Question

Joe runs a handyman service. He enjoys writing and keeping up on the latest trends. He wants to share this information with his clients. He decides that he would like to create an online community where he can frequently post information. He'd like his readers to be able to add to and comment on his entries. Although Joe knows his way around the Internet, he is not a programmer, by any means, so he is looking for a simple solution. In 5–10 sentences, describe the points that Joe needs to consider when choosing a telecommunications technology to meet his needs.

Answer 1

I’d suggest that Joe should open a blog. Opening a blog these days has become cheap and almost free. He can always start with a blog and then move on to other platforms immediately he establishes himself fully. Joe needs to be aware of a number of things before jumping into blogging or any other platforms that might be able to push his content online. He should be able to identify his niche and define his target audience. He should focus more on quality rather that quantity. Content is King. He should also consider ways in which he can increase traffic through social media platforms.

Answer 2

Joe should start a facebook page, it is free and requires no programming. He could also start a twitter account, same concept. He really does not need to program a web page. But, however, there are plenty of services like squarespace.com or wix.com that allow you to create websites for a small cost that require little to no programming.
