Should I Use A Web Developer Or A Web Builder?
The fact that you are reading this article suggests that you (hopefully) already understand that every business needs an awesome website or web presence. One of the very first impressions that potential customers get of your business is your website—it is the “face” of your business. If you go the cheap route and buy server space that runs at a snail’s pace, or you don’t have the presence of mind to build a site that is beautiful, uncomplicated, efficient, and loads quickly for your end-user, then what does that say about your company? What does that say about your brand? In a very competitive environment, your website can give you the edge to attract and retain your ideal customers. If you are ready to build your website there are two main paths you can take: (1) either hire a web developer and have them handle the task for you, or (2) use a website builder and do everything yourself. Obviously, both options have their advantages and disadvantages. The truth is that not every business needs a complex or expensive website.
