    Long story short, my biggest event of the year is in December and as much as I love my facebook page for it, I need to have a website built.

    Nothing crazy, or fancy, but I need the normal drop downs, some pics added, rules tabs, etc.

    Yes, I have been told "you can build it yourself" but being honest, I don't have the time or desire.

    I need someone I can call/email/text and be like "i need this added, and it gets done within a day or so.

    What am I looking at? Im not talking about daily updates, but probably 1 update per week ish?

    How many pages you need, and what (if any) special features? If "not many" and "not much", any old site like fiverr or upwork will get you copious amounts of people wanting to bid on it.

    What you're describing sounds like a typical squarespace/shopify site so should be quite cheap - depending on features and shit, a few hundred bucks.

    I dunno. The only references I have are AmericanFlatTrack and MotoAmerica but woithout videos and stuff. But definitely the drop down pages/links.

    Sounds like you just need a basic WordPress website. You can just get it at WordPress.com I think they charge $60 a year. You can update it yourself. If you need someone to update the content for you it gets expensive real quick. I have a team that does it for some fortune 500 companies. They don't bat an eye at spending six figures a year. The do it yourself with a ready CMS is what I would do.

    For a basic Wordpress site like you are describing we just paid about $450 to have someone build it then train our staff how to update it.

    I built the original site and it worked just fine but it lacked some flare but so we paid someone to redo it. I honestly think that is a great price for the service provided.

    I will see if she is still taking clients.

    That's amazing. I couldn't get someone to cut my lawn for $450.

    That shit escalated quickly for Ross Ulbricht,,,,I wouldn't have my name anywhere near that shit, jus sayin,, (sentenced to a double life sentence plus forty years without the possibility of parole. Ulbricht's appeals to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit in 2017 and the U.S Supreme Court in 2018 were unsuccessful. He is currently incarcerated at the United States Penitentiary in Tucson.)

    It looks like she is not taking new clients at this time.
