Different starting points. Real websites, live.

Before website.sorted opened to anyone, a small group of business owners tested it. They started in very different places with tech, and they all finished with a site they own. Here’s how it went, in their words.

Sandy giving a reflexology treatment

Sandy

Reflexologist · Sole Alchemy Wellness

thought she couldn’t build a website, and proved herself wrong!

“What surprised me is that I could actually do it myself. I’m still surprised. I can’t believe I did it.”

“You’re supported every step of the way. It’s not technical, it’s not overwhelming, it’s broken into manageable steps. In 10 days you get a live website, and it’s yours. You can change it whenever you want.”

How would you describe your tech skills before you started?
“Minimal. About as good as keeping plants alive. I didn’t even know what it meant to have a domain, or what it meant to publish a website. My biggest worry was that if I made a mistake, I wouldn’t be able to fix it.”
If you hadn’t found website.sorted, what was your plan?
“I never, in my wildest dreams, thought I would have a website. At a networking lunch everyone was saying theirs cost five or ten grand, and I thought, that’s it, I’ll never have one. People will just have to follow me on Facebook and Instagram.”
The most technical day, how did that feel?
“A bit overwhelming. I printed it out and highlighted it. But once it clicked, it wasn’t actually that big. It’s like standing at the bottom of a mountain thinking you’ll never get to the top, and then you get there and it wasn’t even that high.”

finished the lessons and then kept on building using those new skills!

“Honestly, I became obsessed. By day three I was fitting it in faster than I was fitting in lunch.”

“It would have taken me at least two years to get a website. It was the cost, but it was also the confidence. I didn’t know if my business was ready.”

How would you describe your tech skills before you started?
“Maybe 50-50. I grew up around computers, but with AI and all these new things I was a bit taken aback. Now I feel like I’m back in the game. I know how to deploy. I know what DNS is.”
Why does this matter for women starting out in business?
“A lot of people, when they first start a business, don’t have the disposable income for a website. And it gives you the motivation to keep going, because it’s easy to drop off when your income is all over the place. Having a website builds that motivation back. Now when I see mine, I’m like, oh, I can’t believe I did this.”
What would you say to someone considering it?
“It’s one of the best things you could do for your business. Everything is there, to the detail. There’s no second guessing. Even if you didn’t have technical skills, you would understand it.”
