do I better outsource the coding part of my business?

[genesisk5]

Hi fastlaners! I'm preparing a business alone. I need something similar to a small sized car dealership website. I have a little experience in coding and I'm ready to spend some time to learn further to be able to build a fully functioning website for my business, If I really need to. but I know I'm not particularly talented for this kind of things and often times even slower than others, so it could take some time and efforts. my question is, is it realistic for people like me to build a fully functioning commercial website, deploy and maintain it well while having to manage other aspects of the business on the other side all by my self? because I have little capital I can't pay for outsourcing if it's too expensive. maybe working for a 10$/h job to earn money for outsourcing could be an option if it's more efficient? thank you very much for reading.

Hi

Since you have limited budget i would suggest looking into wordpress.

Its great for typical things that show up on websites.
Tutorials are also helpful.

Making something novel is harder (and costly if you don't do it on your own).

If you decide to pay, then be sure to get quotes from many sources,
because there will be huge disparity and range for what people will try to bill you.
Good luck!

WordPress is the way to go in such cases.
My advice is use the lightsail service from AWS: Amazon Lightsail Pricing - Amazon Web Services
Easy account and server setup and you get the latest version Wordpress installed automatically.

Damn, didn't know this existed. Do you have experience deploying web apps with this plan by any chance?

Sure, lots and lots.
Lightsail is pretty great.

Nice, was looking into the free plan of Google Firebase which extends in a paying plan depending on how much bandwidth, users, etc. you have.

Always nice to have more options to choose out!
