Welcome to the second episode of "Technically, A Podcast"! Hosted by Mia,  a web developer and software engineer with a thriving freelance career spanning diverse industries.

This episode marks the second installment of a two-part series focused on laying the foundation for your online presence. Whether you're an experienced tech wizard or a newbie, there's something here for everyone.

In this episode we are going to get into how to choose a website platform, and also some tips and tricks to grow your social media following and boost engagement.

In part one, we talked a bit about website aesthetics and features that are crucial for a good website.  Now we are going to take a step back and discuss website builder platforms and e-commerce.  There are plenty out there, but for the sake of this episode, I'll introduce a few of the popular ones: Wix,  Squarespace,  and WordPress.com.

Later, the episode briefly switches gears to talk about social media, specifically Instagram, and the best ways to grow your following.   Instagram can be extremely valuable for small businesses because it provides a visually engaging platform to showcase products or services,  connect with a broader audience,  and foster brand loyalty through authentic storytelling.

As we wrap up this episode, keep in mind that your online presence is a journey, not a destination.

In our next episode, we'll explore generative AI, particularly ChatGPT. Stay tuned for more insights, tips, and web wisdom in the upcoming episodes of "Technically, A Podcast." Feel free to reach out with questions or topics you'd like me to cover. Until next time!
