<p>Hey guys,
I'm only a high school sophomore, but I'm really interested in starting my own business /website. Since I was a little kid, I've been intrigued by entrepreneurship, and I think now's a pretty good time to start.</p>
<p>Does anyone recommend any links/websites that would help start my journey???</p>
<p>Thanks </p>
<p>Sure. Code Academy and Wordpress. Other classes through edX or Coursera, for more formalized instruction. Try something like WIX if you just want to get it going on.</p>
<p>Thanks @ItsJustSchool I’ll check them out</p>

Books on basic HTML and CSS are a good starting point. Make sure you learn something about CSS3 as you can make a lot better looking website using it.</p>
<p>Are you interested in eCommerce or doing web design for businesses? I do some web design over the summer for small businesses, it pays well (usually, lol), and small businesses aren’t looking for much. </p>
<p>If you are going into hardcore eCommerce (e.g website with thousands of customers), you might have to look into higher level programming languages (jQuery, Javascript, PHP, etc). </p>
<p>Making a plain old website is pretty darn easy. I haven’t tried doing an eCommerce site just yet but I am working my way their. Feel free to PM me with questions, I’d love to help you out.</p>
<p>Thanks, I’m really not sure yet since I am truly a total beginner.
Thanks for the answer tho, and I’ll message you if I have questions!

<p>I recommend that beginners try using a CMS like wordpress or joomla first and then try programming. Youtube is also great for tutorials on things like this. </p>
