I've contacted some local places, but haven't had much luck. Some already have a website they are "happy" with, but most others only want it if they don't have to pay a dime (since they don't feel they need one anyways) while the reality is that there are costs involved that I don't think I should cover like domain, hosting, etc. Seems dumb to me, but that has been the case. I'm going to keep looking though. Maybe I have just approached the wrong kind of places.
