Q: I've seen a couple web hosts that advertise free web site templates. So why would I choose The Turnkey WebsiteTM.

A: The free options that are available on the web are "bare bones" or "crippleware", eliminating or disabling most of the critical features you would need to run your business such as the built-in blog, credit card processing, calendaring and unlimited email and bandwidth. If you want these features, you will pay between $20-$60 per month and assembly is required.

Q: I've been told that I should use Adobe Dreamweaver to build my web site. Why not just use Dreamweaver?

A: Dreamweaver is a complex web design and development tool used by professional engineers and webmasters. The introductory courses for Dreamweaver often run 3-4 days and cost a up to $2,000. Dreamweaver itself retails for an additional $1,699.  So that's about a $3,700 cash outlay before you've even started to work on your website. Those who are skilled in Dreamweaver have made their careers overcharging for web development. For everyone else, there is The Turnkey WebsiteTM.

Q: I presently use Adobe Contribute to update an html website. Why should I switch to The Turnkey WebsiteTM?

A: Adobe Contribute works well for updating a few html pages. However, it is very slow and constantly suffers from time-out errors where it repeatedly fails to make a connection to your website. Additionally, Contribute is for html content only. It lacks the fully integrated, high end features such as the blog, the web store and price list, the Google custom search box, Google Calendar and any semblance of search engine optimization. All of these features must be manually integrated.
