Newlaunch.net says: Don't Let Your Web Designer Hold You To Ransom!

London,UK ( PressReleaseCollection ) November 17, 2008 —Small business owners should take over the control of their websites from unscrupulous web designers who are holding them to ransom by hanging on to their domain names and charging huge sums of money to make simple changes to their websites.<br /><br />Online website building firm <a href="http://www.newlaunch.net">Newlaunch.net</a> says that in the current global economic downturn, new and established small business owners should seriously consider building their own websites. The founder believes that it's so simple, even a novice can be up and running in minutes.<br /><br />Although there are many reputable web designers providing services to the increasing number of entrepreneurs who are setting up new businesses on the internet, there are some who are exploiting their lack of knowledge to charge exorbitant fees for poor-quality service. Newlaunch.net says that many customers are unaware that when they allow a web designer to register a domain name on their behalf, they may not be listed as the registered owner of the domain, thus those customers are unwittingly leaving themselves at the mercy of the web designer.<br /><br />In the event of a dispute with the web designer or if they want someone else to work on the site, some small business owners may discover that they have to pay a significant fee to the designer to release the name and files or may even have to undergo the expense of buying another domain and starting from scratch. If they have an established business with regular visitors, this may well lead to the loss of loyal customers and much-needed revenue.<br /><br />Seltzer Cole, founder of <a href="http://www.newlaunch.net">Newlaunch.net</a> says: "Many customers are left confused when they hear designers talking about HTML, CSS and PHP, so are happy to hand over total control of their online business to a complete stranger in many cases. This shouldn't be the case, as everything from registering a domain name, setting up the email address, design and hosting can be a quick, cheap, easily-understood and automated process. These days, there's no reason to be scared of technology."<br /><br />He also says: "It's totally unfair on small business owners to have a web designer lure them into a contract with an initial low fee to design a website, then sting them for huge fees for minor uploads or small changes to the content. Thankfully, developments in software design have made things so easy that even novices can build their own websites using professional-quality templates in a few minutes. They can then customize the templates to make their site unique."<br /><br />He adds: "The current global economic downturn means that small business owners should be focused on cutting unnecessary costs without compromising on quality. I don't believe any small business owner should have to pay thousands for a website when it could cost them a tiny fraction of that if they did it themselves."<br /><br /><a href="http://www.newlaunch.net">Newlaunch.net</a> believes that choosing a good low-cost online website building package provides everything needed to be up and running on the internet in no time: domain name, email addresses, professional templates, sellers tools, image galleries, video players, audio jukeboxes and other widgets, will enhance the customer experience. With this amount of control in their hands, small business owners can compete more effectively with their business rivals or attract customers with special offers, through being able to make changes to their site at any time of the day or night, without having to rely on the availability of a web designer. <br /><br />More info:<br />Newlaunch.net,<br />CM Fizzmedia,<br />London WC1N 3XX,<br />United Kingdom<br />Email: info@newlaunch.net<br />Tel: +44 (0)8445 870 911<br />Mob: +44 (0)7908 328 071 <br /><br />###
