Cheap and Affordable
June 9, 2008
I was thinking a bit today on the difference between the words ‘cheap’ and ‘affordable’.
Really because I often get calls from clients asking for ‘a cheap website design’…
So I thought I’d examine the words a bit and how I view them in my own life.
First of all, to me, some things that are cheap, really aren’t affordable in the long run. One of my bad habits is picking things up at the dollar store. Cheap household tools especially. Have you ever bought one of these junky pieces of crap?
If you have, you know that they are good for about one, maybe two uses. Then it’s right back in line at the dollar store again for a new screwdriver or crescent wrench. Now, at first glance, that buck I paid for said tool may sound like a good deal. But as my wife pointed out one day, it’s really just paying the premium price in installments. Yup, a good old Craftsmen tool runs about 6 bucks or so. So if I’d have paid the price the first time, I’d have me a doozy of a wrench and not have to worry about it breaking.
Do Craftsmen tools break? You betcha. But they offer a warranty for the price you pay. So you are covered if something does happen to your tool.
How does all of this apply to affordable website design?
Simple. Cheap does not always mean affordable. Cheap and good are rarely mentioned in the same sentence. Cheap denotes a half effort. A less than par performance. A less than average product.
So no. We don’t offer ‘cheap’ website design.
We do offer affordable website design.
