Project Griselda: Basic Thoughts.
I have been blogging for more than 10 years, and I have noticed at times how certain websites are structured. Some of these elements came to fruition as I examined the source of web pages. Never before have I actually thought about how simple making a basic website could be. That is until I recently have had interest in website design. After making some simple HTML files through self-teaching with W3schools, I found out it could be possible I could create my own websites if I really dedicated myself to creating quality material. So in an effort to try to master website design, I needed to put up another development project. And in so... welcome to "Project Griselda!"Project Griselda: What Does This Mean For You?
I can not guarantee I can come up with websites and designs of impeccable quality, but I can do my best in making enticing material I am sure people will pick up on and lovingly use. I also need to learn to develop sites that can be viewed properly on mobile devices. Various websites these days offer responsive websites. Responsive templates allow for sites to be viewed properly across computers and mobile devices alike. I will need to test out things more on my tablet PC and my smartphone.I could use a combination of programs for which to develop designs for websites. Most of what I have are free programs. I use GIMP as my basic photo editor. I use Inkscape for not only vector graphics but also certain intricate designs. There is Notepad++ I have used for developing HTML pages, but someone online directed me to a program called Bluefish Editor. I may therefore use a combination of Notepad++ and Bluefish Editor.
Project Griselda: What Does the Future Hold?
Here is where I may make some interesting announcements.I love my Weebly site, but I am having thoughts about making my own custom website. It is possible I may create my own website to link to my blogs as well as developing a proper site for which to sell my digital offerings. So I may use Project Griselda to develop my own website. I don't want to abandon or retire from Weebly just yet, but it is possible I COULD abandon my Weebly site and just operate from a custom website. After years using Blogger/Blogspot, I have thought a little bit about starting my first site (not blog) under Wordpress. On the hosting front, I have considered the popular option of BlueHost. Another popular option is HostGator (which I didn't know is headquartered here in Houston!).
--- A Special Note... ---
If I do create my own website and launch it, I will need your financial help to keep it active because I don't make much money through my online work. Having monthly hosting fees and such will drain my online funds. So I will have to ask you donate to me if you enjoy my work. Or, I may have some of those costs offset if I make proper sales of any creative works. That would mean I have to produce more digital content for sale to better be able to reap in financial benefits. How long I can make this ride work depends on my determination and your dedication. Let's work together to make magic happen!
Now you know about "Project Griselda" and what it entails! By the way... if you want to learn how to build your own websites (or even learn HTML for your blog), I recommend w3schools. You can learn more about HTML by visiting www.w3schools.com. This may sound like an advertisement, but I am not sponsored by them. I am just speaking on personal experience.
I have shared my mind, and you came along to gauge my thoughts. I am pleased for you to come here and check out my latest post. Thank you for reading! Take care and be well.
