Why I Love Homestead for My Business Website

by Kristen King on April 22nd, 2008

I’ve noticed that Homestead ads are now running on this here blog, and I wanted to just throw out my two cents about this fine company. I’ve been using Homestead for my freelance writing business website since 2004, and they are hands down the best and easiest website solution I’ve found. They are not, however, the cheapest, but I have found the quality to be well worth the extra couple of bucks a month it costs over, say, a pre-packaged template that comes with your computer or (heaven forbid) a free Tripod website.

Here’s what I like about Homestead:

• You don’t need to know any HTML/CSS/etc. to make a killer website.
• Everything is drag and drop.
• It’s very intuitive.
• Their support is super responsive.
• They offer a variety of pricing plans and design options (ie, they will let you do it yourself or you can pay them to do it for you.)
• They give you a 30-day free trial.
• They have a great affiliate program, to which I do belong.

Here’s what I don’t like about Homestead:

• They don’t work with my Mac.
• They don’t currently support Wordpress.
• That’s it.

My recommendation? If your business needs a website, and YES, your business NEEDS a website, check out the 30-day free trial. You literally have nothing to lose. Seriously. Check it out.
