  Old  Would you hire him?

I'm not sure if this goes in General Discussion so if it belongs elsewhere I'm sorry.

I just saw an advertisement for a web design service to "put your business online".

After following the link I finally found his pricing and a portfolio(?). I'm not sure how he can put my business online by using a sub-domain hosted off of homestead.

Would you hire him? To be honest things like this just make me feel sick considering I'm sure people have paid for his services.

Seen it many times online.

There are still plenty of companies that will buy this service from him, so that is why he is still in business.

Nope, not with my knowledge of better people. However, most companies have no idea what's out there (him too, apparently).

Gotta love the lovely design though haven't you? In answer to your question: No.

Well, I think that even now - even the technophobes will know a decent design from that trash.

I like how he has a Better Business Bureau logo on his site with absolutely no link to his site that claims it...
