Reason No. 1 - It Takes Too Long.

There are simply not enough hours in the day for you to do your day job, keep abreast of all the changes in the internet marketing industry, track the progress of your website and make constant amendments and adjustments to your online marketing strategy.

The good news is - you have a choice. You can either give up your day job and become a website marketing expert or you can get the experts in to promote your website for you.

Reason No. 2 - The "I Can Use A Calculator So I Don't Need An Accountant" Myth..

Unfortunately, the very accessibility of the web means there are people who feel that just by reading a few articles, magazines and browsing around for a few hours a week they will be able to attain enough knowledge to take on the experts at website marketing. It just won't happen.
