HTML and sun-glistening-off-the-water backgrounds

Ah, the genesis. Let there be web, and there was web.

I remember the very first site that I built. It was 1995, out in San Diego. A site for yacht cleaning. 100$. That’s right. 100 US Dollars (not including taxes mind you) was my first price. 

My web agency was open as an LLC, and ready to rock. I think the guy found me on Yahoo – that’s how good I was in the early days.

Joke aside, despite the amazing graphical illusion of a pool under the sun, and the centered text, the bold title, and the big blue links, the website was a winner for that guy. Little did I know that the web was going to boom and become the goto place to find someone to clean your yacht. But that’s what it has become. And I do think that awesome background was the ignition for us all.

Start your web agency, and they will come!

Once you are ready, just take the leap.

Even here the leap is a success in itself
