Creating a Free Website to Showcase My Cupcake Business

Is this how I go about creating a free website so I can showcase my cupcake business on the internet? I know that having a website is very important these days so potential clients can check out your work before placing an order.

I work out of my house for now but I have been looking for commercial space since my cupcake business (happily) is growing by leaps and bounds.

I'd like to create a website so I can showcase my cupcakes. I plan on having a lot of pictures of all the different designs and displays I do for clients. At some point in the future I would also like the ability to take orders online.

Is it possible to accomplish all of this on a website? Is this something I can do myself?

I don't have the money right now to invest in a professional website but I would like to get started building my brand. I really think that a website these days is a MUST for any business no matter how big or small (like mine).

If it is really this easy to build a website, I know that I can do it myself.

Geesh, is there all there is to it? It's really just typing into a box!

So, should I go with a free website builder or would you recommend that I spend some money and purchase a professional service. I'd love to know what you think.

Thanks,
Gretchen
