My first website for ESL teachers

Hello 👋 I've been teaching English as a second language in Korea for 16 years and I have built this website.

https://classendo.com/

It is aimed at teachers, not students, to help them build lessons and teach in a classroom. I launched last week and I am still waiting to be fully indexed on Google.

I want it to be a simple website that is easy to understand with a low learning curve for teachers.

*edited to include a click able link. It's primarily a desktop site not for mobile

Just launched... today! Let's see what happens.

Just launched my first real website — now waiting to see what happens

I've been working on a website for quite a while alongside my normal job, and I've finally reached the point where I've stopped building it in private and actually launched it.

It's an education website aimed at teachers, and I've built pretty much everything myself with the help of AI coding tools. I'm definitely not an SEO expert, so one of the things I'm most interested in now is seeing whether I can actually get organic traffic to it.

My plan from here is mainly:

- Get the site properly indexed by Google and Bing

- Work on SEO and targeting searches teachers are actually making

- Make as much of the useful content publicly accessible as possible

- Gradually improve pages based on what actually gets impressions and clicks

- See whether any of that eventually converts into paying users

I've deliberately reached the point where I think I need to stop endlessly adding features and actually see whether anyone finds and uses the thing.

At the moment I'm basically starting from zero, so there's not much exciting data to share yet. But I thought this might be a good place to document what happens from launch onwards — including traffic, Google Search Console results, sign-ups, paid users, what works and what turns out to be a complete waste of time.

I've read quite a few "just start" stories over the years, so I suppose this is mine.

Site is Classendo.com if anyone wants to see what I'm starting with. I'm also very open to criticism, particularly around SEO, because that's the part I'm currently trying to learn.

I'll post an update once there's actually some data to talk about.

Best defensive performance

One of the best performances ive ever seen was 2018 France vs Belgium when France were defending a 1-0 lead. They always looked dangerous on the break but were not trying to attack.... could England do that, being 1-0 up, defend but look dangerous
