When money’s tight or you’re just starting out, building your own website sounds tempting. Tools like Wix, Squarespace, or even DIY WordPress themes promise “easy” websites in minutes.
But is it the right move for your business?
Here’s an honest breakdown of when DIY works—and when it’s smarter to hire a pro.
DIY: When It Might Work
- You just need a temporary placeholder
- You enjoy tech and have time to learn
- You’re launching a blog or personal brand with minimal features
You can save money, but you’ll spend time—and probably trade some polish and performance.
Hiring a Pro: When It’s Worth It
- You want your website to look trustworthy, fast, and mobile-friendly
- You need it done right, the first time
- You’re running a business and don’t have hours to spend tinkering
