There comes a point in any field of expertise when our reach exceeds our grasp. We’re all capable of changing a light bulb but most of us wouldn’t undertake rewiring our home’s electrical system. It’s not too hard to do your own oil changes but rebuilding the car’s transmission may be a bit too ambitious.
The trick is to know your limits. If the website you’ve imagined is full of modern design and cutting edge technology (see these examples)then you might be better off consulting an expert.
If you’re doing the website on your own (or with a little boost from sites like this one), get some honest opinions about your site design. Don’t be afraid to go with a simpler/cleaner look and shun the more flashy sites.
It’s always better to embrace simplicity than to make a hash of a more complex website idea. “Keep it Simple, Stupid.”
