Then it’s time to be the captain of your website ship.
Attendees need to bring their laptops to this workshop.
What will be covered:
Understanding what a domain is and why it’s important to have one.
If any attendees would like to have a domain set-up prior to the workshop they can contact me directly (anthea@appcity.co.za) to register it for them and this will cost an additional R150 for domain registration… as well as cost R150 per year to keep their domain.
I will have a few “Dummy Domains” that the attendees will be able to use to create their own websites during the workshop.

What is the purpose of your website?
To generate business.
What design elements do you need to achieve the desired outcome of your website?
Design stage:
How to login to the website

Bonus:
AppCity will offer workshop attendees a 33% discount on their first year of website hosting should they wish to host their website through AppCity (they are also welcome to use a hosting provider of their choice and will be provided a copy of the design they do in the workshop to submit to their chosen hosting company.
