"Why
would I need a website?"
How many times have you been
asked by customers, "do you have a website?", what
do you tell them? In today's market place, a website is an
absolute necessity.
A
professional online presence can literally give you a worldwide
audience. Your site can tell your potential customers everything
they need to know and more about you, even a full page yellowpage
ad can't do that. Is it worth it? Absolutely! We're proud
to say that we've had a clients site launch on a wednesday,
and by the next monday, they received a $15,000.00 order as
a direct result of a customer being able to see the clients
entire product line on the site. Works for them. It can work
for you!
"What
are the costs involved?"
First, there's the actual design
of the site which can range from $1500.00 and up depending
on complexity of the site. There are times when a site may
go for less, as all our sites are quoted on a case by case
basis, because every client has different needs. Can you
find someone to do your site for less? Sure, but what's
your company's online image worth? The old saying applies
to the web as well . . . you get what you pay for. You can
spend less and look cheap, or you can invest and look just
like the big boys do. A professional online presence is
an investment, not an expense.
Secondly,
there are the hosting & domain name registration fees.
We offer yearly hosting plans for $20.00 per month. The
domain name registration (www.yourcompany.com) is free
with any hosting plan. The hosting plan comes with your
own control panel where you can view detailed stat reports
on how your site is doing, as well as being able to add
and delete email accounts for you and your employees. See
our web
hosting page for more
info.
"What's
the process?"
It's actually very simple. The first
step would be to contact us. From the first conversation
we can gather some preliminary info like what type of business
etc. We can then meet with you at your location to get a
feel of what's going on, as well as seeing your products & services,
all the while gathering ideas that would taylor the site
to your specific needs. Once
we have all the info we need, we can give you the actual cost
of your site. Once agreed, we require a deposit of 50% to
get started, with the remainder due once the finished site
is approved and ready to upload to the internet.
With the info
we need, we can start laying out the actual look and feel
of the site. Once you approve the layout, we can start building
the rest of the site like inserting content etc.
Your
site will be built just as if we were building your house.
You will be given a private web address to see your site
being built where you can see everything that's
going on in real time. This will give you the opportunity
to make changes right away. This method saves alot of time.
When
your site is finished and you give us your approval, we can
then upload your site to the internet, as well as setting
up your email accounts, submitting to the search engines etc.
"What
happens after I get a website, what about making changes"
Our relationship with you does
not end when your site goes online. We are not just a web
design company, but a partner in making your business look
it's best and helping it grow. If you would need any changes
to your site, we can take care of that for you at any time.
We're here for you today, tomorrow, and beyond.
"How many
email addresses can I have?"
Our hosting plan comes with 2,500 email
addresses. Unless you're Bill Gates, that ought to be sufficient
for your company.
"Can I sell through the website"
Absolutely. We can design an ecommerce
site with a shopping cart along with credit card acceptance
capabilities and more.
"What about photography?"
We offer full turnkey web sites. We
can shoot professional photos and video of your products,
staff, facility and more. Having us provide the photography
keeps the style of the photos in perfect rhythm with the
site layout. You can provide your own pictures of course,
but we do a pretty good job at what we do, and our pictures
reflect that. |
