Title: Should I Make My Own Web Site?
Author: Fred Ost
Article:
With the growing popularity and automation of wyswig (what you
see is what you get) web site design software titles, a growing
number of small business and individuals are creating their own
web sites. Should you make your own web site? One school of
thought is that you can save yourself some cash by making your
own web site, and saving some cash is always a good thing. The
other school of thought is that in order to make a top quality
product equal to what you provide your customers with on a daily
basis you are going to have to invest some money in some quality
software. </p>
You would need to purchase a web site design program like
Macromedia's Dreamweaver and if you plan on embellishing your
web site with some of your digital photography you will need
some photo editing software like Adobe Photoshop or Macromedia's
Fireworks. Even if you take fantastic pictures you will still
need to optimize them for fast loading in your customers web
browser. An unedited five megapixel photo takes up about a 19x19
inch screen and if you put two of those puppies on a web page
and your customer does not have broadband internet access they
will be nodding off before your page is viewable. And that
equals bye bye visitor.</p>
That bring us to learning about search engines which is a
sceince unto itself. Am I using the right keywords? What are my
best keywords? Is my keyword density right? The questions are
almost limitless, definitely one of the toughest parts of the
job.</p>
There are endless tutorials on web site design available online
as well as the tutorials that come with most software packages,
so the tools to learn to make good web sites and edit photos are
there for you as well. But wouldn't you rather be spending your
time learning about the industry you have devoted your life to
and making certain every customer that leaves your establishment
leaves with a smile? My answer is you bet I would. </p>
I could easily run down to my kitchen every morning and get out
my flour and eggs and bake myself a loaf of bread so I can have
some toast, but since the bakery does a great job and gives me
quality bread at affordable prices, the baker wins my breakfast
order. I've got customers to please!</p>
