Do It Yourself: Works for Ikea, but Your Website?

Of all the headaches that entrepreneurs face when starting or growing a business, building a website is all too often a 3 Tylenol one. The complaints are familiar: business owners have a hard time describing what they want the final product to convey and the inability of designers to read their minds; requesting content, modifying product info, or uploading new photos can take multiple phone calls; business owners feel frustrated by the endless charges for what seems to them to be a couple minutes work, while the designers feel equally irritated that their time/work is under-appreciated.

But is a website as a DYI project? That should send shivers down the spine of any business owner who already is wearing too many hats in the course of his/her day; well it doesn’t have to. Sometimes a smart, simple, well built, and manically supported DYI provider is a wise solution that allows any business owner control over their message, their brand, and their budget without having to write any code, understand HTML, or a sit through a tutorial.

If you can click and point you can build, maintain, and make changes when and how you want to your website.

And you own it.
