Offshore design
1st Sep. 2005
"Web designers are everywhere, and web hosting is cheap. It is just much cheaper in India. So, 30 gbp paid via PayPal.com to templatekingdom.com got me a website design, an hour of the designer's time for changes, and a year's hosting for good measure. In 24 hours, and for less than the price of a few rounds in a pub, I had a new, uniquely designed website up and running. For small businesses needing a home page, why spend hundreds of pounds on a domestic designer, when something just as good can be commissioned from designers in India or Bangladesh?"
