Anyone in the business world knows that when someone asks, “What’s your website address?”
you better have a URL to give them. They don’t want to hear “I don’t have one yet”
or “I’m working on it”. Having an established, professional looking website, always
scores credibility points for the business owner.
Of utmost importance though...it
is far better to not have a website than to have a nonprofessional, cheesy looking
site. You will do much more damage to your business by portraying your company in
a less than top-notch light.
If you don’t have the knowledge, skills or abilities
to produce an outstanding design yourself then hire a professional web designer.
Web designers aren’t cheap, but that’s no reason to cut corners. Rework your budget
or possibly try to barter for all or part of the work to build your website.
You
can save yourself time and money if you have your website copy written. Provide your
web designer with the text and the layout of how you want it to look. Offer color
schemes. Send links to other sites that you admire. Of course, you never want to
copy someone else’s site, but by giving your designer an idea for the theme you’d
like to have, the process will go much more quickly.
The more work you can you do
up front yourself, the easier it will be on your pocket book. Many designers work
by the hour. If you want to have lots of links in your website, spell that out clearly.
Ask your designer if you should submit your text and ideas in a Word document or
if they would prefer it some other way. And make sure to forward any photos you want
to use to your web designer. Web designers are not mind readers. Most will do as
many edits as you like, however you will be charged for each edit.
There are many
"quick and easy" web design companies out there, advertising that you can have your
website up in an hour. And there are many canned templates that you can use which
are very user friendly. But, keep in-mind that most of these tools are for beginners.
They will not provide a professional looking site. If it’s your business, the one
you’re trying to make profitable, image is everything. Don’t try to cut corners in
this area.
