Much work ahead

Tonight I'm starting work on 2 completely new website projects care of Diamond Group Marketing.

I swear; working in web design isn't only about understanding web languages like HTML and CSS, but also becoming knowledgeable with  multiple web platforms. Understanding how to work with Wordpress and even custom built platforms has become part of the job description.

Unfortunately I can't charge for time spent "learning" a new system. I have to learn on the fly and limit exposure to funky technical issues that may arise.

And this is the main reason I prefer working my own way. From the ground up using the web authoring tools I'm familiar with.

In the next few months I'm going to invest into learning how to use Adobe Muse. Then I might be able to charge a premium price for delivering visually engaging and dynamic content without focusing so much on code.
