The design is the largest part of the web design process. The design is defined as the layout and the foundational color scheme of a web site. Once the design is built, the easy part is custom programming your content into it. If you are not sure what you want for a design, you can view pre designed template to get some ideas.

We
recommend Go Daddy for your domain; we have
used them for years not only for most of
our own web sites, as well as for most of
our client's web sites. There are very few
companies who offer domains as cheap as
they do that actually offer customer service.
We will assist you in all of your options
regarding your domain and hosting. Your
choice of domain name depends on how you
are going to use it. If you are going to
be telling people over the phone, choose
one that is easy to say and spell out loud.
Above all, I would choose one that is memorable
and not confusing.
Yes
you can have unlimited email accounts if
you host with us and you choose anything
@yourdomain.com (i.e. yourname@yourdomain.com, sales@yourdomain.com,
info@yourdomain.com, support@yourdomain.com).
Search
engine positioning is a long-term strategy
and there are no quick solutions in this
area of online marketing. In order to get
good results with search engines, your site
needs to be focused around the right keywords
and keyword phrases. If you want to boost
your traffic quickly, we suggest checking
out Google Ad Words or other pay per click
options. As a part of your setup package
we will optimize your site with keywords
and do a submittal to the top search engines
that offer free placement. We will continue
to work with you and educate you on all
of the techniques to increase your organic
placement instead of having to pay for traffic.
Our average fee for a web site with up to 8 pages customized to your preference is a one time fee of $499 unless we are running a special. This one time fee
includes setting up your site and customizing
the design you choose to your exact specifications.
We will post your design on a temporary private link on the Internet that only you know about, and over the course of the next 7 - 10 business days, we will customize your web site to your specific needs. Once you give us approval, we then collect payment, and post your web live on your domain name. So you do not pay until you approve our work!
