You’re Not Late, You’re Just Beginning
Clear, step-by-step support for midlife beginners starting their online journey.
Hello, I’m Jackie
I run Get Online Step by Step, a calm, practical blog for beginners who want to build something online—without tech stress or digital overwhelm.

If you’ve ever felt like the digital world left you behind—this space is for you.
“This is the first time I’ve read something about websites that actually makes sense. I feel like maybe… I can do this.”
