Why
A: You could set-up your own site. Then again, you could also sell your own house, write your own will and even defend yourself in court.
DIY websites can be very attractive, but you can be sure that others will be using the same design theme as you.
Q: Why should I hire a designer?
CMS
A: No. Rather than wrestling with a CMS I focus on good design and handling all coding for you. After all, it’s what you hire me for.
Q: Do you work with Wordpress, Joomla, etc?
Existing site
A: No. I only support websites built by Real Owl.
I’ve made this tough decision so I can stand behind absolutely everything I design and build.
Q: Can you update a site that another firm built?
