How to make your own website / Do you need to ask a professional?

Hello, Fujii, I'm strong.Conclusion: Create your own website.

All of my clients are entrepreneurs and managers who run some kind of business. There are many business owners who make a living in small businesses. I say to them: "Let's make our own website."

It turns the production company into an enemy, but website production is expensive. If you are reluctant to pay a website production fee of 300,000 or 400,000 yen, create your own website.

I'll tell you why.

(1) You can make it yourself! Easy to create a website

Creating a website is easy.In 2021, even 6th graders can create a website. It's easy. When I was going to create a website from scratch 10 years ago, I had a hard time asking a production company or creating it myself in html, or using a website builder.

But now it's different. Except for managers who are very weak in computers, most people can easily create a website even if they are amateurs. And it takes less than a day.

In addition, you can quickly create a highly functional website with a professional design, inquiry form, and a detailed inquiry form, rather than an amateur website.

Above all, it is easier to manage the website than in the past.

For example, we also create our own site. Please see below.

Even an amateur can create such a top page in 45 minutes. Anyone can create free WordPress by installing it.

(2) It is too expensive to ask for website production

Not only that,It costs a lot of money to hire a professional to create a website.

I can understand if the production cost is 150,000 or 200,000 yen, but depending on the contractor, there are website production companies that rip off 1 million or 2 million yen on a website that anyone can create.

So how much does it cost to create a website if you actually make it yourself? It's here.

First of all, it is 0 yen to create a website. In fact, you can create a website without spending any money using a free system called WordPress.

And rent a place to set up the website you created. If you use a rental server, it costs 10,000 yen per year. It costs about 10,000 yen ~ 15,000 yen per year to create and operate a website.

"Eh, does it cost 10,000 yen a year to run a website?

You may think so, but in fact, website production companies charge a separate fee of 10,000 yen per month as maintenance and operation costs "every month".

If you do that, you will be charged 120,000 yen a year in the name of maintenance and operation, and fees.

If you create your own website, there are no maintenance and operation costs. If you make it yourself, it is actually easy to maintain and operate. It's easier than you think.

If you think so, you will find that it is much cheaper to make it yourself than to pay a lot of money and ask for website production.

(3) Even if you are good at design, marketing is not your specialty.

Above all, website builders may be good at design, but they are not specialized in marketing.

A website builder will create a beautiful and stylish website. If you ask, they will also add the functions you want. However, they are not specialized in marketing.

They can create a website with a good looking design. However, whether or not you can create a highly profitable website that you are looking for is another matter.

If you want a profitable website for business purposes, you ultimately have to create it yourself. With WordPress, it's easy.

This site you're reading about is also made with WordPress. The production time is about 3 hours. Easy to make.

Therefore, if you want to increase sales or profits in your business, we recommend that you create your own website.

If you make it yourself, it will take some time. If you are in the stage of running a business alone, it is still best to create your own website.

Benefits of hiring a professional to create a website

But let's say you're not an entrepreneur, but a business owner. There comes a stage where you become a manager and don't do this or that yourself. There will be more work to be done by employees or outsourced.

In that case, it is better to have a professional make it than to create a website yourself.

You can get a website that doesn't fail with a little money. This is the advantage of leaving it to the professionals.

What is the recommended software to create your own website?

If you create your own website, there are several ways to do it.

Personally, I recommend WordPress. The cost of making and maintaining are surprisingly cheap. Moreover, it is highly customizable. Above all, data shows that 35% of the world's homepages are created with WordPress. It also has the highest market share in global CMS.*Reference

• I'm worried about whether I can make it myself as an amateur
• I don't understand html or CSS
• I want to make my own cheap
• At the very least, I want to create a good-looking website

If you are like that, choose WordPress.

What about Wix or Jimdo that allows you to create a website for free?

On the other hand, there is also a service that allows you to create a website for free. WIX, Jimdo, and others are available for free.

ButOn the homepage created with the free version, ads are displayed on their own.Therefore, if you are using it for business, we do not recommend the free version of WIX or Jimdo.

If you only update once every six months, WIX and Jimdo are also good options. However, if you want to update it daily or weekly at a high frequency, WordPress is definitely recommended.

WordPress makes it easy to update, and you can also create a website in WordPress and create a blog within it.

In conclusion, more freely andIf you want to create a full-fledged website, WordPress is the way to go.

Summary: Create your own website first

If you are wondering whether you should make it yourself or leave it to the professionals, please try making it yourself. You can create a website easier than you think.

Individual entrepreneurs and solo managers should spare no time and effort and make their own.

This is because even if you spend hundreds of thousands of yen on website production, there are cases where you are delivered a website that only looks good, and the result is that it does not bring profit to the business at all.

You don't want it to end up throwing money away.

I only use 5 to create a website.

• Rental server (10,000 yen per year)
• Proprietary domain (1,000 yen per year)
• WordPress (Free)
• Brizy (5,200 yen per year)
• Neve (Free)

The total is less than 20,000 yen per year. Think about it. How much do you pay the website developer every month for operation and maintenance expenses? It may be 50,000 yen per month, or 100,000 yen depending on the contractor.

If you pay 1.2 million yen a year, it is a much wiser choice to make it yourself for less than 20,000 yen a year.

If you don't think you can make it yourself, please contact me. I'll teach you how to make it cheaply.
