Business websites

Should I do it myself?

Choosing to develop a company website in-house is a big commitment. Considerations before committing yourself to this include:

• Staff - do you have adequately trained staff with the technical knowledge and design flair to set up a website?
• Technology - have you budgeted for the computer hardware and software that will be required to build and maintain your website?

Maintenance - have you considered the ongoing costs of keeping your website up to date? This will include a member of staff required to deal with user enquiries and feedback, upload new information and remove old material, deal with any technical difficulties and check that hyperlinks work correctly.
