Who builds the worst fitness websites? I'm just asking for opinions on the Gossip and Opnion board.

NUFF SAID.

I agree. For a low price of $425, the customer gets the website built exactly to his/her specifications.

No matter how many takes it takes, they get their vision put on a site. If they're not happy, they get their money back. And I train them to maintain the site on their own.

All for 1/4 what the other guys charge.

YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR, CHEAP PRICE=CHEAP QUALITY.

IVE NEVER SEEN A WEBSITE THAT YOU'VE BUILT THAT LOOKS EVEN A LITTLE IMPRESSIVE, JUST CHEAP AND TACKY, FEEL FREE TO POST SOME LINKS TO PROVE ME OTHERWISE.

Nah, I have never tried to be something I'm not. When a client wants an advanced ecommerce store, I have a company I send them to. If they want an advanced site with tons of visuals and art (at 2000$+) I know who to send them to.

I'm a solution for small businesses and individual competitors. I don't claim to build AMAZING sites. I claim to build efficient, effective sites that help the owner make money.

And since getbig took a few weeks off, I spend some time getting local accounts and now only about 20% of my work if from message boards.

LOL... yeah, I'm observing the market. I have a pretty decent line right now. And every time I learn to build a new ordering system, flash piece, or search engine optimization strategy, the value goes up more.

Feb 28 I'll be raising prices again for anyone who doesn't secure a deposit before then.

Nope. Price is $425 now. Still the lowest around for the site, training, and support you get.

I make quality websites with excellent service for only $399

My nickname in the high school showers was always "tripod". I never figured out why.

Queer! $425 for a small business website, your joking right. If you were serious about build websites and making money you would look into making 'clan' websites for gamers. That is where the money is, but your to stupid to figure that out. 240 or bust, fucking bust a nut in your ass, fool!
South Korea, Canada, USA like come on 240 if you didn't know that the gamming community was a real seller, then you need you quit your job and go back into a web design program.
Flash web banners are the rage and team listing with profiles plus teamspeak server channels.
But that is right. your a homo, a loser. A 29 year old guy who sits at home making cheap, crap web sites for $425, to sell to fitness gurus and wannabe pros.

here's a hint.
GROW UP! And Get OUT OF YOUR HOUSE! Tell your fucking Parent to stop cooking with Cheese!!!!

**Logical argument, presented calmly with supporting evidence**

This week I actually picked up a small construction company and another personal trainer as clients.

I respect your opinion, but the truth of the matter is, there are many web designers out there who charge too much and don't know much about the business world. Approaching the small business market is working well for both myself and my clients. They are getting a leg up on their competition, and able to provide goods and services their competitors cannot, thanks to a website that costs less than a car payment.

Most gamers prefer to pay two grand for something shiny to impress other gamers. IMO, they represent a very small portion of the consumer market compared with small businesses.
