    I've done this twice (plan A and plan B) and was really pleased with the results
    Anyone specific you used?

        Its a content management system / blogging system.

        And unless you are designer you shouldn't design websites. Pick a CMS system (wordpress) search for templates for that CMS system and then pick and install the template you like.

          I buy apple computers because they have a pretty apple picture.

          On my invoices, website, I use my name in big bold font and nothing more fancy.

            I used a local graphics/printing company for my company logo and it was ~£40 and I was very pleased with the result.

                Hi

                I want to create a web presence for my Ltd Co. Nothing fancy just informational with services and contact info.

                Does anyone have any recommendations for who to do this? I want this done on a very small budget as possible as it wouldnt be more than a few static pages.

                Alternataly I am aware there are hosting sites with templates that allow you to do it all yourself - anyone have any advice here?

                IN addition I would like a logo created if anyone has any suggestions on that one?

                Thanks in advance!

                  Do you use Old German typeface?
                  Do you have a company slogan? Umm, perhaps that’s a bad idea.
