It’s really a shame seeing AEIOU.com<\/strong><\/a> pull out of the minisite business, simply because it appeared that the company – led by Rick Latona – had a streamlined process in place and many satisfied customers.<\/p>\n

The truth is, Rick’s statement that “there is no money in web design<\/em>” is incorrect. The domaining market with its small returns for PPC and non-development is not ripe yet to follow closely the high standards and expectations of web development for general, non-domainer clients; and that’s where the money really is.<\/p>\n

Therefore, there is no money in web design for domainers that aren’t willing to understand a few basic principles:<\/em><\/p>\n

1. You get what you pay for
\n2. Design requires time
\n3. Monetization is an extra step to tackle<\/p>\n

In other words, anyone offering any type of serious “minisite” or full-fledged web design is doing so on the basis that the clients are willing to be aware of these steps and that are willing to invest time and money into development.<\/p>\n

Anyone who promises “push button” web development with instant results and revenue is simply after your money. So use professional services, instead of someone that has no qualifications, no portfolio and no willingness to work using proper methods and standards in web design.<\/p>\n

Tia Wood<\/strong><\/a> already has a development system in place, catering to domainers who are eager to develop their web sites with dynamic content – for more info visit her web site – a great sample of the system is at Candy.ca<\/a><\/p>\n

Personally, at Acroplex LLC<\/strong><\/a> I offer full-fledged web & graphics development, logo & identity design, print design and consultation on how to best proceed with your existing or future projects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
