Do I need a website?

We are a technology driven age. There is technology all around us. Many of us cannot function without some sort of technology and most of our work relies on technology, specifically the Internet. We use it to sell stuff, buy stuff, communicate with people, and stay up to date on issues. With the Internet being involved in everything we do I personally think its important that we take full advantage of it. The Internet can be a great way to promote ourselves as a designer. I think we definitely need some sort of a website. We can take advantage of things like behance and linked in and other professional portfolios and even blogs. They are a great way for people to be able to see our work and get introduced to what we can do. But I personally feel if we have a website that is branded with our logo and has our work it only makes us look that much better. We are professionals so we want to look professional and I think one way to do this is to have our own website. Employers will see that we took the initiative and time to set up and keep a website up to date and as long as it looks good it will help impress them.
