Are websites worth the hassle?

[Rorschach]

If you don't plan on having more than a few clutches, I don't think you need more than a good Facebook page to sell well. Assuming you produce high quality animals, and can take good pics, Facebook has a tremendous reach.

I can't believe the kind of garbage dipped reptiles offered on Craigslist, I wouldn't consider animals from there.

Present yourself professionally on FB, and you should be fine without a specific website of your own.

Best of luck.

I agree with Robyn on this one. I'll take it one step further by saying social media is the best way to reach new customers online. If you have a website, unless you are really good at the back end stuff, you may not appear in search engines. While if you are using Twitter, Facebook etc, your message is very easily accessible and most times unavoidable if people have you "liked" or connected.

There are even website design companies out there now that offer building "a professional Facebook page" for specific rates. What does that tell you about the impact of social media?
