Lots of people imagine that making a website is a big project that takes lots of time.
They’re right. It is a big project. By big, I mean hugely important. Not time consuming. You can have a simple site up in less than a week. Get your “quick and dirty” website out there now, and make it better as you go.

You’ll never know how many potential clients you lost because they looked at your site and didn’t find what they were looking for or, worse, couldn’t find you at all because you don’t have one.
If someone refers a friend to you, chances are that friend may find herself typing your name (common misspellings and all) into Google to try to find you. You need to make it easy for her. Really, really easy. Because the worst is when you lose a client who was looking for just what you offer, just when you needed them, because you were harder to find than the other practitioner on the list of names her friend gave her.
