You’ve been duped. The experts all say:
“Content is king!”
But they’re wrong.
If you put all your focus on content, then you’re losing visitors hand over fist.
Here’s why…
Before a visitor reads one word on your site, they’ve already judged you.
In less than five seconds they decide whether or not to hit the back button…
…based on one simple factor.
Can you guess what it is?
Site design.
Poor design is the #1 thing that triggers mistrust.
Sadly, most site designs just don’t cut mustard.
But it doesn’t need to be that way!
You can start a beautiful site in under five minutes.
We show you how in the video tutorial above.
If you know how to check your e-mail (which clearly you do ;)…
…then you have enough tech skill to make it happen.
There’s even a downloadable PDF checklist here.
P.S. Speaking of design, you won’t believe the new video intro we got made for $5 on Fiverr.com.

Very nice Video guys… you guys really went over the basics real well for the newbies. Another good site is http://themeforest.net/ they have a lot of professionally designed wordpress templates as well. And your right content is queen inbound links and pretty important too but your right professionally design pages is important as well.

Hi guys
I couldn’t agree more but I think that good content + good site design + speed of page load are the three things which all matter equally.
I think that newbies should spend a little time sketching out what they want from their site before they jump into a particular theme or design.

Great little video for anyone getting started!! I think there is big debate around content and design, i think both need to be great really for any kind of success, but it’s great content that gets the shares and tweets not design! But to actually attract a first time visitor is very important as well!!

Very true. Really the two work together.

OK, I’ll agree that you’ve got to look decent to get over the first bar. But what next? There are a billion websites out there that look good, nost of which are getting little if any traction.
