Web sites and generic illusion of low prices
August 8, 2008 4 comments

When enters in class development for web there is and already on the turn, is common messages very find the Internet attractive and "irresistible" for people at prices low sites sell, people who are site cheap even with the simple and only reason to sell!
You, which he has read and / or often receives such a message in your e-mail box or other means, be aware of the dangers existing in whether to purchase and has a cheaper site. At the end of the day, almost always comes out the cheapest price!
Analogy of sites
When receiving a notice of this type, where the person offers you a site - or set of sites - very cheap, is for you to be careful, very careful!
Think as if the site were a tangible product, any such as a chair, for example. You get your house in a propaganda of the tables' X 'money. It is something unbelievable, fabulous, as the minimum that can be found in shops in the city of Mobile is a price of "10 X" (ten times the amount offered). In this situation, you would not surprise the propaganda that had just received with a tiny price, so below the price found in most stores?
The same is true for the web development, the difference is that, generally, people know the prices charged in the area… Perhaps because of hundreds of sites and come to know of the existence of millions, vislumbrem not sure how to do is a complex web site of quality, focused solely and exclusively to the objectives of those who commissioned it.
The fact that the web sites being able intang í also helps that people have a wrong notion about the work excused for their making. In the chair person can sit, aconchegar up, change it in position, suspend it, finally, can handle it, since it is something tang í level, in the case of web sites, not.
The illusion of low prices
The same distrust that whoever gets in his house with a pamphlet offering the chair of price ten times lower than average, you also should take when faced with ads that promise spectacular sites, with resources of the most modern and complete automation the "price of banana. "
Generally who does this kind of offer - which, probably, is the same person making the site or sites - is "hiding something" and / or leaves introduced a service that leaves much to be desired… If not, see:
- Cost of training. The investment staff to the formation of a web developer poor (that is, on average) more than vai courses such as "Be a webdesigner in 40 hours" (sic). This type of course presents, at most, the most common functions of the tools Adobe, and look there! Ask for anyone who has done such a course on Gestalt, and see the answer… And I do not come in courses of higher education, post-graduation, etc., which cost thousands of U.S. dollars to be made!
- Time of development. Develop a Web site of quality, even the small, is not a task that is made of the day for the night. We need time to make a proper briefing of web site, set deadlines, adapt to the needs of the development project, finally, in some cases, even before you sit the computer to begin the development are necessárioas several weeks of planning!
- Suitability to the project. Similar to the law, a web development "each case is a case." Each customer and each project has its own peculiarities, each one has different needs and expectations and hopes in a different way by a single result.
Then I ask: The person who has devoted years of his life and a considerable amount of money vai a project to make ultra low prices, not enhancing their investment and their training? Someone who, for having a good training in the area and know about deadlines and methods of development, vai saying that lying is a site for ready-delivery or that one develops in 7 days? Whoever is concerned about the quality of its services and the result that its customers get the contratá them presents and generic solutions ready to be requested?
Responding to these issues only - could be much more - you can understand what is the illusion of low prices!
You and / or your business deserves a generic solution?
Is it really good for you and / or adopt its (buy) a generic solution to expose their image or disclose their own services? And what to say or think if, after acquiring such a site, to browse the web you're faced with 2 or 3 designs id ê nticos to your Web site?
Certainly, one that promises a website or set of sites at very low prices and with "prompt delivery" vai submit a set of projects that were developed solely for entering the "production line", that is, made web form generic sites for various types of business - news, real estate, journalism, coverage of festivals, etc. - in order, after having concluded - with the "quality" already mentioned - be sold to anyone, preferably many, at any price that is.
I would ask you and / or your company deserves a generic solution to a specific case?
Against facts no arguments
I know, personally and through virtual, several cases of people who have chosen to adopt one of these generic solutions, buying sets of various sites for less than $ 500.00, thinking they were doing the greatest advantage (not to lose the motto of the Olympics: thought to make a business of China)! In one of these packages of sites was to "manual of instructions" (!) Teaching how to set up a database on the server…
What has not been the surprise of those unfortunate to see that their solution was not only online, which many other people had bought the "solution", also, that its design was vague and thus its business was also seen and taken as such…
It may seem very good buy web sites of high-technology, low prices, receiving the "product" on the fly and still hear that everything is guaranteed! However, there is no argument against facts, and the fact is that you will not be making or taking any advantage! Everything that is vai to play in the trash a few hundred funds, remain frustrated with anger and then want to invest in a really good professional to develop a solution specifically geared to you and / or its business.
When that happens, do not come with the excuse that was not knowing…














Tárcio, has a general scheme of site that I come to be considered criminal.
Say, Alexis sells a site for the Tárcio. You paid me a dollar the area http://www.tarcio.com.br, another amount by the full site, with e-commerce and everything, plus a way otimizaçãozinha on Google.
Within a few days, you get your site. Accesses http://www.tarciozemel.com.br and see everything there. You are happy with their lojinha, to do some sales in "their" site.
But, in reality, you DO NOT HAVE a site!
Because, in the field http://www.tarciozemel.com.br, Alexis limited only to create a page of FRAME (!), And father-frame size zero. In the main frame open up the pages of their products but… All of them are part of the field http://www.alexis.com.br!
That is, use the dollar for my clients to create "sites" to create the largest e-commerce portal in the world!
I discovered several such cases when I was approached by clients looking to "optimize sites." In the case, all these clients were paying for the optimization of the site alexis.com, thinking they were optimizing their own sites…
There are no limits to pilantragem.
@ Alexis Kauffmann
What?!
Dude, this world lost tá… It's like you said, even: it is a crime! I believe I must warn you that for people trying to seek enhancements and take that these people have the courage and initiative to denounce who does that!
Okay that, sooner or later, people end up finding someone deceived say about the "scheme", but it is a pity staying so long and being deceived through "various resources" without that not know what's happening!
Lamentável… Good to know that people have good running ago! ;-)
Abraços!
