Many businesses taking there businesses online are confused by the offer of £500 e-commerce website design packages, which 95% of the time simply do not deliver on their promise to generate value to a business.

Good Web Design Companies emphasize that it is very important to have versatile browser compatibility. Most of the companies can just disregard the importance of this, however if your website cannot be viewed in any other browser other than IE then there is going to be a potential loss in your customer base, even if you have an amazingly user friendly site.
