Support/FAQ

A highly effective and properly designed website can give you a distinct advantage over your competition. A website truly has global reach; your website can reach tens of millions of people very inexpensively that traditional advertising and marketing campaigns could never dream of doing. Customers, clients, associates can view information, products, services, provide support, etc. from the comfort of their homes, workplaces, offices, the beach and anywhere in between. A website is much like a yellow pages listing, it is often the first place people look before they do business with your company. If they don't find you, then they most likely will find and do business with your competition. A website can easily level the playing field, now everyone can be a competitor, whether you are a multi-million dollar company, a startup or home based business. No matter what type of business you are in, we have a web solution just right for you.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, does my website design make all that much difference as long as it works?

When someone visits your site, they will instantly perceive the quality of your services or products based on your web design. Often times they do not even have to read one written word and they already have either have a favorable or unfavorable opinion of your company or organization as a result of your website design. I often ask our clients if the person viewing your website could not read English would they still know what you are selling or what your company or organization is all about? Web design is not always about beauty, your website needs to deliver the same layout under all browsers and operating systems. Your website needs to be easy to navigate, intuitive to use, informative, and most importantly easy for someone to find the products or information they are searching for. It is so very important to show your best by promoting a good online experience for your business to the world over the Internet and this starts with a professionally engineered and designed website.

So you don't think having a website will really help or is necessary for your business or organization.

You want a highly effective website or application and a strong web presence. So where do we start?

There are a number of steps we employ in the development of a professionally designed and marketed web site.

Step One: Typically the first step we do is a "Needs Analysis" This entails us getting to know your business, along with the goals and expectations you have in mind for your website. We will work with you to develop and outline a web strategy that meets your requirements.

Step Two: We design a mockup or possibly a wireframe of the site's layout and look for your approval. Once the basic look has been approved, navigation is agreed on, content provided we then go to work building the site, adding content, logos, forms, interactive elements etc. Along the way you are always included in the design process so that the website meets your requirements.

Step Three: We set up hosting for the site, email accounts, point your domain name to the new site, ensure the site is secure, and fully test the site for errors and unexpected problems or issues. We also educate the client on how to use any of the sites possible dynamic features such as content management systems, news editors, shopping cart systems, event calendars, photo galleries, e-mail newsletters etc.

Step Four: Often overlooked and typically under budgeted is the marketing of the website. Build it and they will come just doesn't cut it. You should be thinking about the marketing of your Web site as it is being designed. The content of the site needs to be well thought out and optimized so that search engines will give the site a higher ranking than your competitor. Choosing the correct and most meaningful keywords when creating your website's content is essential in the world of search engine optimization.
