Contest Closed: Congrats Katie! The first winner never responded so I randomly selected again and YOU WIN! I will be contacting you for your information. Thanks everyone for entering.
As a “thank you” for your support this year, I am running a contest that will give you the chance to win one of the most valuable online products I own — The StudioPress Pro Plus All Theme Package.
This is a current value of $399.95 and savings of over $1,000 if you were to buy each theme individually.
That means you will get access to every single premium StudioPress WordPress theme (60+), all updates and even themes that are released at a later time.
I own this product and have gotten so much value from it. Not only do I use it for client sites, but here’s the real value of the package in my opinion…
The theme you are looking at now on this blog (Daily Dish Pro) was not available when I purchased the All-Theme package last year.
But when they released this theme earlier this year, I gained immediate access to it as an All-Theme Package owner. Yes, that means you will be able to download all future themes too! (Does not include 3rd-party themes not created by StudioPress.)
When you login to your StudioPress account and access the Downloads page, you will see a page similar to the one below that gives you instant access to all themes.
So many of you have purchased the StudioPress themes from my affiliate link in the last three years. The least I can do is give something back. 🙂

Hi Lisa,
Thanks for sponsoring this giveaway yourself!
I’m new to blogging and am trying out free blogs to see which ones are easier to work with and to gain practice. So far I have tried Wix, and I am now trying WordPress. My goal for 2015 is to choose a blogging platform and to build my content up to 25 posts with links, pictures, and videos on how-to home improvement/maintenance projects that a woman can do herself with no outside help.
Thanks for this opportunity!

Embarrassingly, I have never had a website. My position has always been to support others, thus I guess never thought having my own website was important because there was never the need as I supported others.
But I have committed myself to developing a Business this 2015. The thought of a Blog has inspired me to want to write and share my Thoughts, Experiences, Dreams, Desires and be of Help to those who are in need of SUPPORT.
I thank you for this Opportunity. Blessings for a great Growth for you in 2015!!
My goal for a website for 2015 is to finally get my act together and do it applying all the tips you have provided.
I now have great motivation as I will no longer have an income and am to old to work.
Can’t wait to get started. Have all my plans in my head and have selected a niche market.
Thanks for your help in making this goal achievable

Hello Lisa,
I have learned a lot through 2014, because i was focusing on three websites, but i decided to focus only at one website and a niche
1- Creating great content every two days.
2- Building a Huge Facebook Page.
3- Focusing more on Email Markeing.
4- Publishing a book about the niche i’m currently working on.
that all my plan for 2015, but who knows maybe i add some other necessary steps in order to achieve more .
Thanks.
My goals for 2015:
1) Get my website started.
2) Build traffic. If I get around 1,000 unique visitors a day, by the end of 2015, I’d be happy.
I don’t plan on making a lot of money in 2015. It’s about getting started, right.
Thanks Lisa! Have a great new year.
Hi Lisa.
I am totally new to web evelopment. I have looked at many instructors online and you are the one I trust the most to learn the skills I need to develop websites and build a business. Few are willing to share enough to truly make a difference.
We need ALL the knowledge, not just a few pieces. This will help me to use good tools from the start, as you teach us to do.
Thank you.
Hi Lisa!
Thank you for all that you do! I ALWAYS refer you to others, to get them started in the world of website building.
My goals in 2015:
1) Learn coding and building an income-producing website selling my chocolate candies.
Yes! It will happen!
May all of your dreams come true, too!
Peace & blessings!
Happy New Year

4 the most important give everyone an advance happy new year
Hi Lisa!
You Rock! This giveaway is an awesome opportunity for me to implement my plans for World Domination:
1. My website is currently cobbled together with MySimon Web Tables, a couple of plugins that manage the display of categories and posts, and a lot of TLC (Tiny Little Code snippets.) StudioPress would simplify that whole process.
2. Thus freed from the chains of hard-coded web design, I will be able to write more stuff.
3. The SEO-friendly themes will attract random readers from all arcs of the globe (folks, there are no corners in a globe!)
4. Using my stealth techniques gleaned from 2CreateAWebsite, I will ethically bribe, cajole and twist the virtual arms of visitors.
5. Mwhaahahahaha – or something like that.
Happy New Year! (Y’all better hope I don’t win this thang.)
Cheers,
Mitch
Hey Lisa,
My goal is to simply get off my backside and take action and build a website.
My goals for 2015 are to increase marketing efforts but retain my goal of making more affordable sites that clients can maintain if they choose. I also hope to increase my maintenance contract sales.
Thanks for giving us this opportunity, Lisa!
This year i have been the fox that´s chasing too many rabbits…:-)…so my main goal for 2015 ist to be more focused and to work daily on my ONE blog. Hopefully implementing some of the stuff i´ve learned THIS year and avoiding mistakes.
Wishing you a wonderful time in 2015 too, Lisa,
greetings from germany,
Janine
Wow! What a great prize!
My goals for this year are to:

Thank you lisa for this opportunity. Has a webmaster that been around for more then 10 year my 2015 goals are

2. Made my articles more accessible so my ads will show up more to the public
3. Improve the navigation

i have been following your blog from 2012 ,thanks for the tips but still now not migrated to wordpress platform and looking soon to migrate to wordpress from the next year.
wishing a wonderful year ahead 🙂
Wow Lisa! What a great idea!!!
My goal for 2015 is to jump back into the fray by developing a successful web site centered around a hobby that has been my passion for years, but never realized there was so much interest in it until the past few months. I figure it’s a good way to make some income in my retirement years. Additionally, I would like to use all the great things I’ve learned via Lisa’s 2createawebsite since they provide good old common horse sense way of developing a successful site. I’ve learned it take rocket science to have a successful site.
Woops….I meant to say it “Doesn’t take Rocket Science to have a successful site”.
My goal for this year is to increase the amount (and quality) of content that I post on my blog. I will do this by:
1. Creating a publishing calendar to plan and track my posts.
2. Implementing a podcast to increase the variety of content that I offer my readers.
3. Resuming my YouTube videos in order to provide video content.
I would like to create an authentic community and provide more value to my readers. Hopefully, 2015 will be a successful blogging year! Thank you for the contest.
Hi Lisa,
My website related goal for year 2015 is
“To create at least three websites which generate passive income of at least $50/site per day”
Happy New Year 2015 (in advance 😉
What a generous prize! Thanks so much for the opportunity!
I think I may need to move my hosting to something more robust this year as I’m getting a lot more traffic now and it often seems to go down during traffic surges.
I also want to find some more sources of income. I do ok with adsense but I don’t want to depend on that so I would like to do some ebooks or short reports.
My goal for 2015 is to start my own blog. I know that there is so much to do, but the first step will be to BEGIN. 2014 was a huge year of change for me – I got married – plus have a full time job which included the development of a new department. 2015 is the year to start on following through on my other dreams.
It is my plan to move to a new state within a couple of years and much of my blog will focus on the preparations and excitement for moving which will include a simpler lifestyle as compared to the busyness of my current lifestyle. Plus, there is so much more I’d like to share and see if others are interested in. I have done product reviews for other sites in the past and really enjoyed doing them. There is something so fun about giving a reader a prize!
2015 is going to be a great year and I’d love to begin it my winning this prize that will really help me with my blogging plans. Thank you for the opportunity!
Thank you lisa for this wonderful opportunity. has a beginner to website creation and blogging my 2015 goals are as follow
1. Help Nigerian student to write better
2. write my first free e book
3. Help Nigerian student to win Scholarship
4. make my first money with my website
Hi Lisa!
Thank you so much for all the great stuff you put out!
My goal is to get 100 million signatures for my petition on http://www.stopcowkilling.com!
Lisa, this is so great of you! I am a huge fan of yours.
Goals for 2015… take the 3 blogs I publish (2 of mine, one as a volunteer effort for our local historical society) from wordpress.com to wordpress.org… I just have to screw up my courage to do so! I’m sure all 3 sites would benefit from the .org pluses. Heck, I might even go hog-wild and revamp my mother-ship site, TGtbT.com, into a WP.org like my mentor’s been urging me to do!
Hi Lisa! I am a big fan since meeting you through SBI.
My goals for my WordPress site is to get it running more smoothly
(It keeps using up resources and crashes and I can’t figure out what the issue is. My hosting co. says it is plugin conflicts.)
I also want to expand it to other topics and also create a new site that runs more on automatic. I would love to be making more from adsense again like I did in about 2009/2012
I am also going to join a local WordPress community to get more help with running WP.
Thanks for this opportunity!
Hello there Lisa, thank you very much for this wonderful end of year giveaway. It’s an awesome way to to also start the new year.
As for me and my blog, I haven’t been online much and my Alexa rank is now back up because of being busy with other activities.
But for this coming year I plan to make it one of the best blogging year for myself and whoever I can help along the way.
What I plan to do is to post more often and rally around other bloggers so that I can create a circle or should I say expand my circle of bloggers. I also want to start guest blogging again and to comment more often as well.
Now that it is a new year it is time for me to do some new things on my blog like creating YouTube videos and get my face out there.
I also hope to learn some new things from you as well, Lisa.
Thank you very much and all the best for the new year!
Hi Lisa,
The truth of the matter is that for 2015 I plan to focus on becoming a web developer.
I made that decision after thoroughly going through you Photoshop training I purchased on Udemy.
I absolutely fell in love with Photoshop and it’s all due to your simplified traning.
Also, I will be working hard to develop a great authority site.
Thanks…you’re a great teacher.
