Determine your website needs and then set a budget

July 2, 2009

The online activity is running at full speed these days. I have often written about the importance of having a website for your company and keeping it updated. However, unless you know how to design your own site and even if you do, at some point you will need to select a company or professional to take care of your website needs.

With so many changes happening online, I thought I should check in with someone who is an expert in working with businesses both large and small with their website needs. I paid a visit to Marimba Milliones, CEO of Milestone New Media Group. Her company is a Pittsburgh-based full service web communications operation, specializing in web design, development, and advertising and interactive development systems.

One of the biggest challenges for the small entrepreneur is budget. My first question to Marimba was how much or how little can we get away with spending and yet maximize our online presence?
