Your website should not do anything more than this
- Spencer Fry
Having a good website is easy if you don’t fill it with a bunch of bloat.
First, do the research:
Figure out who your target audience is
Find out what they care about
Find out what their goals are
Find out what their pain points are
Find out what problems they have around buying and what’s stopping them
Find out what’s going to make them buy
Second, design and write the copy:
Tell the fucking facts
Give the information clearly
Write to your target audience and nobody else
Describe your audience’s pain points
Write copy to their goals
Tell them what is unique about your product
Tell them what you do differently
Add some personality
Congrats! You have a good website.

This section once listed the startups I’d founded and other accomplishments, but that stuff doesn’t mean much to me anymore (maybe I’m just old?). These days I’m just focused on making Podia better every day and spending time with my wife, dog, and the people who matter.
