How To Have a Virtual Assistant Website Built the Cheap Way

Normally, if you want to have professional designers custom build your site, you must be prepared to dish out at least a few hundred dollars.

But, all this can change if you know where to find the best deals and the best designs for the lowest price. Here's a rough guide:

First, you must understand that it costs more to have established companies design websites for you. Have you ever seen those advertisements in newspaper classified ad sections that offer a 5-page website at $500? These companies are established companies with physical locations, therefore they have to increase the amount they charge to pay off some overheads: office rent, designer's wages, advertising costs and so on.

Therefore, it would be wise to use a virtual assistant! As you already know, VAs often work from home so they do not have high operating costs like a company does. On the other hand, a VA will be able to design images with quality similar to (or better than!) those of designers from big companies.

However, choose your VA with care. The best way to find the right VA for your project would be to go to VANetworking. There you can post your RFP (request for proposal) and get hundreds of talented virtual assistants to bid on your project, so you will get the best deal. On top of that, you will be able to choose the designers based on their experience, past transactions and ratings, so your value for money is secured.

Another route you can take is to purchase the Virtual Business Startup System. It comes with several beautiful, easy to use templates, perfectly suited for a virtual assistant. They're easy to edit wth the help of WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) programs such as Microsoft Frontpage, Macromedia Dreamweaver and so on.
