Regards to the list,

Many of you have very well done websites, and I'm envious of you who 
have indicated that you did the work yourself.  Are any of you willing 
to share with the list who/what you used to design it, and if you did 
the work yourself, advice for the rest of us? Who do you use to host the 
site and what kind of fees are you paying? Who did you register domain 
names with and for what kind of fees?

Speaking for our farm, because we didn't feel competent to do a site on 
our own, paid a small fortune to have an e-commerce site designed. It 
was never what we hoped, did not generate sales, and was cumbersome to 
work with. Then after 4 years, the firm we worked with raised the 
hosting fees higher than we are willing to pay, so we are parting ways. 
Although I handled none of this until now, I am the chosen on to do it 
and starting over from scratch, so I'd appreciate the advice. I know 
just enough about it to be dangerous. I'm much better at shopping on 
other sites...LOL.

Thanks in advance to anyone who is willing to take the time to share,
