I'm a huge noob when it comes to website building
you talk about wordpress often, sometimes you talk about wix but I haven't heard you discuss squarespace yet, why
of course attacker can create a customize backdoor to wordpress because it's open source . but the good thing is you can also create a patch to stop the attacker to backdooring your wordpress. all you need to do is learning a php so you can understand and read the code behind the curtain. always remember there's no safe place in word wide web and only localhost is a safety place. btw great tittle and video.

I like your video…I'm planning to build a Auction website using WordPress and price comparison website, what is your advice for me or tips that I can before kick off
Man im watching all your videos. Im learning a lot! Much appreciated!
Great video man, subscribed as soon as I watched it. I have experimented with webnode a few years back and now I decided to make kind of a money making site with an idea I had. Not e-commerce but just through the ad revenue (not that it will be much, but why not if i already have the traffic). Anyway, i was thinking of making my website with WordPress.org and probably using the elementor plugin. I just had a couple of questions if you could answer. A) Is that wordfence plugin free,like included when you pay your subscription, or do you pay extra? And b) When I bought the name of my website from a third party there was this deal that I could get ssl for practically nothing so I bought it, thinking it was needed for the security. But I am not sure now if I actually need it, or how to set it up, or really anything… It would mean the world to me if you could help me with these questions… Again great video, haven’t found many people making so useful and clearly presented content! Definitely watching more!
I actually think WordPress is the best option to use. It is very customizable and if you use Elementor you can create pretty much anything you want. For security you want to use wordfence and set up auto update for your plugins. We have people build amazing WordPress sites everyday.
What if I want to sell pdfs or online courses?
I really liked that you posted this video. I wanted to set up a pretty simple website and experiment with different themes. I didn't really want to spend too much time playing around with containers and wanted some out of the box set ups for organizing my site. I started with WordPress and after wasting a lot of time went on to try constantcontact, which was really nice to start out with but I found it to be too limited so I thought hey why not try WordPress again but then again it was a lot of time wasting to organize my content and then everything was breaking. I found it to be totally unproductive as a person who knows how to code but too lazy to do it by hand. In the end I settled on wix.com, which I found to be much much faster to set everything up for site that wasn't going to be too complex and was going to allow me to include my own custom code when I needed to.
l once built a bologna sandwich and then it got eaten by my mouth. It was gooood.
I'm so confused. Lol. Can I just pay someone I think is trust worthy to get me all set up?
WARNING ⚠️: 🛑 DISCLAIMER ALERT!!..DISCLAIMER ALERT!! Why Should we worry about Security when we got you, Da Man?!! lol
I'm Just Starting In Marketing And Man, Thank Tha Heavens For A Genius Titan Like You!! This Is Fascinating, just Fascinating! Be Safe Brotha, Stay Healthy & More Importantly Live long 🖖and prosper!!!!

i have a small cheaper thinkpad and new ipad standard, i can update on a ipad, but ill need the laptop to setup wordpress in the cloud, is that correct?
Hey loved your video. Well done! 🙂
What about a simple subscription model. What would be the best / cheapest / easiest solution in your opinion?
I want a full free solution with strong protection with no compromise for e-commerce website. I don’t care if I have to spend hours days or months to raw code but i need security and i need it to be free because i can't afford even a dollar of payment. Because of where I'm from and my financial situation but If end up with good consistent revenue I have no problem to pay. But first I need to launch it for free. I would do PC hosting if I have to. Please I'm in desperate need of your Guidance.
I like the video and you make some good points. But, having moved from Weebly, to Squarespace, to Wix, to WordPress for my business, I can't ever imagine going back. I kept needing to upgrade my plan to do basic features. The drag and drop is nice, but then it would break things. Could never get SEO and traffic cruising. And, I would reach a point where I would need a feature and support would just say "yeah, not sure if we'll ever let you do that". One of the biggest mistakes was not choosing WordPress from day 1 because I was intimidated by it. Honestly, with page builders, the learning curve is only a little bit higher. And there are options to have someone set up the initial install and basics for you. Just my two cents.
Dude…Thank you. Love your vids & melow style. Some of these vids are in your face open this, click that, this, this. Before you know it you just spent $500 w a representative of Godaddy. Some of these ppl speak so fast you don't have time to digest what they're saying( even some gym toned white guy. Like dude take a breath already lol). You're clear concise, from what I can tell well educated on your subject matter. Subscribed. TY.
That is a good point when you use WordPress you are a target.
Can WordPress site be hacked if there is only info on it?
Great heads-up on who shouldn't use WordPress. I'm curious to know, when you showed the Word Fence screen grab, you were taking about compromised plug-ins. Was Word Fence compromised at some point or was that a subliminal suggestion for a good security plug-in.
Hi, I just subscribed. Great vids so far, very authentic opinions.
i can't use it i am not an tech nut
to be honest wix and squarespace basic have to many up sale
just like esty and shopfie
sir, what if the e-commerce site is built using scratch like amazon , wouldn't it be a greater platform than shopify or wix ..
sir , i want to ask which is a better option to build a website according to you whether i should opt wordpress or wix…..
The information on the video is very good but the title should be more descriptive.
Good and honest review, but I don't know where to go for cheep E-commerce solution, shopify have great features but there price is very high!
I loved your chair where did you get it?
When you say you can check another of your videos out and point to the 'up here' – there is nothing there. No big deal for me, just mentioning in case you want to add it in. Thanks for all the great content!
Hey Christian,
I just subscribed to your channel.
Do you think you might do a comparison to Digital download platforms… like
Payloadz. …
Gumroad. …
Sellfy. …
Easy Digital Downloads. …
E-junkie. …
ClickBank. …
Fetch App. …
Send Owl.
I am about to get into selling digital download mp3's… And I am researching the best platforms and software to use.
After watching your videos I think I will be going with namecheap for the domain and Hostinger for the hosting.
But I am still up in the air on a digital download delivery platform.. Help!….
I am a newbie and trying to minimize my mistakes. lol
Thanks for sharing..
thank you
Wow it is so great that you did this video. Now I know.

Ive been waiting for someone to do a video like this
I wish you had a video where you walk a business through the options they should take
Damnit! Stop making videos like this and just do a walkthrough video
The first shall be aware
