PART ONE OF A THREE PART SERIES
It is easy to understand why building your own DIY website can be tempting. Professional web development isn’t cheap.
Independent business people and entrepreneurs are ingenious folk. The nature of the business means we do it all. And what can be handled in-house, we do in-house. I mean, what’s the difference?
If you can do it yourself, why not, right?
Sorry. Not true. If you are serious about your website, DIY is rarely the way to go.
There are some things you can do on your own: bandage a paper cut, pay a ticket, file a quarterly tax return. But there are bigger projects that you just wouldn’t take on. There are things that are just too important to risk by trying to save a couple of bucks. You wouldn’t DIY surgery. You wouldn’t DIY criminal defense. If you’re serious about your business, we do not recommend a DIY website either.
At Trevellyan.biz, we build websites our clients can update and maintain themselves, if they wish. We handle the larger, more complicated tasks such as building the structure and keeping the site safe. This leaves our clients with more time to spend doing what they do best.
Unlike the Ronco Rotisserie Oven, websites are not “set it and forget it” endeavors. Technologies, expectations and design trends change over time. When you work with us, we let you know when new requirements are introduced to the industry so you can choose how best to adapt.
Why a DIY website might not be the best choice for you
Concentrate on the things you do best. Build your business, nurture your customers and your staff, focus on the things you love to do and that you can have the biggest impact on. Leave website development to the professionals and your money will be better spent, your business improved and your life easier.
