Why don't I just design my web site myself?

In business it is always a good idea to "Outsource" what you can.

Tom Peters, in his book, "In Search of Excellence," put it best when he said that we should all stick to the knitting. That is, we should do what we all do best, and let others do for us what it is that they do best.

Yes, you could learn a whole new career and most likely get a very nice web site up and running after a long period of time learning the basics - but how will that help your business? Best bet is to leave this to the professionals and don't let your Internet presence represent your company with a poor web site design.

When web sites are designed by a high school kid down the block or a cousin's friend of a friend - you may get a good deal upfront but the look of the site will not represent you well nor will it be very helpful when you go to get some changes made and you cannot locate them to do the work.
