If you are serious about creating a web presence for yourself and your work, consider a professionally designed website.
Advantages of professionally designed websites
- Your site will be custom designed by a team who does it for a living. They will take your needs, desires and preferences into consideration. Your site won't be like any other, it will be a reflection of you and your work.
- Your site will be more attractive and better designed than a free site would, conveying a positive impression.
- You won't spend hours trying to figure out how to do it yourself, freeing you to concentrate on what you do best (writing, performing, creating your art, or running your business).
- There's no advertising!
- You will have your own domain name, which will be easy to remember and specific only to you. And, your web address (and email address) will be unaffected should you change ISPs or webhosts. Your site is very portable and your web designer can move it to another webhost without any interruption, if you should ever decide to do so.
- You can get as much storage space for your site as necessary; you need not ever run out of room for your pages, and other files.
- You will have a Project Manager who can answer your questions and address your needs.
- Your website will be designed to be friendly to your visitors and the search engines, too.
- Your web designer can promote your website so it will be well ranked and easily findable on Google & other search engines.
- Your web designer can update the website whenever you'd like, so you don't need to bother with it. Alternatively, it can be designed so you can update it yourself. It's your choice.
- You'll have your own email address: you@yourdomain.com.
- Your webhost will provide detailed site statistics, showing how many people visited, how they found your website & what they looked at.
- A professionally designed website will give you added credibility and will cast you & your work in a much more flattering, and professional light. This is crucial for a business. It shows you take your work seriously and that you want to convey a professional image.
The only real disadvantage for a custom designed website, is that it's not free. (But it can be very affordable!)
