Where will my website live once it is online?
Your site will live on a host computer, known as a server, which is always online. Your site will remain your property even if it isn’t stored on your computer. We will store the master copy on our computer so updates and amendments can be made.
How long will it take before my site goes online?
So that your company information is on the Internet straight away, while your larger site is being designed, we can put a single page site on your chosen host location, which would include your company details. It can also include images of your products, custom designed buttons, menu bars and titles. This single page will be replaced when your main site is published. Your main site will be online within a short time after your approval, however it will also depend on how long it takes you to supply the material you require for the site content.
What about updates and amendments?
Your site can be updated at whenever you require. We recommend your site should be updated regularly to ensure up to date information and so regular visitors don't get bored, a bored visitor won’t recommend your site to others and they also won’t return. Updates and amendments are charged at an additional cost. All updates and amendments can be emailed or phoned through to us and we will make that changes within 24 hours depending on the complexity.
Your web site can be added to at any time. Please see our prices section for information on changing or updating the site.
Can I start off with only a few pages and increase my website at a later date?
Yes, please view our prices section for additional page charges.
These price packages seem very reasonable and straight forward, is there a catch?
Not at all, we believe in being straight forward and there is no reason why a professional web site should cost the earth! All options and prices can be adjusted to your requirements. There are no hidden costs or contracts and the price for the design package is a one off payment so once the site is completed and paid for, you only have to pay the hosting fee each year.
How long will it take to receive traffic to my website?
Most search engines will index your site once submitted to them within 2-3 weeks, Yahoo! can take up to 12 weeks if accepted as it is the world's largest search engine. Once your site is indexed it will be ranked and put on the search engine, the ranking position will depend upon the content and keyword relevance and other factors. Your ranking position will depend upon competition from other sites as to how long you will stay in that position, with time the more people who use the search engine to find you will help increase your ranking position towards the top number one position. You should start to see traffic to your site within 4-6 months from first submission to search engines.
Can I design my own web site?
Anyone can design a web site, but portraying a professional image of your company and building a web site that will attract customers again and again, and at the same time keeping your site user-friendly with a short download time is easier said than done.
Not only learning HTML (Hyper Text Mark-up Language - which is used to write documents for the Web to specify hypertext links between related objects and documents) can take a long time, but also finding the right software to learn it from.
Planning and creating the perfect web site is a time consuming task, time many people don’t have when they are working on other things, such as their business.
After the site is made, there comes the next important factor, web promotion. Your site needs to be registered with major search engines for it to be noticed. There are over 1.6 billion web pages on the Internet and a further 1 million are added every week, so your site needs to be incorporated with the correct meta-tags and the correct key words and phrases need to be in all the right places, to give it the chance to appear in search engine results. The pages of your site need to be coded in order to obtain the best possible results.
Your site needs to be maintained and updated regularly.
The graphics and pages of your site need to be optimized for it to download faster. Customers don’t like to wait for a site that takes a long time to download. It should be there in front of them with 8 to 10 seconds.
How will my site be found?
Your site can be promoted both on and off the web.
There are thousands of search engines and directories on the Internet where you can submit your site. We have a web promotion service, please click here for details.
Search engines and directories are not the only way you can increase visitors to your site. For another good way to promote your site off the web, we suggest:
Putting your web site address and email address on your stationary.
Contacting your existing customers to advise them that you have a web site where they can see your latest products, news, etc.
Word of mouth.
