Hey CodeNewbie community! 👋
I’m excited to share my journey of building MerijaneSole.com, a niche site dedicated to Mary Jane shoes—yes, those timeless, vintage-meets-modern fashion icons.
As someone with minimal coding knowledge, I wanted to create a clean, SEO-optimized site to serve a specific audience: people passionate about Mary Jane shoes. From classic schoolgirl looks to trendy streetwear, these shoes deserved their own spotlight.
🚀 My Tech Stack (Beginner-Friendly)
WordPress + Elementor: Easy drag-and-drop builder, perfect for no-coders.
Yoast SEO: Helped me structure my content and meta tags.
WooCommerce (optional): Even though I use affiliate links, it’s good for managing products.
Cloudflare + LiteSpeed: For speed and CDN.
Google Search Console & Analytics: To monitor traffic and fix crawl errors.
💡 Key Learnings
Niche wins: Focusing only on Mary Jane shoes helped me build a community and authority fast.
Content is king: I wrote blog posts like "Where to Buy Mary Jane Shoes" with genuine recommendations and internal/external links.
SEO is essential: Using easy tools, I learned to optimize keywords, structure headers, and build backlinks (like this one!).
Community matters: Whether it’s tech or fashion—serving real users with helpful info builds lasting traffic.
