Message From The President – Joe LeSage
Hi, My name is Joe LeSage. Let me tell you how Awesome Free Websites began. I am a man of many hats. I was looking for a solution for myself 
and I just couldn’t find the right solution. I make music, videos, and also come up with new business ideas all the time. I had bought a flash software that I had spent a year of my time with. I built all these cool sites for my music, for my video business, for my real estate business, and more. Then the i-phone became huge and no one could see my websites (for those of you who don’t know flash does not work on i-phones or i-pads unless you get the app which many people don’t do).
So I began to look for another software. I found a few but the templates looked dated and not very stylish. I found places that sold individual cool templates but each one cost a lot of money. I also found a number of places that offer free websites that were pretty awesome but they charge a lot for the monthly rental and the worst part is your stuck with them forever.
We Build it You Own it
For the beginners out there let me explain. Lets say you rent a store in a shopping mall. You pay the shopping mall rent and then you design your store. The rent for your store is what is called ‘hosting plan’. Every web site is hosted somewhere. The web designer is like an interior decorator who designs a beautiful looking store for you, and also fills it with merchandise. Imagine you spent a lot of time building a beautiful store and filling it with attractive merchandise and then you found another shopping mall that gives you cheaper rent and will build you two more stores for free! The problem is according to your contract you can’t take your store with you. You would have to build it all over again. And even worse what if they start charging you more for your rent? That’s where I come in. I’ll build your site and if you decide to move – you can take it with you!
After months of frustration I finally put together a system that is simple to use and has all the features that I personally need and from what I see there is nothing like this out there that puts so many things into one package. You need an awesome music site that shows more than one album? You got it. You need an awesome site for your videos and art work? You got it. You want to make yourself look like IKEA or Best Buy? You got it! You have ideas for more than one site but don’t want to pay each time you have an idea? You got it! You want the freedom to keep all of your hard work in a zip file that you can upload somewhere else if you choose to do so? You got it!
Your not technically inclined and want to just send us the text and pictures and get your site up fast? You got it! You want a back office that you or someone in your company can go into and change the prices, or add a new picture? You got it! You want customer support that gives you really easy to understand tutorials? You got it! I can’t tell you how many videos and tutorials I went through that drove me nuts. Some people enjoy reading manuals. I hate it. I would rather have someone show me in five minutes how to change the color or where I fill in the text, etc. or do it for me. My time is too valuable. Want us to assemble everything for you? No problem.
Once I finally discovered a solution for all of my needs I realized there must be others like me out there that want an Awesome Free Website that everyone can see, with no hassle, simple to use, impressive and free – no web designer cost – just the regular hosting package which is cheaper than other similar services plus gives you the freedom to own your own work and take it with you if you decide to move elsewhere. So here it is. Enjoy it. Take it for a test drive. Fall in love and then give us a call. We’ll set you up for business in no time. Cheers! – Joe LeSage
