Why a web-site?We get a lot of fun from this web-site, trying out recipes and then sharing them with you, but why do we do it?The site is almost entirely built by Richard, that's me. I love trying new recipes and when they work out well I like to tell people. The failures tend to be kept a bit quieter! After I retired I had plenty of time to try out recipes, but there is a limit to how many meals can be cooked and eaten in a day so I still had time on my hands. I decided to use some of my spare time building this web-site, telling you about the recipes that worked well for us. The only question I had was "Can I do it?" I had plenty of spare time but not a lot of spare money. Who has?I got lucky. A search for web hosting services led me to SiteSell and the rest, as they say, is history. I discovered that "Yes, I can do it" and also with all the support I needed to do it right.
One of the
things that make it so good is that it is a
community of people doing the same as me, and some of them have made
videos like the one on the right that say the same as I do. The only software I used was a word processor (Microsoft Word, if you need to know). SBI provide a very complete set of tools that make building a site like this so very easy. As I got more confident I moved to using an HTML editor. Yes, SBI provided the video guide on how to make that transition as well. I have a shelf of books about HTML, web design and all sorts of technical stuff and I never open any of them. I just don't need them any more. If
you want to get a taste of how easy it is take a video tour. What do you think about this recipe? Leave us a comment in the box below. |
