How do successful web designers make great-looking websites quickly and at very low cost?

Paying outrageous fees for a website, sucks.

You know how many small business owners paid expensive fees to web designers while others managed to pay just a fraction of this cost? Company A, a small business, paid $6300 (source: createownwebsite.org/small-business-website-cost) for an information website. Another business, company B, paid only $200 for the same kind of website, with the same number of pages, same specs for web hosting and almost the same design features. How is this even possible?

Shutterbugs! What are the best options for photo hosting right now?

Common Question by Photographers:

I was with Smugmug. SmugMug sucks! They increased their prices by 100%! I am looking for alternatives for my photo storage and presentation needs. I was wondering what would you recommend so far.

I absolutely need the hosting to have: decent storage capacity, but not enormous (I care more about using this service as an archive and occasional presentation/display/sale vehicle).

In short, this SumgMug alternative should have clean, stylish and fully customizable designs so that photographers like me is able to upload, present and sell photography.

Our Answer:

You have two (2) options when it comes to photo hosting. You can either get a solution-as-a-service photo hosting, such as Smugmug, Zenfolio etc; or you can get your own website on a full-fledged web hosting service. You will have full control of your website and profits with the later.

What a big scam by Godaddy. Last week we paid more than $10 for a .COM domain. Today we found out that people are registering domain names for only $5.00 per .COM domain! Well, now when we looked at it from the bright side, we went and registered another .COM domain name. You should do the same too.
