Why not just use Wordpress, heaps of free templates, and it's even easier to customize.
or if you just want something small, you might be best just creating a few static pages.

Be careful,
If you look professional, people will expect professional ;)Quote:

The best recommendation is word of mouth............it is also the surest condemnation.
You are competing with professional outfits who do it full time, so you had better go for things like "fixed labour charge", "no fix, no fee", "free estimates", and so on.
Please remember that you are not the only student looking to make a few bucks on the side, so your competition is not only from established businesses.
Perhaps a very simplistic web presence is a better idea..............you see if I was a potential customer, I would need an incentive to use you rather than Geeksquad, or my local Mom & Pop, who I can at least nail under my consumer rights if they screw up.
Think about it......................?
Uwentthere? Rlyyehrly? lol, there should be tests for the official term "geek", imo. Corporate asshats pretending to know what they're doing and trying to sell you a warranty for their "service" of hooking up your box to a roto-router slice and swipe is not my definition of a geek...Quote:

Increase the amount of money you charge accordingly per type, and whammo, u canhazcustomer.
Experience is delivery, delivery is proof, the websites would be the proof. In the end, imo, you have to sell yourself to the person.
