You have 1) not have its own domain.

If you knew you were the primo networking event of the year, you would bring business cards printed with your neighbors phone number? Heck no!

So why should you waste your time and energy to build a reputable website design company, under a different domain? Somewhere on the road you will eventually find its own URL, so you start your business how you want to end it.

It costs only $ 8 .95 register your ownDomain with GoDaddy.com for a year. Reliable hosting for less than $ 20 a month to have.

I happily pay $ 18.95 per month for my service, and they include all types of clean benefits. That's only $ 5 per week, less than a dollar a day. If your biz is not worth a $ 1 per day investments, then you should seek an alternative type of work.

2) They provide no indication of its price class.

Even if you do not want to not give up the entire yard, always give your websitesAttending any indication of what your prices are like. In this way, whether in accordance with your technical skills, what they want, they have an idea of whether they provide their services or not.

The best way to do this is simply a price range on the "Request to give your tender '. Here's a brief blurb that you can use:

"Every site we have to design a unique elements that are specifically relevant to the company. Therefore we have set the prices. But, to list just a fewClaim that our prices for the complete website design mainly from $ 250 - $ 10,000, depending on the complexity of the job.

If you want an accurate estimate for your web site, please fill out the form below. "

3) You get cool techie terms in order to motivate the view.

Let's say I am relatively new to the Net, and I'm looking for a decent web site designer. Somehow, I stumble over to your little home on the web. Your website looks good and it loads quickly.

Then I have, and then click on the linkDescribing your services and you have something like this:

To build "We use Java, Javascript, CGI-BIN and Perl programming, Cold Fusion, DHTML, and to your website."

Duh! I can not figure out how to configure my e-mail filter, and now you gave me a cold track of your technical skills. Suppose that I am not a technophobe, you're still bombarding me with too much techno-babble!

A better way to handle this situation is to say to me, "Why," I need all thisrazmatazz that you offer. Give me advantages, why Java is a good thing for my website, and not in my coffee cup. Tell me the "how" goes DHTML for my life easier. Make believe that I am a customer who has more than enough money available, but needs to keep a small hand in order to understand all the technical terms.
