I own a couple businesses, and one which is a niche construction business is taking off. As in it is growing so fast I may need to actually hire full time employees… which I also dread.

Yesterday, I received two phone calls and both asked if I had a website. To keep costs down, I have not had a website built, but I guess that needs to change. On the other businesses, the websites are built but no one looks at them from the monthly emails I get on who has been to my site. Now, people are looking for this business.

For those who understand, I’m in that growing stage where I need to spend money to grow, but I don’t want to risk the spending in case something may happen. Websites, needing to upgrade my business apps, ordering large amounts of supplies and employees.

I guess I’m just taken aback by how odd people have been due to a lack of websites when I have never had anyone really look before. Which now I’m up at the witching hour doing estimates, invoices, and now checking on at least a static website maker.

I have heard of GitHub, but does anyone recommend any other static website making types? Any help would be appreciated.

    You should have a look at Affordic. Highly recommend them. They work with small businesses and entrepreneurs in situations just like yours. They do the development, design, hosting, and maintenance for a pretty decent monthly fee. They’re kinda selective with who they work with. They’re not for everyone. I’ve worked with them and I’ve had a very good experience. They like working with niche businesses. I’ve sent a few other people their way, but they ended up not taking them on as new clients. Not sure why. Never asked. I just know they are selective.
