What
can a website do for me?
The answer to this question is neither short nor easy. With
September 18, 2004sons,
but there are a few general statements that may help you realize
your needs. First a website can reach millions of people that
might not otherwise be available. Second, customers can view
products, services, or whatever you want to share from the comfort
of their own home. No matter what type of business you are in,
their are ways to grow and make money on the web for you. |
|
How
much does a business web site cost?
Due to the fact that all web sites are different, and can contain
many different types and amounts of content (text, images, forms,
multimedia enhancements, custom graphics, custom layouts, links,
etc) and number of pages (size), web site prices will vary.
We will be happy to meet with you to learn about your business
objectives and provide an individual quotation. For those individuals
or small businesses with very limited budgets and desiring smaller,
less complicated sites (no rich media or shopping carts), we
can create a custom web site for a reasonable price and we can
set it up so that you can easily update it yourself! It's so
extremely easy to use, soon you'll be updating your web page
in seconds! |
|
Why
does it matter how it looks as long as it works?
When you recieve a visitor to your site, they will instantly
percieve the quality of your services or products. The first
impression that a customer or potential customer has will come
from the appearence of your website. A visitor will be interested
and explore your site if it is appealing and easy to navigate.
You are marketing yourself and your business to the world over
the Internet and it is important to show your best. |
|
Do I need to hire a "local"
web site designer?
Just as you do not need to restrict your customers to your local
geographic area, we can create client web sites who are local
as well as out of state. By using the Internet, email and the
telephone, it is very easy to communicate effectively with clients
in any location. |
|
I don't think a website
will do anything for me, am I right?
No, many people overlook the various products, services, or
business processes that they can include on a website. Any communication
or interactions that happen within your business can be made
easier and more effecient by the web. Your business will save
money and time while appealing to to a much greater audience,
the world. |
|
How long will it take
to have my web site designed and developed?
The time frame for design and development is determined by various
factors such as the size of your web site, the complexity of
your site design (and whether the content and materials that
you wish to provide for the site are "ready" and available),
and our current client design project schedule. |

So, I want to establish
a strong presence on the Web. But where do I start?
The four easy steps that we provide below will guide you in
the direction to a professionally designed, developed and marketed
Web site.
Step
One: Domain Name (URL) Registration -- This is the address
people will use to access your Web site (www.yourcompany.com).
Once you have determined that the URL you wish to use is available,
the cost to register a name is anywhere from $8.00 to $35.00
per year. A domain name needs to be renewed every year.
Step
Two: Design of the Web Site -- This is where the look,
feel, and content of the Web site are determined and created.
Step
Three: Hosting Your Web Site on a Web Server -- This is
basically where you rent space on a computer that is always
connected to the Internet. Price will vary, depending on the
amount of disk space you will have and the connection to the
Internet.
Step
Four: Marketing Your Web Site -- You should be thinking
about the marketing of your Web site as it is being designed.
The content of the site needs to reflex the search terms you
will want your site to appear on search engines. |
