DIY Website Design & Management: We Show You How!
Firstly we need to discuss why it is you should have the capability of managing your own website or creating your own website:
1. It’s easy
2. It saves you a tonne of cash
3. It’s a skill you require to be a savvy business manager in today’s business world.
Most graphic designers would have you believe that website design and management is complex and technical. It used to be but now we all have the ability to learn and understand basic programs to be able to design and manage your own site.
Graphic designers charge exorbitant amounts because they have fooled you into believing that what they are accomplishing is high tech. Most people buy into their techno talk and pay up to $100 per hour for unnecessary and complex design work. If you are interested in taking the DIY approach and you can operate something as simple as Microsoft Word, you can save oodles of cash and have complete control over your online business beginning right now.
Apart from the cost effectiveness of DIY Web Management, to ensure you are competitive online and in the world of modern business, you MUST have a full understanding of this important side to your business. If you can’t manage your site, you should at least understand online business enough to know if you are getting a bang for your buck. Besides, having control of your site will also mean that you will take more of an advantage of many of the free online marketing principles that are available to you. Those who outsource their site management also tend to outsource (if they do at all) their web marketing and this can become hideously expensive.
FACT: If our business is NOT competing online with your top competitors right now you will be out of the game within the next 3 years.
You will not survive if your website is not being found in the search engines, you will not survive if you are not being found online. Make it easy on your business for the future and take the reigns over the online side of your business right now.

What if you want to manage your own website?
If you already have a site and you can’t manage it then hassle your designer to have your site working with a program like Wordpress. This is not always possible and not always the easiest way to manage your site but it’s worth asking. Again with a program like Wordpress you will have to learn how to manage it but it’s well worth it for the cash you will save.
Ask your designer today how your site can become accessible to you. Ask them to explain it clearly in plain English!
Otherwise consider re-designing your site with an inexpensive builder like buildmysite.
Remember it’s extremely important that you have control over your online business as from right now. Any business that doesn’t have a complete understanding of the online world of business will simply be left behind.
Our website has lots of free info to help you get started and our Ebooks will walk you through the process.
