Well... if you initiate a business and want clients is obvious that the best way is to have a very good and attractive website. Isn't it?

But please, just to be clear, I'm not trying to convince you or selling anything... I just want to advice you. You as well as many other business owners, are simply trying to promote or sell products or services. My mision as marketing and design expert is to advice you on what to do and what avoid in the advertising process. I hope this guide it help you enough :

1) Choose a good professional: Look his/her porfolio. Look for experience for over the price. Yes, price is important.. but low price is linked with support, results, quality.

2) Payments: It depends how much money do you want to invest.

Because remember, you need to be very conscious that this is an investment. In these times is very useful to find professionals that accept to split the payment in 2 or 3 times.

Your website will be your sells person.

This "guy" could show, teach, explain or even sell meanwhile you are sleeping. But take this page as a sample. To avoid mental calculations on each call I just added a "Project Estimator". Yeah, probably my competitors can take advantage an low their prices.
Do I care? Not at ALL!!! I know my job and I prefer honesty before anything.
