Hey guys, I'm very new to this. Need someone who is patient and willing to work with me to design my Fitness website...


Some ideas I have planned:...


A forum similar to Facebook, scrollable on the main page linked to Twitter/IG/Favebook

The left side panel having clickable categories that direct to different pages...
For example;

Training
Nutrition
Meal prep
Supplements
Apparel
Testimonials...

Etc...

Ideas on making the website easy to navigate and fun to be on! Ideas on providing more traffic and possibly advertisement (that's not annoying or slowing down people's computers)... Something short sweet and simple. Possibly providing registration to accounts? I'm here to get ideas from the pros, any input would help :-) thank you!

You'll find people who are paid by the hour are very patient.

good thing I'm finding someone who will accept my service request

Not here you arn't.

My tips: don't replicate FB behavior if you can use FB.
Open a page on FB to cover the social part of your online presence: will be easier to get visit on this page and from here get visits for your site.
For the site you can use wordpress: install and configure a theme.
You will find tons of "how to"...

Awesome! Thank you so much for your help. Just checked out the website I'll be using that :)... Is there a way to import custom templates? Like if I purchase a graphic design from these forums can I implement it to the website? And would it be difficult for me to manage it on my own? Would I need someone to run it for me? Thanks for the help :-)

WP is the most used CMS to realize websites: in case you get bloked is easyer to find help
