Even before I launched my business out into the world in 2016 I spent countless hours trying out different web platforms to see what would work best for me. While the time I put into researching platforms and trying them out was useful, it took up A LOT of time and if I could go back I would do things differently so I could save myself from the confusion and headaches.

I was on a lot of different web platforms before I got to Squarespace. I tried Wordpress, Wix, I've worked on Showit... it's a big world out there. Lots of choices when it comes to choosing you online home. It's a big decision. And a difficult one. But today I would love to share my experience with my favorite web platform to date: Squarespace.

Whenever I'm in certain Facebook groups, I can count on hearing the people asking questions about which platform is best for their business. These comments can be, "which platform is the best for starting out?" or "Should I start with Wordpress?" and the classic, "How do I know which platform is best for me?"

When you first step into the world of online business it can be overwhelming, to say the least. There is so much you “need” to do, or “should” do when you have an online business.

I want to encourage you, if you are just starting out, congrats to getting this far –but don’t get distracted with all the “shoulds” cause trust me, there’s a lot.
