Creating a website
Have any of you tried creating a webpage from scratch? I never used to know how to code even a little bit, but I had the basic knowledge that all we see on the screen online is just a bunch of lines of code.
How awesome is that we have ai now and with that we don't need to know how, we just need to know what we want and being able to express the idea to ai, it guides you through every step of the way and I didn't even use a paid version.
Initially when I started, I rushed to get a website and just made it with one of the companies that offer ai building platforms, but it is of course subscription based, so because I wasn't really using most of their features, I didn't see the point of paying 20$ each month just to have a web page. Quite frankly I am not convinced that nowadays we even need a web page for a business, social media works pretty well, but anyway...
Just spend half of the day creating a simple landing page with the contact form, so I can get messages redirected straight to my work e-mail address. I owned domain for a while and I found a provider who hosts for free, so I don't need to pay dreamhost or any other company. That was a little complicated with all the dns routing and a bunch of other technical detail that chat GPT was walking me through, but I am happy to announce that it is very doable, just need a lot of patience...without patience it's definitely way easier to just make it on wix or squarespace . Oh , that was another thing. When I was purchasing domain originally, it was on google domains and since then squarespace took over all their stuff and I totally forgot all the credentials for accessing that domain, so I had to go through my bank statements to find a proof of purchase, that it was my domain 😬
But long story short, chat GPT can spit out a text file in 5 seconds, that is saved as .html and hosted in couple clicks. I feel like a geek now 😁 I just made a simple model that I will be working on, but it's functional and that's all it matters for today !
