Day 25 - March 12th (5hrs)

Unfortunately, today was set-back day during my mentorship. As I continued to work on my website, I realized that Weebly does not let me do certain things the way I want to do it. There were certain tools that aren´t provided, and I simply realized that the tool will not let me work as efficient as I want to work. Having some previous knowledge of the website builder Wix, I decided to delete my work from Weebly and start over with Wix. It was a very tough moment when I realized that the past 2 days of work that have been put into my first website were basically gone, but the good thing was that I haven´t created too many different pages, and the core concept of the website can be applied on my new project as well. Another reason as to why I decided to change over to Wix was because of the second website I will be building in German. Wix will allow me to transition between the two more easily and I won´t run in to issues regarding using different languages, which was one of the minor problems I ran into on Weebly. This being said, I started creating my website from scratch again, beginning with the layout and homepage. I decided to keep it very simple, having a homepage, blog page, about me page ad contact page. I started creating the homepage, adding different pictures and a little banner explaining the purpose of the website. I found it relatively difficult to find the right image for my website, as I did not want to choose a simply picture that would not attract any potential customers. After deliberating with myself, I decided to use a current team picture I have from Tiffin University. I decided that this will be more relatable to the American players that I want to reach. Looking at the website I will be creating for my German market, I will choose more impressive pictures of bigger schools in order to create the ”wow” factor and show them what can be possible, as most of them will not be familiar with college sports at all. Completing the homepage concluded my workday, and I will continue to work on both websites in the following week.
