Forum Moderators: LifeinAsia
Here is the deal: I run a handful of websites with topics ranging from history and science to a local community website and a general interest one, with more likely to be added in the future.
I also do graphic design, the bulk of which is template and theme creation for various CMS and forum packages, but I also do the occasional logo, business card, brochure and other print design job.
What would be the best way to go about putting all these design and publishing services under one business umbrella? Up until now, it's been just little ol' me dealing with the occasional client, but work has grown exponentially as my portfolio has grown and past clients recommend me and so on, and I'm starting to get a bit overwhelmed. I figure I need to get better organized, and maybe hire an employee or two. I already quit my day job.
Really, I'm such a novice to all this that I don't even know what questions I should be asking. I guess I just need some general advice and pointed in the right direction to get started.
Many thanks!
If any of your projects are close enough to risk 'duplicate content' issues, then combine those sites to maximise benfits and reduce risks.
The usual rules apply about interlinking sites - buts those rules apply regardless of ownership (ie only link where there's a visitor benefit - or potential visitor benefit.
If it's an issue for check payments, consider making up a word, or using your name. Else keep on truckin' :)
An advertising agency! :D
Sorta.
Congratulations, don't lose track of the fun part of it.
