Have you seen the ads on TV that say you can make your own website? I am here to tell you that unless you are a professional with web building experience, don’t do it.
It is like someone’s dad trying his hand at HVAC, plumbing or electrical because he has a tool belt.
You would not play against David Beckham in a soccer game because you own a ball. The same thing is making a website because you have a computer. There are certain skills that you need in order to do web building. Have you ever tried code before? Do you even know how to access code? What about link building for your website? A lot more goes into a website than how it looks. How a website ranks on google is SEO and most people don’t have the skills to do this. Ignoring the technical side though, how the website looks is important. Unless you have the experience and a degree, a normal person doesn’t know what attracts the public eye. There is a certain amount of pictures the mind can handle. There are colors that attract attention and colors that repel. Placement of a company phone number is key. The amount of content and quality of content is also important. There should be more than one page on a website. No normal person has the skills to do drop down menus, multiple pages and moving graphics. When you need a website, don’t take it upon yourself. Just hire out web building services. It is not that much money too and you get a way better product.
