This is a question that many small businesses may find themselves asking. Why not just get a web page designed quickly? Someone has a friend who dabbles in web design, so why not just let this person design my site?

There are so many factors to take into consideration, and many good reasons to hire a professional web designer. There’s much more today to designing websites than simply stringing together a few tables, inserting images, and setting a background color. There are many people who mean well, but you want more for your business than a simple design. You want a page that will load in any browser – and not break. You want professional layout.
You want a unique web design that will show up in the search engines. Search Engine Optimization is an involved and careful process. Brick and mortar businesses are falling to web-based businesses. Just this week, executives for Tower Records announced that they are filing for bankruptcy. The company has fallen to online stores like Musicmatch, and even Amazon.com.

You don’t want this to happen to your business. You want a strong foothold online so your business can grow.

Most importantly, you want it done right the first time. You don’t want a simple template as the basis of your site, only to see the same design turn up on several other sites. You don’t want to go back to your site in a month, only to learn that Macintosh users are passing your site by because it falls apart on Safari.

You get professional web design at Shire Enterprises, with packages starting at just $299.
