Rick Latona has announced that AEIOU is no longer offering mini-site services, and has stopped accepting new business.
One previous concern was that AEIOU's prices were on the high side. Over the last year or so, mini-site development became really popular with domainers, and seen as an alternative to parking.
Regardless of Rick Latona's announcement, do you think mini-site development is here to stay, or will it lose popularity? One thing about a domainer running a large number of mini-sites is that it can become difficult to constantly maintain and upgrade each site. Please share your views.
It's not always easy knowing when to keep trying with a business, and when to simply stop and shut down the business and move on to other things. Therefore, I'm sure it wasn't an easy decision to make.We were the first company to sell mini-sites so we might as well be the first company to stop selling them.
The reality is there is no money in web design. It’s hard. The customers are hard to please. The margins are slim and frankly, there are bigger fish to fry.
