There's an old saying—one of my favorites—that applies here: "There's fast, there's cheap, and there's good. You get to choose TWO."

You have three alternatives:

Cheap and Good

Use your own time to develop your website. There are no out-of-pocket costs—there are lots of free courses out there to get you started—and you already know that this works well for getting the results you're looking for.

Downside: You give up on "Fast." This choice takes time away from other business activities that might be more productive for you.

Fast and Cheap

Continue to choose ready-made web design. This way, you don't have to spend much of your own time learning and developing, and template-based websites don't cost much upfront.

Downside: You give up on "Good." You're not getting the results you want and are potentially damaging your brand by showcasing an unprofessional website. Plus, you're effectively wasting your money.

Fast and Good

Hire an experienced, qualified Malaysian web developer at market rates to create a high-quality website for your business. You will have a chance of getting a platform comparable in quality to what Fortune 500 companies have.

Downside: You give up on "Cheap." It will cost you more—possibly a lot more.

As another old saying goes: "You get what you pay for."
