Why can’t I build my own site?
Why can’t I cut my own hair? Sure I can. We can pretty much do a lot of things ourselves. The points to consider are the time and the professional skill set involved. If you have both sure go for it.
It may seem like you are saving money by doing your own logo, business card, or website, however, the reality is that you are making a VERY costly mistake that can probably make your business more likely to fail. By having marketing materials that looks unprofessional and poorly designed you will create a sub par impression in the minds of new prospects.
When you are in the building and growing phase of your business, you need everything you do to accelerate your success.
How much does a professionally designed website cost with DotSign?
DotSign offers website at a very competitive price, the best for the value delivered. The pricing for a website depends on the scope of the project. DotSign had worked on projects ranging form $1800 to $22000+.
There are lots of cheaper options for very small businesses; however, these options seldom increase sales or assist on streamlining businesses' processes. Ad agencies often charge 100k or more for rather simple sites, and many medium and large companies spend millions on their web presence each year.
SEO, marketing and e-commerce are usually factors that need to be considered as well.
I saw a cheaper deal for website design, should I take it?
Sure you can!! But here are some facts
A mistake that entrepreneurs and business owners make is trying to create their own marketing materials or to have an amateur develop it. By trying to create your marketing materials cheaply, you end up looking…well…cheap. Which directly relates to professionalism, credibility etc

What is Flash?
