Personal Websites

“Person Websites that Express the Unique Puzzle Piece that You Are”

Why You Need Your Own Personal Website

Your website is like your puzzle piece that fits into humanities overall puzzle picture. It is a display telling others who you are, what gifts and talents you have, and where to find you. It’s all about networking and to be found you need to be fully expressed.

The new emerging economy is based on people rather than things. It is about connecting those that have gifts and talents with those that need them. It is worldwide with no borders to stop the free flow of those getting to where they are needed. In the past paradigm everyone kept themselves hidden, as a form of protection, so they wouldn’t be harmed. Now the best way to stay safe and sustain yourself is to be as fully expressed as possible. Put everything that you are into your website and don’t hold back, so that it will attract those that need what you have to share and allow them to fit their puzzle piece with yours.

“It’s not about making the pieces fit into a frame, the edge of the frame is created naturally by the puzzle pieces being joined together as a group.”

This is your website. It is your expression of you. You will have to learn how use the tools to run it in order to fully express yourself. No one can tell you who you are, only you can do that. Behind the scenes designers and ghost writers are becoming obsolete. It’s all about personal expression and transparency. The technical part of getting your website up and going has been done for you. Now it’s your turn to let your creative juices flow and express yourself through your websites layout, pictures, text, and videos. It is an organic process that is always changing as you change.

Make your website the full expression of who you are. Have fun with it and grow with it and it will be of great service to you becoming more aware of who you really are. The internet is teaching us that we are already telempathically connected. It connects those who have something unique with those who need that unique thing.

Put Everything on Your Website | Then Link It To Facebook

Shift your mindset to your website being the place for posts and pictures rather than Facebook. Upload Pictures and Posts to your website and then link them back to Facebook. This way people will always led back to your website, the post won’t get lost down your timeline, and it will be searchable by google and on your own website. Your website is the much more capable at expressing your unique robust nature that Facebook.

People want to find you, so they can benefit from what you have to offer and this requires your data to be made available to Google through a website it can access and index. Facebook posts don’t work like that. They get lost and pushed down very quickly and are not part of Google’s system. People need to find you and come to your site to see who you are, so they can fit their puzzle piece to yours. Facebook is too limited and heavily controlled to be a valid way to express yourself. Facebook is designed to limit who sees your posts so you will pay to get more exposure.

New open source social network platforms will eventually take the place of closed source built for profit platforms like Facebook. By building your own website you will be prepared for this shift, because you will already have gathered and organized the information that represents the unique puzzle piece that you are. Because Facebook has most of the traffic, you will want to continue to use it until the new networks come online.

5 Ways I Make It Easy For You To Design Your Own Website

Being able to design your own website is self empowering. I want to make so easy and inexpensive you can’t resist going for it. There is no reason that everyone can’t have their own amazing website. Here are five reasons why you can design your own website:

1. I set up your website, so all you have to do is login and start designing your unique expression.
2. I use WordPress, which is easy, open source, and the most popular platform for websites on the internet.
3. I use Elegant Themes Divi Premium Theme to make website layout and design a breeze.
4. I’ve gathered together links to great tutorials so you can teach yourself how to use wordpress and Divi.
5. I’ve held the price as low as I possibly could, which is 60% to 80% lower than a similarly featured sites.

In addition to being easy, other benefits are:

1. Top Quality. Web hosting is on our own Virtual Private Server (VPS) where we can allocate the proper resources to make our websites fast, unlike low cost shared hosting plans.
2. You can have your own store on your site, so you can sell your products on both your site and the Harmonious Earth site. We can cross promote each other.

Why I Want to Co-Create Your Personal Website With You

I am excited to see people live their joy and be sustained by it. One of my passions is to assist others in the expression their joy, in this case through websites. There are plenty of other designers who can build you a website. What I want to do is empower you to build your own site, so it is a true expression of you and not a designer. The world wants to know who you are and you are the only one who can express that and you are ever changing and you want to be able to change your own website as you change.

If you ready to go full in, then take steps towards being fully expressed on your own site. Begin by doing a more traditional site that is geared towards commerce, and at a minimum include who you are and that the products are a result of your passion on your websites, so people can see that what you are selling is in alignment with your values and your highest joy and you are not focused on just making money. People no longer just want your product, they want what went into it and why.

If all you want is a traditional business website without a face then working with me would not be a good fit. There are other website creators that would be better suited fill that need.

What We Agree On To Work Together

I would be excited and motivated to setup and host your personal puzzle piece website if you feel like you resonate with the following:

1. You have the desire and the dedication to build a website that fully expresses you. You are excited to have your website show the shape of the puzzle piece that you are and how you fit in with other puzzle pieces to make the big puzzle picture.
2. You feel free to express yourself in any way you can imagine without being worried about what others might say, as best as you can.
3. It is your desire that your website, and each product and service on it, be a reflection of your joy and that money comes as a result of your joy and not the other way around. You know it doesn’t work to do things for money. Put simply, “you do what you do because you love it and you know it will sustain you.”
4. If we both feel it would benefit us both, you would be willing to put your products and services on the Harmonious Earth website, so we can promote you, help you sell your product, and in return we get a reasonable small commision or kick back for selling your product or service.

These ideas are meant to get us on the same page, to guide us, and can be changed. You do not need to do them all at once, but if you are in alignment with them and have the desire and dedication to work towards them it will add to the joy of both of us.

Website Options and Pricing

What’s Included with Your New Website

See the Pricing Table for various options and what is included with each option. All of these prices assume you are going design and administer your website yourself. I’ll set you up with the basic foundation and you will need to add content, text, pictures, videos and make design changes yourself. If you need help with something beyond that, we can talk about it and come to an agreement on an amount that will work for us both.  If I am not able to do it, I can refer you to someone who is. The point is to empower yourself with the tools necessary to express the unique puzzle piece you are on the internet.

If you want a different theme than Divi you can purchase it at your own cost of about $63, or you can pick a theme from any of the 87 themes from ElegantThemes.com for free. If you pick a theme I’m not familiar with, the options I offer and prices will be different. I can get it installed for you, but there is a learning curve with each new theme. Call me at 310-633-1777 or email me at kirk@kirknielsen.com to talk more.

It is my excitement to arrange it so you getting your new website is a pleasant experience for me and you both. If you would like to pay by cash, check, direct deposit, or make payments, call me and we can work something out. If you want to customize the options you get with your website, let me know and we can arrange a custom package of features that meets your needs.

Description and Pricing for Website Hosting

I use a fast private secure VPS Server to host our sites. I have full control over the resources so I can increase them and keep the speed high as our sites get more traffic. Our server is a private server, not a shared server, and hosts only our sites, which means our site are fast and secure. Shared servers, that you can get for $5 per month, tend to be unbearably slow which hurts your Google search ranking and does not encourage people to stay on your site.

Our hosting service is $10 per month or $120 per year. When you pay a year in advance you save $20, which makes it only $8.33 per month or $100 per year per website. I ask that you pay for a whole year in advance, so we can keep the costs and accounting down to a minimum. With your new website you received 3, 6, 9, or 12 months of “Free hosting,” depending on the option package you bought. This makes getting you up and running as affordable and seamless as possible. Be sure to renew your yearly hosting service at the end of your free period, so you don’t have any interruptions in your hosting.

Why I Keep My Pricing Low

What I am excited about is seeing people live their joy, being sustained by it, and assisting them in their expression of it, in this case through websites.

The going rate for sites with similar features are typically double what I am charging. You can get inexpensive sites but when you really compare apples for apples they don’t compare. What I am offering are high quality websites with high quality hosting at very low prices. I am doing this because I’m excited to see you express yourself, live your joy and work together with us to create a world where everyone joins with us.

For this to be fun and in the flow, it is important that you are aligned with this idea and that you resonate with this “puzzle piece” concept. You can read more about it by clicking here. If you are ready to jump in you can click the button below to “Pay Now.”

I’m excited to live my highest joy, which for me means to be involved with people and situations that bring in a new paradigm of living in a more harmonious and egalitarian way, and move away from hierarchical or master slave business models. I do what I do because I love it. What I love to do sustains me. I don’t do anything to make money. Life works. It provides me with what I need to express my joy. No one needs to do anything they don’t want to do for me to be happy and live my joy. Everyone living their highest joy! That’s the world I want to live in.
