Budget Web Design

Small Business Websites on a Tight Budget

Every small business owner wants to make every penny count. That’s why my affordable small business web design packages offer the most cost-effective options for self-funded entre­preneurs. Still, those starting with fewer pennies (as I did — I get it!) face extra risks. So my budget web design solu­tions help to mit­igate those risks.

The Risks of Cheap Web Design

Web design is a tax-deductible investment, not a cost. Sound invest­ments pay for them­selves, and profits tend to be pro­por­tional to the investment. However, you do need to invest enough to get the job done — and in business, that job is com­peting. As a result, treating invest­ments like costs kills businesses.

The reality is that cheap web designers often dis­appear and DIY sites rarely compete well with pro­fes­sional work. You can’t even test a business idea properly with a sub-standard site. So the less you invest in web design, the more you risk — espe­cially with designers with less than a few years exper­ience of running a business. It takes a lot more to make an online business work than any web design course can teach.

Still, having spe­cialised in helping small busi­nesses since 2005, I realise budgets some­times limit the best inten­tions — and finance isn’t always an option. That’s why I’ve developed ways to provide the exper­i­enced help you need, even on a tight budget.

Safer Cheap Web Design Solutions

Whilst my static web­sites offer another low-cost option, without a built-in editing system, they aren’t very flexible. On the other hand, my affordable packages are extremely flexible and cost-effective — but they take more work to set up than some small startups can stretch to. So this budget web design package uses pro­pri­etary systems to offer unlimited editable pages at a lower price point.
