Doing Nothing vs SitesByTed

Keeping your current website feels free. It is not. Every day your site underperforms, you are silently losing customers to competitors with better websites.

Where Doing Nothing Wins

Zero effort

Doing nothing requires no work, no decisions, and no change. If your business is thriving despite your website, the urgency is lower.

No risk of change

A new website is a change. Changes can go wrong. If you are risk-averse, the status quo feels safer (even when the math says otherwise).

Where SitesByTed Wins

Stop the bleeding

Every day with a bad website costs you customers. A $500 investment stops losses that often exceed $2,000-$15,000 per month in missed revenue.

Compound growth

A good website with ongoing content gets better over time. More Google rankings, more traffic, more customers. Doing nothing means falling further behind while competitors improve.

Nearly zero risk

See your new site before you pay. If you do not like it, you do not pay. The risk of trying Ted is literally zero. The risk of doing nothing is ongoing revenue loss.

30 minutes of your time

Submit your URL. Review the preview. That is it. The barrier to improvement is 30 minutes and $500. The cost of inaction is thousands per month.
