My goal here is to show that even without any technical skills, one can build very cool websites.
As a non technical guy, I unsurprisingly chose wordpress to build my website.
There are are actually several social networking plugin for wordpress:
I think that they would have both worked out for me but I eventually opted for Peepso. I started with the free version and then upgraded (199$) to be able to add useful features to the website:
- A job board,
- A marketplace,
- A built-in messaging app.
Concretely:
– I watched plenty of Youtube tutorials. For example:
– I checked the videos on peepso Youtube channel:
https://www.youtube.com/@PeepSo
– I searched through Peepso’s documentation. For example, to override the text of some of their pre-built pages.
– I contacted Peepso’s online support when I was stuck.
The plugin is not perfect and not 100% flexible but I always found some workarounds and after 2 weeks I got an operational website I was happy with. I worked on this early in the morning or late in the evening.
Please let me know in the comments if you have any questions.
All the best
