Also where you live and how likely you are to get customers/Clients near your dwelling.
Sure you can develop World Wide over the Net but in reality you have to get Local Customers first so that you can develop a following and then maybe get some Nation Wide or International Customers which are far harder to get when you can not face them directly and there is lots of competition for what you are doing.
While a good Web Site will always help the reality is that most Web Developers have Great Web Sites as that is what the potential Client first sees and they will judge you on that which could kill any approach that they may make before the page finishes loading. If they do not like the look they will go elsewhere.
People have different tastes and will go with what they like and never give a second thought to Web Sites that do not appeal to them personally. The reality is that no two people ever agree on what they like and then throw in different cultures and the likes and dislikes become massive and as it is the first thing that anyone not in your area will see of you it’s likely to be a very slow process to get started and you need income to last till you get those clients.
