“Why do you charge money to set up a blog when anyone can go out and do it for free?”
I get asked that question and it’s cousin “why so much?” quite a bit. The problem is, if I try to explain what all is involved after you hit that button and set up that shiny, new, blank Wordpress database, I watch the person’s eyes glaze over and their brain shut down. It can be difficult to remember all the details that go into a blog installation when you do them all the time, but for someone who only knows that they want to have a website where people can read about their products (or maybe buy them right there), trying to keep it all straight can be close to impossible. Here’s a case where a picture can truly say a whole lot more.
Blog set up
I offer a couple of different blog installation packages for clients, but whether you hire me or do it yourself, don’t forget to allot the time and resources to building on that initial content (or the keyword research that should drive it — but that’s a different post) . The “hello world” post isn’t meant to be kept!
