Contextualize Personal Website

Introduction

I believe you are not new to the internet. You may use Google to search for something on the internet. You may use social media to post something or read people's posts.

But the web originally was not about having lots of followers on social media, or trying to get sponsors, or even getting a high number of likes. The web is a place where everyone can share knowledge. It is a place where people around the world can connect without having to meet each other.

Getting money is not the main purpose of the existence of the website. The main purpose is to make human knowledge accessible to everyone.

A personal website can be a place for you on the internet. You can express yourself. You can write about anything. Include images, videos, or music on your website. Create a profile. Your profile does not have to follow the same layout as everyone else's. You are free to show your profile the way you wish. No images? Sure. Only text with a short video introduction? No problem. You have way more freedom than using social media platforms.

A personal website shows anything about you that can bring benefit to others.
