Then you need a website. It doesn’t matter what kind of business or whether any part of it is conducted online. Customers and, especially, potential customers expect you to have an online presence, even if only to provide contact information. You can bet that your competitors are there.
Are you a blue-ribbon baker or Civil War buff? Did the movie Julie and Julia get you excited about starting your own blog? There are lots of reasons to set up a website that have nothing to do with the business world. Sometimes it really is all about you!
Just because you have nothing to sell doesn’t mean that you haven’t a need for a website. A well-designed site can be invaluable for providing information, organizing events and recruiting members and volunteers.Worried About the Cost?
Not long ago, having a website designed and published was a pretty expensive project. Not so anymore. Check out our package prices. There’s really no excuse to not have a professional looking website.
Feeling Overwhelmed?
Choosing a domain name. Setting up hosting. Deciding on a format. Uploading content and photos. It can be overwhelming just knowing where to start. It really doesn’t have to be. All you need to do is take the first step.
“BWD rocks! My site was up and running within a few days, and I’ve already received compliments about how well it flows. Customer Service at BWD is also great. All my questions were answered promptly and thoroughly. Together, we quickly designed a website that works for me. And now, I have complete control over it. I love it!”

“About two months ago I was frustrated and under pressure. In the latter part of 2010 I had spent a lot of money having a website designed but it wasn’t working for me. I kept having to contact the designer to have any changes made and the nature of my work guaranteed that changes would be a constant. Time consuming, expensive, aggravating and hair pulling were some of my many emotions regarding the box I found myself in. I needed a dynamic, easy to use, classy site. I needed something that I could manage the information flow on. I am rather old school in that I prefer to have ‘face time’ with anyone I do business with, especially something so important as developing my website. My business is rather unique and it was important that I be understood so that the site would really represent what I do and who I am; I was concerned that I needed to meet the designer in order for this to happen. A friend of mine recommended Karen Allen, Baxter Web Design, and based on that referral I asked her to see what she could do to salvage my investment. Wow!! She was everything I could have wished for; creative, responsive and more importantly she ‘got me’ and what I was trying to do. She didn’t need to meet me in person to accomplish this. In about two weeks she had designed a new site and had me up and running! This was remarkable considering the three months it took to have the old site developed and brought online initially, not to mention the extras for the changes. The cost for this redesign was a fraction of what the original had been. I give a Five Star rating to the design, service and responsiveness of Baxter Web Design. I have recommended Karen to others and I highly recommend her to you.”
