To me a professional site will be where you can find a lot of bells and whistles added to it and a basic site will be a site with just the right information: -About us-Contact us-Some recent news-May be a blog etcThe look could be great for both the sites, which will depend how much you want to spend and the merit of the person will do it for you.
