Something To Think About

- Cents and Sensibility

Are you willing to lose money making a business website? Compare the time you spend learning and making your site with the time you could spend working on your own business. For example you may be earning $40 per hour as a mechanic and you realize it is going to take you upwards of 50 hours to learn and apply your web development skills.

That is going to cost you $40 x 50 hours = $2000 just to learn and build your site. The other option is you could work 6 hours and pay someone to build your website. In fact we offer a 5 page package which would leave you with $15 left over to shout your favorite loved one a drink.
