Your Website Buddy TM
12 month subscription to turn your website into an effective marketing tool
Did you set up your website and call it done - only to realize it's not quite fulfilling its purpose as your most reliable marketing tool?
Your Website Buddy™ is a 12 month subscription - a full-year plan to support you in refreshing and updating your website. It includes monthly emails with bite-sized steps to take for the month + printables to keep you on task.
The cost? $97/year.
Psst... the cost is going up soon, so if this is for you, now's the time!
AND there's a special offer going on from April 18-May 2, 2024 - click here to see more info!
I built this subscription as a way to help DIYers keep up with their own websites and not get overwhelmed with all the things that need to be done to keep a website tuned up and working well.
After six years of helping people build their websites, I want to help them USE those websites to their full potential!
Your Website Buddy™ Features:
*I’ll pop into your inbox each month with a list of bite-sized steps to take for the month and a handy printable pdf.
*Occasionally, I’ll send additional emails for time-sensitive things. Those will be on an as-needed basis.
*Finally, I'll send a Monthly Accountability Check-in email and form you can fill out to schedule your website update time with yourself. There may be prizes!
Areas covered:
- taking a baseline backup of your site
- reviewing your home, about, services, and contact pages
- evaluating your navigation
- checking your links
- updating your calls to action
- reviewing your social proof
Your Website Buddy™ is $97/year for the monthly (and extra) emails, printables, and accountability check-ins!
Your subscription renews yearly.
Who it's for: people who maintain their own websites to keep it up to date and working for their business.
Who it's NOT for:
- People who hire someone else to maintain their site (although you could purchase these reminders for a VA to work on your website for you if you like)
- People who are in the process of building their website - it's not designed to help you build your site because it takes a year to get through all the reminders. Check out the free Website Audit tips instead for resources you can access immediately.
14 Day money-back guarantee: cancel within 14 days and get a full refund!
Accountability
There's an accountability check in survey for you to let me know how you're doing. You can use them to hold yourself accountable to getting your tasks done each month!
The surveys will be coming out soon and are included as part of your original fee, no extra charge.
Occasionally, I'll offer prizes for people who use the accountability check-in forms - and the information will be in your YWB Support Google Doc!
Current prizes for April-May 2024 - see the document!

How does this work with Your Website Buddy™?
A website audit allows you to see specific things on your website that may need your attention. Then when you get your email reminders as a subscriber, you can look at your website audit list of recommendations.
Some of your recommendations may fit into that month’s reminders and you can check those off!
Alternatively - you could have your website audited and make changes based on those recommendations. Then you’d have a “clean slate” to start reviewing and maintaining your website with the Your Website Buddy emails to keep it up-to-date.
The Website Audit works for Wix, Squarespace, Shopify, and other website platforms as well as WordPress!
How a Website Audit works:
1 -Use the link to book your 30-minute review session via Zoom and pay your fee. You’ll need to schedule the review session at least 7 days ahead to give me time to complete the audit.
2 - I’ll audit your website, create a report, and develop a list of recommendations.
3 - We’ll meet on Zoom to review the results. Then I’ll send you a copy of the report and recommendations.
How do I get the discount for a Website Audit?
You'll get access to the 25% off link in your onboarding emails when you subscribe!
For current subscribers, you'll receive an email with the 25% off link and it will be in your new support document!

Will this work for my site on my platform?
Yes! Your Website Buddy™ is not dependent on the website platform.
You can use WordPress.com, WordPress.org, Wix, Weebly, Squarespace, Shopify, Showit, Webflow, or other platforms.
As long as you can access your site and make changes, you can use this tool to help you update your site.
Can I use this with more than one site?
Yes, it is not specific to a particular site, so you can use the tips for as many sites as you like, no additional subscription needed
What if I get behind?
You can't get behind. Your Website Buddy™ is intended to help you with website tasks, not to give you one more thing to do on your list.
If there's something you don't want to or can't do, let it go or put it on your "later" list.
Do I have to know how to code?
Not unless your website is hand-coded. All you need to know how to do is edit your site on the platform you have.
If you can add or edit content, you should be able to do most of the tasks.
The exceptions might be editing your website header or footer or website navigation. And if you can't edit those, that's perfectly ok.
Are there any other fees?
No. $97 gets you the full year subscription.
I also may offer additional modules or special offers to Your Website Buddy Subscribers at an additional fee, but those would be separate items.
