You don't need a website for what you want. You can easily use a Facebook page or Google+ but if you are willing to pay I would strongly suggest rethinking what you want from the web. You might be surprised at the quality work you can get from a good website.
Thanks! I have never been on facebook but may consider trying it
I just don't understand why some websites cost so much and why some are free

I suppose it's the reason a dull hand saw cost one price and a great miter saw cost a bit more. Both tools sort of do the same job but one does it much more effectively. It's all a matter of finding the best value for your needs.
I reckon your right, I'm just not sure if a website is better than a dull hand saw! Laugh!!

A web site that gives you opportunities you'd never see without one; a web site that converts visitors into leads; a web site that doesn't cause people to hit the back button looking for the next contractor.

And I second Carl's advice. Wait until you think you need the site and you'll play second fiddle to your more savvy competitors, if you even survive to play.

Business is cruel which is why most businesses either don't make it or never stop struggling.
Thanks guys
I agree busness aint all gravy always lookin for that next big job
Defenetly want to kick some website tires this winter
