What about templates to create my Web site?

Related resource areas: Entrepreneurs & Their Communities

If you don't mind a cookie cutter site, you can work with the templates offered by various hosting or other companies. You may be limited on what features you have on your site, like additional pictures, including a newsletter, etc. Consider whether it matters that your site may look like someone else's.

Some advantages:
- ease of use
- all-in-one solution
- relatively fast setup
- browsing before buying
- listing in online categories and directories.

Some disadvantages:
- limited flexibility
- your store may look like other stores
- additional features, bandwidth, or support may be extra
- costs usually increase as additional items are added
- limited support (may be Web only)
- may be tied to that Web host for software to function properly.
