So you have a website or you are thinking about getting one. Whether you are paying for a webmaster or going to create it yourself, this question is sure to come up:

What do I need my website to do??

Ask yourself these questions:

-Do you have a product?
-Do you have photos to display?
-Do you need a contact form?
-Do you want a location map?
-Are you going to have a newsletter?
-Do you have events that you would like your customer/visitor/client to be aware of?
-Are you going to have Video on your website?
-Are you going to offer communication via live chat?
-Are you going to offer link exchange to other relevant sites?
-Are you going to use Audio?
-What about Reliable Hosting?
-How much control do you want?
-How much are you willing to pay to get what you need, and do you even have to pay alot?

I am sure you answered Yes to some of these questions!

If your going to sell products online, then you need to find an e-Commerce solution that meets your needs with disk space, bandwidth and monthly fees.

If you are going to offer photos, you want a gallery that displays them nicely.

You’ll want tools such as Administrative Access and Website Statistics so you can monitor the process of your site and so you yourself can add or change things, or delegate a role to a person, this saves you money.

And so on considering your needs and your future wants……

Some Free with limited ability and some really great affordable websites that offer a ton of features.  If you take the time and do the same search you will come up with a solution that best suits what you Need your website to do, and also what you want it to do!
