Hey there, friend! Let’s chat about something that’s probably been on your mind if you’re in the course creation game: your online presence. If you’re like many course creators, you might be relying on tools like Linktree to keep everything organized. But let me ask you—is it really enough?
Picture this: You’ve put in countless hours into your online course. You’ve got content that could genuinely change lives, but every time you share that Linktree link, you wonder if your audience is really connecting with what you have to offer. Sound familiar?
The Convenience Trap of Linktree
Look, I get it. Linktree is convenient. It’s like a one-stop shop for all your links. But convenience can come at a price. What happens when a potential student clicks on your link and sees a list of options, but none of them really tell your story? A stunning course can easily get lost among a sea of links, and before you know it, puf, they’re gone!
Without a solid foundation, your audience might not understand why they should choose you. It’s like inviting someone to a fiesta but forgetting to tell them where the piñata is. You want them to engage, but it’s tough when you’re just throwing links at them with no personal touch.
Telling Your Story through Web Design
Here’s the thing: when you’re creating a course, you’re not just selling information—you’re sharing your passion, your journey, and your expertise. Imagine if your website could speak and tell visitors, “Hey, this is who I am, this is what I believe in, and this is how I can help you!”
Ericks Webs Design in McAllen, TX, specializes in building custom websites that don’t just look pretty, but also reflect your unique brand. A captivating website can do wonders. Picture a gorgeous layout that highlights your best content, testimonials from happy students, and easy navigation that keeps visitors engaged. You want them to feel drawn to your course, not overwhelmed by a bunch of links.
Mixing It Up with SEO and Branding
If you want to attract more eyes (and students) to your course, you’ll need more than a list of links; you need good SEO and branding. Here’s where we can really help your business shine. When your website is designed with SEO in mind, you’ll show up in Google searches, helping potential students find you.
This is also where branding plays a crucial role. Having a cohesive look and feel not only strengthens your identity but also builds trust amongst your audience. Visitors should feel like they’re in tu casa (your home) as soon as they land on your site!

A Mobile-Friendly Experience
Let’s talk tech for a second—don’t worry, I’ll keep it light! Are you aware that more than half of all web traffic comes from mobile devices? It’s true! Your potential students are likely scrolling through their phones while waiting for their tacos. If your site isn’t mobile-friendly, you’re losing out on serious potential.
Our team ensures that your website looks fantastic on every screen. That way, if someone clicks your link while enjoying a café de olla, they’re not squinting or frustrated; they’re engaged and ready to join your course.
Using Analytics to Track Success
Here’s where it gets exciting. A major advantage of having a dedicated website is the power of analytics. With Linktree, you’re mostly left wondering how many clicks you got. But with your own site, you can track actions. You’ll see where visitors are coming from, what they engaged with, and even when they dropped off. This information is gold!
By understanding your audience’s behavior, you can tailor your offerings and marketing strategies to better meet their needs. If you want to learn more about the importance of analytics, visit our blog on SEO.
Let’s Get Started!
At the end of the day, running a course is about connecting with your audience and providing them with value. While Linktree is a helpful tool, it can’t replace the need for a solid website that embodies your mission and showcases your offerings in a way that resonates.
Ready to take the leap? Whether you’re in McAllen or anywhere else, we at Ericks Webs Design want to help you create that custom website that makes a difference.
