Nice video. Maybe a bit too long. It would be better to make a couple of shorter videos, each focusing on a specific topic. Anyway, thank you for the insights! Cheers!

@mlwebco Thanks for responding. I will try a demo version of Perch to see if it will fit my needs. But I am also interested in getting started with Wordpress or Drupal, as they seem to be good systems to start using and learning, as they are big enough for most websites, and I might need to learn them in the future. Do you think the admin area is too complicated for clients on these bigger CMS systems? And you I eventually need to build an e-commerce site, wouldn't I need a bigger CMS? Thanks

What Makes Good Web Design?by christophermerrill20,763 views
Great videos. I admire and appreciate your willingness to teach your knowledge and experience!
I'm quite new to web design, but have done a few static websites and I can work with html,css and a bit of jquery. I want to learn to implement my designs to a CMS system and have looked at your tutorial on Wordpress. Can it be used for clients to update and upload content? What about portfolio sites, where the clients wants to upload a new image with a description etc.? What CMS would you recommend?

@MrHammerman84 Thanks for the kind words. For CMS, I personally say stay away from anything to extensive. Check out a simple CMS solution called Perch ... grabaperch[dot]com

@MrHammerman84 Perch is quite easy to setup and use. Give a test drive with their free-trial and you'll see. Yes, bigger CMS systems are hard to use, require a lot of time training your clients on them, they're clunky, etc. No need for that anymore. Stick with a simple CMS. Also, for e-commerce website, no need to hardly do any development work there. Mostly all e-commerce solutions come with CMS built in. Check out Shopify.com ;)

Dude, you are truly the man and I appreciate the time you take to share your knowledge with us. I always tell people that the best way to learn anything is to just do your research on Youtube and your page is a shining example of that.

Micheal, I enjoy your tuts very much! How do you find time to work at your full time job, do web consulting, run your ecommerce site and raise a family at the same time? Thank you!

@samueljh3 You're asking a very good question here. To answer, it's hard. Being a huge family guy, I can't lock myself in a room while my kids are up. They take pretty much 100% of my time. So I try to get as much work done after hours, when the kids are sleep. So majority of my work (even my vids) is done between 9pm and 2am most days. I don't take on too much that I can't handle in terms of client work. Also, working on building a biz with residual income. So I'm making $ while with family. :)
