			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.makeyouhip.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/templates.png" rel="lightbox[229]"><img class="size-full wp-image-230 alignleft" title="templates" src="http://www.makeyouhip.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/templates.png" alt="" width="204" height="111" /></a>Here&#8217;s a scenario: You want a decent looking website, you want to be able to manage your own content, and you want to keep the price reasonable. So you find a corporate looking web design site that seems to offer it all. &#8220;Legit,&#8221; you think.</p>
<p>Sure, legit. But more often than not, you&#8217;ll be getting a template. It will probably be fairly clean looking, reasonable to manage, but it&#8217;ll still be a template. Many other people may have a site that looks similar, if not exactly, like your own. Your ability to leave a memorable impression goes out the door with your visitor.<span id="more-229"></span></p>
<p>That&#8217;s the reason some template sites allow you to purchase the exclusive rights to a template &#8212; for a price. What you get then, is template that you&#8217;ve had absolutely no input on, and that you can only hope will do, act, and feel like you want it in the long run.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s a solution: Hip Web Design makes custom web sites. No one will have one like it. It will be yours, with your own vibe, with the ability manage the content your own and still have it do, act, and feel exactly how you want it.</p>
<p>&#8220;Legit?&#8221; you might still be asking? Quite.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m a freelance designer, which means I only work on a handful of projects at a time. You get personal, one-on-one service that no corporate firm can offer you and at a price that is competitive.</p>
<p>So don&#8217;t be tempted by templates. In the long run, it isn&#8217;t worth it. You&#8217;ll grow tired of it. It&#8217;ll quickly become out dated. Your visitors won&#8217;t be wowed into coming back.</p>
<p>If you&#8217;re going to spend money on a website, you might as well do something that will get you noticed.</p>
