Websites often have fatal issues that simply cannot be fixed when built by a web designer in Lafayette.
Slow page loading times and compatibility issues are the top issues we run into.

This is a question we are asked by our clients and for some businesses a build-it-yourself website is the right move. For others it is most definitely not. Free website builders are made available and often have free hosting as well. These builders typically make their money by putting ads on your website. Generally it is easy for someone without technical knowledge to modify the pre-built templates by adding photos and changing some colors. These pre-built templates work on mobile devices as well. If SEO is important to you and you expect to show up on the first page of google and attract new leads, having full control over your site is a must. Page load speed is becoming a more and more significant part of SEO. Choosing what elements are on your page, and how they are loaded has a direct effect your page speed.
Do-it-yourself website builders do not give you the control you need. Only a custom built website by a professional web developer can achieve the right results. If you don't want ads on your website then you are typically committed to a higher monthly payment. If you stop paying the monthly fee your website will disappear. You are tied to the provider you choose and cannot take your website anywhere else. Custom built solutions do not allow you to own your site. You have the freedom to choose your web development company and move to any hosting company you like.
It takes longer than people generally realize to build a website. There is planning, preparation and execution. The quickest build is a landing page for PPC AD Campaigns, even the simplest of landing pages still takes time.

The important take away is to set aside a realistic amount of time for the completion of your project.
