True. But...
then I will simply use the site that was built "exactly as the client wants"
as an example[1] to my next Prospective Client: this is how your competitor
has failed with her web site.
[1] The initial client interview
a) Look at the good things I can do for you
b) Google at your competitors to find out what they are doing wrong. Hint,
always change *dramatically* font size and canvas area.
Then again it's no skin off my nose when the PC walks. I don't exactly
*need* clients to put food on the table. I certainly don't need clients who
think they know more about web design than I do :-)
