it's funny how a lot of help articles can be boiled down to one of
a) it's really easy, just give us money
b) it's really hard, so give us money
people act like the only worthwhile use case of the web is financial gain. no one has any tips or hints on how to make a personal website, it's always "build your brand" or "showcase your portfolio" or some other transparently profit-motivated initiative. everyone is always talking about the sales funnel or the call to action or whatever. it's just *assumed* you are also like this.
