In a world where DIY websites are becoming more and more prevalent and more and more business are turning to these websites, it’s important to understand that just because you CAN do it yourself doesn’t mean you should. In this podcast, the guys take a look at what all goes into a professional website and what the cost should be.

This podcast is helpful for the business owner who is struggling with the idea of tackling their new businesses website on their own in order to save a few dollars. It’s also helpful for the website designer to have the confidence to stand behind the prices they have set.

By the end of this podcast, we hope that you understand what all goes into a website. If you’re that business owner, we hope that you leave with a clear understanding that sometimes DIY doesn’t mean you get the best results you want. If you’re that designer struggling with how to price out your services or terrified to price your websites at what you deserve, we hope you leave with the confidence you need to get out there and start earning what you’re worth.

Think of your website as an employee rather than a tool. It’s working for you 365 days a year or as Zack said, “365 days a week.” Haha.

Jason breaks down the math. Your website is working 24 hours a day/ 7 days a week, 365 days a year. That’s 8,760 hours a year that your website is working for your company. WOW!
