| 0:00.0 | Heyo! Welcome to the 100 R&B8 show where it's not just about money, it's about building your legacy |
| 0:16.8 | with our daily 10 minute business lessons for the real world. |
| 0:20.3 | I'm your host, your coach, your teacher Omar Zenhome. |
| 0:23.0 | I'm also the co-founder of the $100 MBA, a complete business training and community online. |
| 0:28.8 | And today is part two of our two-part lesson choosing a platform to create your website. |
| 0:34.5 | In the last episode we talked about WordPress. |
| 0:37.1 | Today we're going to be focusing on two other players, Square Space and Rainmaker. |
| 0:41.7 | I'm going to talk about why these platforms are great for certain types of businesses and certain types of needs. |

| 1:34.6 | $8 a month plan is really not usable. It's got limited pages and it's not really |
| 1:39.0 | great for building a business. I probably go with the professional or the business plan which is $16 a month or $24 a month. |
| 1:46.6 | So you just pay this monthly fee, they do the hosting for you, you can use it in one of their templates, |
