Idk..I've been studying UI/UX design and they recommend putting the logo in the lefthand corner because that's where people are used to seeing it. Also, the hero section picture is so busy the entire thing looks extremely overwhelming and is lacking visual hierarchy in my opinion. Sorry, I'm not trying to give unsolicited advice, but these things are important for web design and perhaps someone in the comments will run across this info and find it useful. Great content though!!!!
Codi! Thanks for your feedback, I always appreciate other opinions! xx.
I just pulled up my hero - pleeease don't call the cops on me! 😂😂 This is timely, though, because I've been thinking about how to refresh it. Thank you for another awesome video. Liked and subscribed.
Whoop whoop! I'm so glad you found this helpful, friend!
This channel is THE PLUG 🔥🔥🔥
Ah so helpful! As a PM I'm always struggling with what to ask my copywriters for structurally. This is perfect!
Jeanne! Gosh, I'm so glad to hear it bud! :)
Awesome
I'm glad you found this helpful, Michael! :)
This video is so helpful! I would love an episode on writing the value proposition!
Great idea, Crystal! :) I'll add it to the list!
Helpful thanks Ashley, still in the process of creating a website. I'll make sure to follow these guidelines.
Ahh, so exciting Margaret! If you have any questions along the way, please let me know! xx.
Switch up!
WHOOP! Were you able to make some changes, Chiantelle??
Very helpful 👍, thanks 🙏
Mary! You are welcome, friend!
So Good. Very valuable information Ashley! Thank you!
You are so welcome, friend!!
Amazing tips 🔌
Glad you found this helpful, Markis!
Helpful!
I'm so glad, Brian! Let me know if you have any questions, ok??
First video I've seen here. Learned of this channel from Paige Brunton (whose content I love). Pretty sure I'll end up binge-watching 🙂
I'm a big fan of Paige, too! :) Thank you for the kind words! xx.

Whoop whoop!
Hey Ashlyn! I'm a proud PTL student and can't thank you enough for the help you've given me to create my own launch/editorial calendar. Really looking forward to your next round of CFC (I'll be ready to join!). I'd love to start implementing your guidelines to my homepage to the best of my knowledge until I join CFC. If you don't mind, I have one question, what exactly is the break it down now process?
Priyanka! Ah! Got it-that's an "Ashlynism" and what we call it with our clients and students when we're asking them to have a section or canvas on the landing page dedicated to helping the prospect see that it's (in essence) as "easy as 1-2-3." So many times we give them a ton of info, and that's a good thing, but the point of that section is to boil it down and simplify the message by showing them "look, we've given you a lot here, but you can start with X, do Y, and achieve Z ... it's really that simple." I hope that helps!
Thanks so much, Ashlyn! I had an inkling that's what it meant - at first, it sounded like a breakdown of the business owner/creative's workflow or process, but you once said during a live stream that sharing workflows on the home page might be excessive. So that's why I asked. Thank you for clarifying!
@@priyanka7264 Thank you for asking this! I wasn't sure, but Ashlyn's explanation makes perfect sense.
I love your content and have learned a ton from it. I am curious however what specific advise you would give people whose websites are home for their blogs and writing primarily. Writers platforms and blogger websites seem like they might be set up a little differently. I have been working on applying your 12 sections to an author website but I am not sure exactly what that would look like XD
Hey, Bekah! It's always nice to hear from another writer. :) Ok-I know exactly what you're talking about (I think)-if your BLOG page functions as your HOME page, how do you apply these things?
If I'm hearing you correctly, I'm still in the camp that you need a home page like I've talked about, but your big kahuna that you're driving off your homepage to would be your blog page (rather than "reach out for services), because THAT is what monetizes your business. So most your links to get started or take the next step would likely point to various blog posts.
Is that what you're asking? I had a blog-first website from 2009-2012. Obviously I work with more folks (even authors!) who monetize APART FROM their posts, so if you monetize in any capacity (editing services, consulting services, partnerships, books, etc.) beyond your blog, I would let your homepage function separately from your blog content.
@@AshlynWrites I definitely have a home page. My website is a home base as I work to make a platform for pursuing publishing. So I am not necessarily trying to make money on it as much as I am building a following. The parts that I am struggling with are these:
What sort of social proof would a beginner writer have?
And in your 12 steps you mention a break down of the process. I'm not sure how this would look on a writer/bloggers website.
And lastly (although this might just be a me issue) I am STUCK writing my sentence for the hero.
great video - thank you! I signed up to receive the 44 Questions, but it still has not shown up in my Inbox (not in spam either). How can I get access to this? thanks!
Hi friend ... sorry to hear that! Can you send an email over to hello@ashlynwrites.com? Rach, on my team, is the *best* at figuring out these tech glitches! We will get it to ya ASAP! :) xx.

Whoop whoop!
Have you every reviewed home pages for food blogs? Do you think that they need the hero section like a business website would need or just to go straight into recipes?
Above the fold I see 8 options, to me that is tooooooooo much.
Chelo! Thank you for your thoughts! Will you let me know what questions you have?? Here to help! :)
@@AshlynWrites why you force me to burn too many calories in my brain (quoting Donald Miller Build Your Brand book) with so many options above the fold if the purpose is to be simple (no difficult as you say in the video?
