Morachi, you’ve tried, you’ve registered your domain name for your business. And you went and dumped an uncustomized free flash template on the site. Dont.

Work on it now. No excuses.

I love comics. I love cartoons. I have consistently visited my.yahoo.com everyday for the past 4 years. Never missing a day (even during my youth service – I would go to town once a week and browse through the weeks backlog).

The vast majority of freelance designers and developers have chosen to embark upon a career as a freelancer because of their interests and abilities that are related to the work that they’re doing. Running a business is just a necessary evil for most of us, rather than being the ultimate focus of an occupational decision. In many cases, the most dreaded duties for a freelancer are those that only deal with the business aspects, such as invoicing, tracking finances and working on taxes.

Regardless of how much we like or dislike the requirements of the business side of our work, running an efficient and legitimate business is essential.

This is the first of a series of posts I intend making about poorly designed websites, especially in Nigeria. I did some of this research based on a comment made by a client of mine, a while back. I presented a proposal for a website and billed him a fairly decent sum. He countered by saying that he could get a website for less than a tenth of the quoted amount. He said he could get a site for NGN5,000. I told him it was (and is) possible, but the questions is "what will you get for that amount?"

I decided to go around and visit some Nigerian websites. Now, I do not say that this sites cost NGN5,000 or less or more. I am just pointing out poorly designed sites.

Our first victim is by a company I know pretty well. Infographics (http://www.infographicsnigeria.com/)
