Frequently Asked Questions

 

Does my business need a web site?

Ask yourself this, "How much would my business benefit from advertising that runs 24/7, 365 days a year?" The answer is obvious. The internet is the only medium that allows you to market directly to your customers at their convenience.

I want to get my business online, but I don't know where to start, can you help?

Of course! You don't need any experience at all, we can help you from start to finish. It all starts with a free consultation to figure out your needs and what's best for you and your business.

What do you need to get started?

Logos, brochures, business cards, photographs, etc. are all great resources to use. If you're a completely new business, we can work with you to create a consistent brand that can be used both online and off.

Why should I hire a website designer?

To save time and money. Hiring a professional will allow you to focus on your business while we focus on your site. We have the experience to get it done quickly and efficiently!

How long will it take for you to build my web site?

There are many factors that determine how much time it will take to develop a site. After the initial consultation we will document your requirements. Once you're satisfied that we understand what your business is looking for, we will provide a project timeline with estimates as to time and cost of building your website.

How much say do I have in the process?

Your input is vital to making sure we deliver what you need and want. It is your website after all!

I already have a website, can you help me?

Absolutely! In fact redesigning or "freshening" an existing website is often quicker and simpler than developing one from scratch. Just let us know what's missing, not working, etc. and we'll work with you to fix it.

Can you use my existing logo, brochures, etc.?

Certainly. If your promotional materials aren't in electronic format, we can convert them to something appropriate for use on your website. We can even scan printed materials, take photographs or convert files from a CD or floppy for use.

What's website maintenance?

Whether we need to keep your website updated after the initial design, help you update a site you already have by adding news, events or changing product information, it all falls under the category of website maintenance.

What domain name should I choose?

This is one of the hardest parts of creating a successful website. Depending on availability, it could be your business name, product name, or it could be a word or phrase: it really depends on how you want your customers to relate to your website. We can help you research availability and work with you to find alternatives when necessary.

Can you register my domain name for me?

Yes. We can register the domain name for you or we can help you register the domain yourself if you prefer, and are comfortable, administering the domain yourself. Either way, we're here to make sure you get the domain you want.

How do I get my site listed on search engines?

Most modern search engines use their own, proprietary systems for finding sites. These search engines look at incoming links to determine your popularity and relevance.
