Do You Feel Like a Damsel in Distress With No One Coming to Help?
I remember when I was first getting to know the online world and wanted to build my first website. Of course I didn’t have a clue what to ask for when speaking with web developers, I didn’t know if what I was being quoted was a fair price, and I surely didn’t know how to do it myself. It was as if I was a damsel in distress but no one cared! In fact, the ones who were wanting to take advantage of that ignorance almost smelled it and I could feel myself being preyed upon. It was a terrible feeling. As a woman I’ve felt this before when going to buy a car by myself, however, I at least understood enough about cars that I could negotiate or call someone I trusted for advice. I knew no one who built websites and the people I knew who had a website weren’t trying to sell anything or do things the way I wanted. This left me with one choice – GoDaddy. I built my first website on their template maker called Website Tonight and I hated it. I felt like an idiot, I didn’t like the site, and worst of all they put their logo at the bottom of it as if to say to the world, “Hey this idiot HAD to choose us!” Ugh, it was depressing. Knowing what I know now, I feel the need to empower people how to build their own websites or at least how to ‘speak geek’ so they can feel they have that knowledge to know what is going on and feel in control again of their online business.
