I run a small website design/dev business (you can view my portfolio here: https://tomtamaira.com), well it's more of a hobby. I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas about how I could advertise this. It's just a small operation and I try to keep things affordable (<$800).

 

I'm open to any ideas :) Cheers.

It is a very difficult market because you are competing against many website builders like squarespace, weebly, wix etc, which makes it now very easy for many to  setup websites, and cheaply. Word of mouth is often a good way to get business. With websites, the big thing that many companies look for is ongoing support, and whether the company is going to still be around in a year or 5 years to continue to support that website.

I know it's a competitive market unfortunately. But thank you for your input about word and mouth! I'll try and market ongoing support as a feature.

 

Cheers,
