The process of designing sites is like shopping for shoes; try on the shoes you like and go with whatever is a good fit. When it gets to be too much to figure it out go to a backup resource for support. In the case of Web sites, Web Design on a Shoestring is the comfy arch support.

Wish I had read Web Design on a Shoestring when I was still doing freelance projects. It would have saved me so much time and energy.
Shirley Kaiser of Brainstorms and Raves published these remarks on October 10, 2003.
It's not about getting a cheap web site, it's about how to achieve a cost-effective, quality web site, using your money wisely, and what tools and programs are available that are inexpensive or even free while being feature-packed and helpful."
On October 8, 2003, Steve at Rodent Regatta reflected thusly.
I spoke with a small business owner last week who had spent $200,000 for a web site that never became operational. He then spent $50,000 with another designer/developer who had the site operational in less than 60 days. Today, he believes everything he got could be built from concept to 'go live' for $5,000. I suspect he's right.
