You’re in Charge - The best reason to do your website yourself is that you get
to be in charge. If something needs to be changed, you can change it. You don’t
have to pay a techie and wait for them to get around to it. You can get urgent
news out there immediately, you can add updates to your heart’s content, and
you never have to be the site with breaking news from 2006 (unless you want to
be). Being in charge of your website is the best way to make it as easy as
possible to update your website, and the easier it is the more likely you’ll do it.
