Hiya,

At the moment i just have one of the free websites which you design yourself and don't have to pay for. If you go onto www.freewebs.com and have a look at there and you just register and then create i'm using that at the moment to get some customers and i have also registered on yell.com just for free advertising.

microsoft small business is fantastic! Free hosting, no pesky untidy adverts, and free domain names so you dont need a poster sized business card to advertise your website on!!!

My cousin is in the process of doing mine. He is a computer programmer and knows everything about computers. As he is family, he is not charging me so bonus (although i did give his wife a free hair cut and colour).
Sometimes it's not what you know
I need someone in my family to marry a solicitor now, oh and an accountant oh and ..........................

Ruth Mills from this site is making mine as we speak,
it is coming along nicely and very competitively priced considering all the hard work that she puts into building them,
quite a few happy geeks have a website that Ruth has built, hth :hug:

step one look out for people who say " they know everything about computers " a good website has nothing to do with computer experts. it has to do with marketing, layout, navigation, feel, clarity, purpose, compatibility, and on top of all that , what do you want your site to do ? anyone can get you or you can build your own site but thats the easy part !

and dont forget, is it search engine friendly , will google be happy to index it ? theres way more to a website than most people realise.

most folks have know idea what " search engine compatibility " is and thats what its all about ( after ) you have your site created ! as i say making a site is a breez and can be cheap but will it do what you want it to do, afterall, you could have the best looking salon in the world but its no good unless it has a door to get in or a telephone number to call it !

I paid about 200 quid for a website after being approached by a company. I was really disappointed with it and regard it as a lesson learned. Am now having a proper one made by salon doctor. Will post it on here when its done.

When my hubby was setting up his own business (bathrooms) last year he looked at a few website designers and they wanted extortionate amounts of money, he came accross a guy on eBay and it cost £150 its fanatastic, since we had it done 5 other business friends have had thiers done also.

I'm not knocking your site, it looks very professional in appearance which is ideal once your visitors (potential clients) have arrived, ie, IF they already know where your site is located because you've already told them the address, or becasue they've seen the address written on your leaflets, flyers, etc. Why do I say this? Your site uses a FRAMES setup, and most web experts will tell you that this is a very unsatisfactory arrangement as FRAMED websites are not search engine friendly. Simply put, this means that your site is unlikely to be found by the search engines and consequently, highly unlikely to appear in any search results. To take this a step further, if someone enters a search phrase for "new bathroom installations in Sheffield", your site as it is right now wont be appearing in those search results.

If you wish to confirm this for yourself, simple enter your web addy into any search engine simulator.

Here's one to try : Search Engine Spider Simulator

For anyone else considering a new site (regardless of the cost), establish right at the outset if your designer intends to use Frames, if he does and refuses to give you any alternative, get a different guy.
