#8: Q.D. Web Design

One of the most common suggestions for a Business A Week business is that I start a web design company.  Because launching a professional website a week really hones your skills at ripping out template-based self-maintaining sites.  It’s gotten to the point that that’s what I do–it’s moving from “hobby” to “competency.”  As such I hereby up QD Web Design. That’s not pronounced “cutey,” rather an acronym for “Quick & Dirty.” Because really that’s what I do… I can take any business, and put up a website that looks as professional as any of the ones I’ve mentioned within a coupla’ hours, and that means within $100 retail. If I get good, I can probably hit a price point of $50. So if you need a website or blog, pop me $50 and it’s yours. I’ll probably, in a business sense, make some money upselling maintenance or registering the domain or reselling hosting… For now, it’s design–design I tell you.
