At Watt Media, we have become specialists in certain industries, specifically Dental and Chiropractic websites, as well as shopping carts for all types of businesses. Unlike other web companies, we do not offer template-based websites. Template sites may meet the needs of many practices, and are often attractive, but there are several reasons why we have decided to keep our focus on custom jobs.
With a template, you choose a certain layout, and basically fill in the sections yourself, or have someone on your staff do it. That means that any other practice that picks the same template as you will have the same basic look on their website as yours, just with a different name. Our clients don’t want to bother having to type in all their content, upload pictures, etc. They don’t want to be bothered with any of that. Plus, they like knowing that their sites are totally unique and don’t look just like all the rest.
Besides that, many template sites feature lots of articles for clients and other features. While these may be nice to have, they often clutter of the pages and make your site look like a page on Yahoo or MSN. Our clients are looking for sharp, clean, professional sites without unnecessary clutter.
Many template sites charge little upfront, but have hefty monthly fees as well – beware! If you don’t need any extra features such as e-mail newsletters, your monthly fee can be as little as $24.95 with Watt Media. Our upfront cost may be more, but our sites end up being much less in the long run due to the monthly hosting fees.
