Minisite design: do you know what that means? Or have you ever heard of the term minisite design? Well, minisite design is basically just a simple and static HTML design for your product sales letter or squeeze page. Usually minisite design is a term that only Internet marketers know. If you’re not an Internet marketer, chances are that you don’t know what it means. If you don’t believe me, I challenge you to ask your friends about minisite design and I can bet that they don’t know anything about it.

Sometimes people argue that you don’t need a good-looking minisite design in order to sell your product or service. They will say that you can simply use a standard HTML without any design at all. However, if you think deeply, do you really believe that website visitors will trust you when you are selling your product or service on an ugly web page? I’m sure that you will doubt the website owner and not buy his product or service.

The same concept applies for your ultimate footer ad squeeze page. If you have a nice-looking squeeze page that is professionally designed by a pro, your opt-in rate will surely increasse. For this single reason alone, you ought to really get a minisite design done by a professional. It’s really a pity if you say to yourself “I want to have an internet business” when your minisite design is really bad.

Now, you may think that you want to design a minisite by yourself. My advice is NO do not do it yourself. This is especially true if you don’t know a thing about graphic design. Why? I’ll give you three reasons why. The first one is that your design is most likely very poor in quality. The second reason is that you’d spent a lot of time trying to learn how to design and the final output (your design) will still be very poor anyway. Your time would better be spent on things that you are good at. Third, if you don’t do it yourself but instead hire a professional designer to do the minisite design, you will save both time and money and the design will be much, much better than yours.
