"I had no idea where to start... I was, in fact, basically clueless"
“When I decided to set up a website for my Trauma-Informed Life Coach business I had no idea where to start, what resources to use, what hosting site to use, how to register a domain name, or where to find and import images, I was in fact basically clueless.
A friend recommended Done Right Website Academy and I immediately signed up. It was a game-changer for me! I found April to be an excellent instructor. Her classes were organized and informative.
She is an expert in the field of website design. No question was left unanswered. She was patient with repeat questions as well. She provided plain step-by-step instructions so we, as students, were capable to build our personalized website. I highly recommend this course.”

Hi! I'm April Hiatt, your website trainer... the person who will help you succeed!
Let’s face it. Building a website can be intimidating and scary.
You feel like there’s so much to do, it’s overwhelming.
What do you do first? How does it all connect together?
You know you need a website, but are afraid you won’t be able to figure out how to set it up or it won’t look good.
Maybe you already have a website, but you’re embarrassed to send people to it because it doesn’t reflect your business.
You have a list of things you’re supposed to do, but have no idea HOW to do them. You don’t have time to figure out which tech is best, let alone how to use it!
Where you were once excited to get started, that enthusiasm is fading quickly as fear and overwhelm set in.
YOU NEED HELP!
You don’t want a completely DIY course… if you get stuck, you want to have someone you can ACTUALLY TALK TO who will answer your questions and help you keep moving!
And need a website for your business, and you need to be able to create it with limited tech skills and no design experience.
"Her encouragement is refreshing... as she helps each person succeed."
“April is so good at what she does! She has broken down the course into an easy-to- follow step-by-step format and teaches concepts simply and clearly.
She is approachable and patient as she works with where each individual is at in the process of website creation. Her encouragement is refreshing and her love for what she does is evident as she helps each person succeed. Thank you, April!”
–Heather Eschmeyer, Certified Identity and Purpose Coach
You're Ready to grow YOUR BUSINESS!
And you NEED a website to do it!
It's time to get your business out to the world... in a beautiful, professional way
Have you ever visited a website to learn more about a business?
But when you got there, you either couldn’t find what you were looking for or the website looked unprofessional?
Were you immediately turned off and clicked away?
THIS DOES NOT NEED TO BE YOUR BUSINESS!
You can have a website that is clear, easy to understand, focused, looks amazing, generates leads, and appeals to your ideal client.
NO coding, no tech overwhelm, and no design skills required!
- Imagine how good it will feel when someone asks for your website address, and you answer proudly... because you actually want people to visit your site.
- How cool will it be when someone asks for help and you have a lead magnet (freebie) you can send them that solves their immediate problem, and now they are on YOUR email list!
- Be able to sleep well knowing you are ready to grow your business and take on new clients...with the tech automated for you in the background.
- Have your foundations set up so you get new leads and focus on building your business to fit your vision. Spend your time doing the part you love.
- Whenever you need to make updates, there is no waiting for someone else because you know how to do it yourself!
"The course is very in-depth, but simple to understand even for the "tech-challenged person."
“I loved that you went in depth about branding and teaching about your target market, etc. I felt that you cared about everyone succeeding in building their own website, and making sure it looked good too.
I appreciated that you were available to answer any questions we had and that you gave your honest opinion….
You always made sure that [I] didn’t feel “stupid” when [I] didn’t know the tech. The course is very in-depth, but simple to understand even for the “tech-challenged” person.
I loved that the videos were very in-depth and labeled so we knew exactly where to go and find the answer. You have a fun personality and can communicate very well so we could understand and follow the step-by-step directions.”

I would highly recommend this course. It is a great tutorial of starting from the ground up.
Learning the principles and tools of creating not only a website, but a brand and business model. April walks you through all the needed steps in a clear and concise way. It’s a great format to go at your own pace.
I enjoyed the ease of using the portal for the self guided video lessons and enjoyed the visuals and slides and the extra resources/downloads shared.
I enjoyed the flexibility of listening to the videos at my convenience. The video instruction quality was very professional as well as the course content. I appreciated April’s flexibility and availability for open office hours. She was very accommodating and very helpful.

YOUR INVESTMENT:
"The Done Right Website course was an answer to my website woes!"
April’s “Done right website” course was an answer to my website woes!!!!
Years ago, I tried to have someone build a website for me and it was a nightmare and waste of money. I never felt like they understood “the look” I was really going for (I don’t think I did either) and in the end I hated how unprofessional the final product looked.
Then, I tried to have my husband build one for me, but that ended up in more fights than it was worth. I tried a DIY web builder, but I had no idea what I was doing and basically gave up.
Fast forward to April’s class… I was so impressed how detailed the course was. Everything was easy to understand and the step-by-step process was very doable.
I was put as ease from day one with learning the tech part. In the past, I would have a panic attack over learning all the tech, but April has a way with explaining it at a level that even a “computer challenged” person, like myself, could understand. April is also very entertaining and has a great personality and really wants you to “get it”.
If I had any questions, she was very quick to give me an answer by email or set up a call to help with anything I was struggling with. At the end of the course, I felt pretty confident with the final product and now I can say I have a website that I am proud of!!! Plus, I can make all the updates myself and don’t have to pay anyone else to do it.
Thank you, April, for giving me the confidence I needed to finally get it done!!! Plus, my husband is happy that I don’t have to bug him about building me a website anymore…priceless!!!
–Lori Randall, Sacred Soul Space Mentor
wondering about a couple things?
Questions You May Have... and the Answers
Yes.
I have worked with students ages 18 to 72, and I haven’t had one yet that couldn’t do it.
I walk with you the entire way. I want to see you succeed. I will help you. And if you need extra help along the way, I have office hours set aside just for my current students… at no extra charge. It’s included in your course.
That all being said, if you enroll and get started, and feel you can’t do it, let me know within the first two weeks and I will refund your money, no questions asked.
If you try, but still need help, I will work with you individually to get your business online, I am that committed to your success.
This is totally up to you! If you want to buckle down and just “get it done”–you can do everything in as little as week.
However, realistically I would give yourself a couple of weeks so you have time to really think about things as you go along.
(Note: everyone learns at a different pace, and everyone is able to “get stuff done” at a different pace–so you will need to adjust this time to fit your own personal learning and working schedule.)
Once the course is finished and you have your website done, the time commitment will be considerably less.
Just know that you will now have the skills to make any changes or updates to your website as you go along and your business grows.
Absolutely!
The website set up and foundations I teach are important for ANY business.
The templates and outlines used can be customized to any online business. Feel free to come to my office hours and we can adjust things to your individual business.
I am also happy to create a template that fits your business if the ones I offer won’t work.
I am guessing if you already have a website, you aren’t happy with it. So, you will need to make some decisions.
This course teaches you to build a WordPress website using the Elementor Pro plugin. If you already have a WordPress website, you can either improve what you have with the skills you learn in the course, or you can start from scratch.
I also use Siteground as the hosting provider. If you have a WordPress website with a different hosting company, you can continue to use that, no need to switch hosting accounts.
If you have a website on a different platform (Wix, Weebly or Squarespace), you’ll need to decide if you want to take the principles we learn in class and update your site on your own, (I can give you suggestions on content), or create something fresh. I am not an expert in any of those other platforms and do not teach them in this course
If you have more questions, feel free to email me at april@aprilhiatt.com and I am happy to answer your questions.
When it comes down to it, the question of whether the Done Right Website Academy is worth the investment is really up to you.
Of course, you can crawl through thousands of YouTube tutorials containing competing and differing advice and spend countless hours trying to duct tape useful snippets together.
You can purchase several online courses and work on them all one at a time and hope you don’t have any questions along the way.
Or you can make a one-time investment in the Done Right Website Academy and receive access to a step-by-step course and access to a LIVE teacher. You can ask questions and get feedback from me… making setting up your website easier than ever.
The tough love bottom line?
When you decide to join the Academy, you’re investing in more than just an online course – you’re investing in yourself, your business and your future profitability.
Yes.
Just like in school you need to purchase books, there are a few things you will need to invest in.
I believe in total transparency, so here is a list of additional fees you will incur and the approximate cost. I have listed the price as they are today (the day I am creating this page), but since these are out of my control, it is possible they could go up before I get this page updated to reflect the current pricing.
Additional fees and approximate pricing:
Domain: (your website address or URL) about $20 a year (you have to renew your domain every year)
Hosting: about $5 a month to get started. Most hosting companies give a discount if you pay for the first year in advance.
Elementor Pro: $59/year (there is a free version of Elementor you can use, but for all the extra things and integrations we do in this class, the Pro version is required).
Canva (or Canva Pro): The free account will work just fine, but if you decide to upgrade for all the cool extra things, the Pro account is about $10/month.
Schedule Once or Calendly: I use the free version. No extra cost here.
Mailerlite: free for the first 1000 subscribers. After that, it starts at $15/month. (But if you are like me, you will gladly pay the $15/month for more than 1000 subscribers on your list).
Privacy Policy for your website: the privacy policy template I recommend is free. However, if you want to add a “Terms of Use” and “Disclaimer”, which I totally recommend, it will be a one time fee of $50 for the package I suggest.
Absolutely!
I will have pre-made templates you can use and customize, drag and drop editors, and show you how to use it all.
And for those that want to do things on their own, I will show you how to do that too.
Great question!
For branding and logo design: Canva (I highly recommend Canva Pro, although the free version works great too.)
For websites: WordPress and Elementor Pro
(WordPress itself is free, but you will need to invest in hosting, we will use Siteground for this class, and purchase a domain. Elementor does have a free version, but for this class you will need the Pro version, which is $59 per year. NOTE: our founding class will have Elementor Pro included for FREE–my gift to you!)
For email automation: Mailerlite (free for the first 1000 subscribers)
For online scheduling: Calendly or Schedule Once (I use the free version)
This is the same tech stack I use in my own business and recommend to all my clients.
I have office hours set up for current students. Feel free to schedule a time to meet (Zoom room) and ask any questions you have.
I am here to help you. I want to see you succeed.
That is exactly why you want to take this course!
You will know how to do that and be comfortable with making changes. As your business grows, you will have the tech know-how and confidence to grow with it.
For detailed specifics, check out my “Terms of Use” link the bottom of this page.
In general, if either before the class begins, or up to a week after we have started, you decide this is not for you, I will refund your money, no questions asked.
If you complete the class and feel you weren’t able to get everything done or couldn’t figure it all out, I will work with you individually at no extra cost to get your website built.
Of course. I take two individual website clients per month.
Depending on your specific needs, a complete website package (branded website, professional email, lead magnet, email automation, scheduling calendar integration, training) like what you get in the Done Right Website Academy runs between $2300 – 2800.
If you are interested in this, please email me at april@aprilhiatt.com and I can give you more information. Or visit my Complete Website Packages page.

Enroll in the DONE RIGHT WEBSITE ACADEMY.
A little background on me, your instructor…
I was a licensed teacher for 15 years, taught adults at the Applied Technology College and currently own a website strategy & design company.
Last year, I decided to go back to my passion of teaching when I got tired of attending webinars that gave you a list of things to do to build your business, but never showed you HOW TO do it with the tech.
I decided I could DO SOMETHING about it and teach the tech to beginning business owners so they are empowered to set up and grow their business… the DONE RIGHT WEBSITE ACADEMY was born!
I make complicated things simple to understand.
If you've been telling yourself for months, "Yes, I really need to get a website done,"
but haven't done it yet...
