Web development agencies can provide solution to match different kinds of needs. Some basic types of websites are discussed here:

Personal Websites

Include some family photos and your diary and you are done. Usually these will have a web address (URL) looking something like this: www.your-isp.com/~your-user-name/. Through it you can stay in touch with your near and dear over the Web intuitively. Though such website servers have limited capacities and can’t be used for sophisticated business purpose.

Photo Sharing Websites

Flickr, Photosite and Google's Picasa, yes you can too become a business tycoon by having a photo sharing website. Later you can use them for online marketing or advertising job.

Writers / Authors Websites

If you are an avid writer, and want people to read what you write, go for this. Integrate your website with Facebook, blog, Twitter account, and the old fashioned mailing list to keep audience engaged. You can include your biography, a catalog of published books and works, perhaps excerpts from some works, links to publications on sites like Amazon.com. Do give a testimony about your work by offering reviews and comments on the author's publications.

Community Building Websites
