Do You Own Your Website?

Most–if not all–entrepreneurs know that their website plays a vital role in the marketing and branding of their startup company. But do most entrepreneurs understand what they are really paying for when they hire someone to design and/or host their website? (OK, if you are a tech startup you can skip to my next post.)

For the rest of us, Nina Kaufman posted a blog entry titled “Web Design Legal Horrors” at her Making It Legal: The small business mentor’s guide to entrepreneurship and law blog. Nina discusses a recent Business Week article and her previous web design problems. So go and read her article and be sure to have a copy of your web design contract with you.
