Hey, have you heard the news?
I have a new website! It's called Cash and Joy and its mission is to increase the awesomeness of the world - of course - through glorious and meaningful marketing.

Why did I focus on marketing? Because marketing can be the most fun and meaningful activity of your business instead of the most dreaded and icky... if you do it right.

How WebSites Work, Part 3: HTML, CSS and frameworks

By

Now you know about servers and IP addresses and domain names, it’s time to talk about the building blocks of websites: HTML, CSS and more advanced dynamic website tools like WordPress.

The Infamous Whiteboard is back, but I took the filming inside (away from the car noises and cicadas), so it’s much more readable.

Did that help? Please leave comments below to let us know!

    Definitely helpful! Did make me wonder about cost (for WordPress), but that's very easy to find out. Also made me wonder about the degree of customizability (is that a word?) WordPress allows for, but then I remembered your earlier post about how our first site won't (and needn't) be perfect, so we just make it cheap and easy, and then I thought – it's probably customizable enough!

    WordPress itself is completely free. You will have to pay for some webhosting, which is about $100/year.

    It's completely customisable! You can change the look with themes, or add more functionality with plugins… there's almost nithing you can't do.
