is all happening I'm not touching anything here this is all doing it on its own and it's gonna take the pictures that I've gone and it's gonna match a theme right to it so let's try another way I'm not the PGA's kind of guy but you can see how easy it is to do all right that I like that looks really slick so let's keep that and then go through and you could change the section layout contents and add new sections but I'm going to close this I kind of like the way this looks think it looks really clean so I've got a blog here as well and a blog might be something you guys want to have whether it's about your technology or your life or the food that you eat which made it really easy to to manage a blog and not just sort of the whole website hit the button says quite simply manage blog this I got to take you to your CMS or content management system again they made it dead simple so I can see all my posts here I could arrange them I've got different categories are going to be viewed here I want to go ahead and add tags that get added here as well let's go look at the first post this is my delivery experience I can see what this looks like so if you want to share it if you want to duplicate it delete it and you want to see what's going to look like let's edit this we're gonna be able to go ahead and actually get into the editor edit your posts you can add tags the advanced SEO is really helpful too it's going to sort of show you what its gonna look like on Google as you can see okay my delivery is the title of the post or the blog and the name of the site is test one the excerpt that Google is going to crawl the Meta Description all the stuff that you would need to make sure people can find you Wix put those tools directly in front of you and sort of makes it really simple so if you don't know anything about SEO those tools are here for you I think a lot of you are probably going to be looking for that blog functionality so again super simple to go ahead and edit your pages let's say I want to change this background I really like the black and white theme it suggested for me but I'm not too sure I like that picture so I'll go ahead and hit edit again here's all of my content I could view the gallery that I went in and uploaded and also which is going to give me a ton of choices as well enjoy a hit gallery I can organize my media it's going to be there no files I've uploaded but I want to try a video background there now I don't have a video uploaded I go and replace it with a ton of different choices I want to try something kind of serene and I've got a picture of the car previously said I might not be necessary but I think that maybe a city and urban view will be kind of cool that's where the car is going to be driven I'm gonna go ahead hit apply there I think that looks pretty good to me let me go ahead and preview that preview button lives right in the upper right hand corner now let's see as I scroll down there's that video I just did now it looks like I've been coded for years that video just seamlessly plays then as you scroll it disappears you can see how simple it is to go through and edit the site which can do things like email addresses if you already have a domain you can link it with your domain so you don't see any of the brought to you by Wix or if you want to use a Wix URL you can do that as well you can add ads again you could add analytics you could add traffic boosting options you can add SEO packs you can do everything you can do a very complex website with no coding skills required at all it's really simple really elegant easy to use the pricing is super affordable I did the totally unlimited sites for any was like two hundred and thirty-nine bucks see here aside from being limited there's a ton of other pricing options as well and there should be a tier for whatever you need and I think it's absolutely worth it if I had something like this and I created TechnoBuffalo my life would have been a lot simpler a lot easier so even thinking about doing a website creating website for anything now really good time to do it again all links be down below if you want to learn more we want to create your own website and learn more about Wix and also again if you want to enter it when your ultimate
