Broadcasting Your Business Online Doesn't Have to be Expensive or Time Consuming

“Excuse me—did I just hear you correctly? You want how much for a simple Web site? ...10 grand?! Are you out of your mind? I’m a small business owner, not a billionaire!”
Joining the World Wide Web revolution is no longer just a good business tactic—it’s now a necessity to keep existing businesses afloat and get fledgling endeavors off the ground. And unfortunately for the “Mom & Pop’s” of the world, this membership doesn’t always come cheap.
Sure, some search engines and internet providers offer a limited number of easy yet unimpressive do-it-yourself Web templates at a relatively low cost. However, no two businesses are exactly alike, so why should their sites be?
If you are not able to afford a custom-designed web site, Yahoo Small Business offers over 300 easy-to-use templates, along with a domain starting at just $11.95 per month. From my personal experiences, if you're going to go with a pre-made solution, Yahoo Small Business is the best idea.
You can also use Yahoo GeoCities to design a web site with point-and-click technology, and then register a domain name to link directly to your GeoCities page. This is very cheap, though from a professional standpoint, the cons outweight the pros. Your site will be loaded with pop-up ads that only generate money for GeoCities. These annoy the visitors to your site and sometimes even cause their computers to crash. You will not be able to embed any eCommerce into a GeoCities site. If you decide you want to copy and paste some HTML code from an online resource to your GeoCities site, it will often not display properly. The display when editing your GeoCities template often has completely different dimensions than what the user will see on his or her screen when looking at your site.
