These days, setting up your own small business is as easy as baking a pie. You’ve got free email services like gmail. You’ve got inexpensive Internet fax services like GoFaxer. And you’ve hired a service to manage your incoming phone calls.
But what about a website? Many new businesses don’t really need a website for generating sales. But it’s become an industry standard to have a website. If you don’t have one it can look really unprofessional and small time.
But paying a web designer to create a website that has no other function than to suggest that you’re open for business is huge pain and in many cases unnecessary. A recent article at BusinessWeek.com by Larry Armstrong says:
He says that you can create the site using pre-made templates in about an hour. It also tells you how many visitors you get. It also gives you a domain name. The whole could cost you about $15 a year. that’s a much better price than hiring an expensive web designer.
