Instead of focusing on why having a website is better for customers (100% it is), the article is really an attack on... developers at Meta and tech other companies? I love a good profanity laced rant, but the entire article reads unfocused and unpersuasive.

Nice, a human wrote it! Thanks for the recommendation!

I disagree. It is not an attack on the developers, but the platforms‘ mechanics.

I agree, the reasons were skipped, except for business hours and rates. People really need a reason to spend countless hours on something digital.

  • Countless hours? Get someone to make you a webpage, they can use Wix or Shopify or something like this. It’s never been easier or cheaper. In the grand scheme of running a business, it’s one of the best effort:return ratios you can find.

    • He is talking about a website that involves creating and designing individual pages. If each page takes 2-3 hours, including content writing, research, and photographing, you are looking at 15-50 hours for a company site. That's a lot of investment for some people.
