The Real Cost of a DIY Website (and What You’re Probably Missing)

It Seems Cheaper—Until It Isn’t

DIY builders like Wix or Squarespace promote low monthly fees, but what they don’t advertise are the hours you’ll spend designing, the upgrades you'll need, or the lack of SEO support. Many businesses end up spending more in time and lost opportunities than they would have with a proper build.

Design Without Strategy

DIY sites give you tools, but not guidance. You might end up with a site that looks okay, but doesn’t convert. Without expert input, key elements like page flow, CTA placement, and mobile optimization are often missed. YeahsTrade includes strategy in every build—because pretty alone doesn’t sell.

No Built-In Visibility

Most DIY platforms stop at “publish.” They don’t promote your site or help you get traffic. With YeahsTrade, your site is automatically connected to our distribution hub network, giving you backlinks and regional listings from day one. That’s visibility most DIY platforms simply don’t offer.

Support Makes the Difference

When you build alone, you're also troubleshooting alone. Need to update content? Hit a bug? Most DIY platforms leave you on your own unless you upgrade to premium support. With YeahsTrade, real humans are just an email away.

Think Long-Term

If your website is a core part of your business (and it should be), don’t cut corners. YeahsTrade gives you affordable, professional results—without the headaches and regrets of going DIY.
