About Designs by Linda

You've come to the...
No! I'm not going to do it! I'm not going to sit here and preach that I'm the designer for you. You're here so you can find out what my prices are and how much you can get for your money. Right? Okay. Let's get down to the nitty-gritty.

First you have to ask yourself 3 questions and answer them (to yourself) so that, in the end, you're going to be satisfied that you've made the right choice.

1.) What will set your business or home site apart from the millions of others that are currently on the Internet?

Good question. By this time you've surfed the net and checked out what others are doing. You pretty much have an idea of what catches your eye. You know what sites are coming up in the "top 20" of the search engines. If you don't, then you should spend some time doing just that so you know where you want to head with your own site. Keep your eye on the "competition".

2.) What is the benefit of having a site on the internet as compared to distributing the traditional brochure?

Ouch. You just paid the printer megabucks for that nice brochure. You sent it out to prospective clients after addressing all of them (more money for the labels and printing) and kissed them goodbye at the Post Office along with your check for postage. After all of that, you may get a 2% response from your mailing. If you were to take the identical information from that brochure and put it on the internet, for a fraction of the cost you get global exposure for no additional cost. All you have to do is follow up on the email responses you receive directly from your site.

3.) Why should you hire someone else to design your site when there are free programs with an easy WYSIWYG user interface and tons of free graphics online to use?

Okay. You work 8AM to 5PM Monday through Friday at your day job. Eat dinner, and finally get to sit in front of the computer at 7PM. You downloaded that freeware HTML editor. You downloaded the graphic creator. You downloaded the program to upload your site to your server. Two months later you're no further than you were when you downloaded the programs to create your own site. Let's do some simple math. At your day job, you earn $12/hour. You now work 3 hours per night (x5), 5 hours per weekend day (x2) for 8 weeks trying to create a quality site. The math? Technically you just spent $2,400 for a "do-it-yourself" web site.
