CHEAP WEBSITES, DISCOUNTED WEBSITES….Warning – The real cost is lost opportunity for you
Cheap website, one day websites, free websites, DIY Websites, Free hosting included, cheap hosting included – this says everything you need to know about the company offering their product or service.
Would you buy a cheap, discounted or Free house without asking a few questions ? Or a Holiday ? What about a car ?
You get what you pay for, so take the trouble to write up a Specification of what you want, a detailed Brief, that adequately covers what you want to achieve, so that you can look for a product or service that will do as requested. Get a Wireframe or plan done by a web designer and then get a Design mockup done and then expect to get what you order – use an experienced web focused Graphic designer to do this.
If you go for the “Bargain” then do not be surprised when it bites you and you have to start again. Any spend may then have been wasted, but more importantly, you will have time and lost potential. Maybe a year of online sales or promotion, possibly looking bad for a year to any clients who dropped by.
Take your website seriously, just as seriously as having a high street store, make sure it is fit for purpose and a place that makes you proud.
Do NOT blame the Developer or call him a cheat, you make the call with your budget and you know what is cheap and what is good value – make the right call, for your own sake. Developers are not Graphic Designers or Business people either. Get an agency or a team on the job, an all in one web design agency preferably or working for you as a team on your project, a Graphic Designer, a Web Developer and a Digital Marketer. Make sure they have an office and staff, rather than being some agent or front for a virtual team in some far flung continent.
Rarely do we get a website enquiry from anyone who has not been “stung” or “bitten” – but oh what an education – sometimes an expensive one !
If you want to increase your sales by 100k this coming year, how much are you willing to invets to get it?
