Just two weeks ago, my website had been hacked and what drove me crazy was I couldn't find out what was wrong, or which files were been hacked. All I knew was the site had been marked as containing malicious code by Google and hence visitors could not get to my site, which in another words, my site was blocked by Google!

It quickly became a hit year after year partly because of its simplicity of usage and free of charge.
Time and time I have been asked the question, how much does a website cost and most of the time the response I got from them would be, "Wow, that's a bit too expensive, etc". Well, the truth is, since the .COM bubble era, web design industry has evolved and I have to say, one of the very important job as a web designer/ developer today is to educate clients the whole story of getting a professional website.
