Question Website?

Do you have a website? If so, did you design it yourself or go with a company that offers templates? On average, how much do you pay for it? Do you think you see a return on that money? And if you don't mind...will you post a link to your site so I can get ideas? Thanks!

go to Web Templates, Flash Templates, Website Templates Design - Template Monster and buy a template. Then have someone edit it for you for a couple hundred.

i agree....but it's my opinion in anything you do, do it right or don't do it at all. I think a low budget looking website will turn people off the salon more than no website at all.

You can check out our website for our salons at Tropical Rayz - Tanning Spas, it's not from a template, but we got someone to do it for us. From here on in, we are going to do templates cuz it's cheaper. Our website is not the best out there like some of the more fancy ones, but i think it's better to have a good looking website than something that looks like it was created on myspace or facebook.

I haven't come across a free website designer that can create professional looking websites as of yet.
