Most small businesses don't have the money to pry the best website designers and programmers away from the more lucrative contracts from major corporations.

This leaves the rest of us with a two options:

1. Get a cheap-as-free website. You can get an eBay store, a Yahoo website, or sign up with a service that allows you to add your business name, information and 1 photo. You can even choose the color of the sidebar.

The problem?
Your website is not unique. Your website does not say anything about you and your organization. Your website cannot grow. For example, getting videos on your eBay store, or a discussion board on your cheap-as-free website may not be po

2. Find a friend, relative, or customer to help. Many of our organizations have gone this route. The bakery has a customer who would create a website in exchange for cup-cakes, or a nephew will do the website for cheap, or a layperson in the church volunteers.

The Problem?
Your nephew goes to college, you cup-cake loving customer moves, or the layperson gets too busy. Your website goes out of date very quickly. You may not have access to your website at all. Now you've got an inaccurate, out-dated website.

There's a solution to the problem. Or there should be. There needs to be a way that professional website designers and programmers can still earn a living while small businesses can still afford to pay for the high quality, personalized, expandable websites.

That is our quest. Care to join us? Grab some empty coconut shells, mount your invisible horse, call your signing squire and join us in the quest for the holy grail of small organization websites.
