Kayleigh and Oktober- you need to put a sub title set up issues and then write about the issues that might arise. This only has to be a paragraph but needs to include things like technical skills, whether you spend the money getting someone else to build your website? choosing the name, considering the style and design etc. Each of the bullet points above needs a few sentences on each.
