What’s the #1 networking tool you can have in your arsenal as a student? I’ll tell you this right now: it isn’t your resume.

Resumes are boring. Career experts tell you to make your resume a one-page, size 11 Time New Roman document printed with black ink with no pictures. Seriously? How are you supposed to represent – and differentiate – yourself with that?

Plus, your resume becomes static and outdated the moment you hand it to someone. You can’t update resumes you’ve already given out – you have to make new copies.

That’s why you need a personal website. This guide will teach you how to build one – even if you have no experience.
