Does anyone read 'Start Your Business' - I picked up the June magazine at the Ideal Business Show, and it was full of useful information, including an article by Elizabeth Clark, the Flirt Guru - ever heard of her? I hadn't, but I may remember her, particularly for her Guide to Web Design, and she suggests that before you start you should have a clear idea of the purpose of your project, and she gave an example of what you should look for here.

Whilst we think that iChameleon is a good agency, we can also help you with your design, if you so require.

Elizabeth Clarke makes the point that for a modest site you shouldn't expect any change out of a grand (£1000), and that did not include hosting or domain, and an ecommerce site can cost from £675 on top. Of course there are cheaper designers out there, but will you get the desired effect and optimisation she argues?

I think that you should compare a web site to an advertisement that you put in a newspaper. The paper has a short life, but is seen by a wide audience and some people who do not even look in a computer. You really need to know what audience you want your feature to attract. A web site on the otherhand has a much longer life, can be edited and optimisation can leave it in the public's eyes longer. An advertisement in a newspaper will depend on size, and column inches, and price is a factor. You can obtain a lineage ad for around £30, and depending on the magazine/newspaper larger block adverts can be £500 - £5000 and higher. A website on the otherhand is a cheaper way to advertise and can be more effective.

Optimisation is on keywords and coding and on the Ecademy businesses network, Derek Sorensen rescues small businesses from broken websites. Derek's key area of strength lies in his years of programming and coding expertise. Derek is one of a growing number of experts, and truly your choice should be in the right web design company to attend to your requirements - so always verify how long they will guarantee your work for, and if they have a maintenance package.
