Frequently Asked Questions
Questions always arise during discussions in formulating a plan
for development of a site. Below are some of the frequently
asked questions.
How much does a web site cost?
This is usually the first question. The answer depends on how
extensive the site is going to be. After discussing your needs,
you are provided with an annual cost. Remember, our fees are
affordable.
Can you design the site and I make changes?
Your site can be designed by us and then turned over to you. Our
sites are designed using Microsoft FrontPage 2003 plus different
graphics and utilities software. It would be necessary for you
to purchase and learn the software. Most clients prefer we do
everything because they don't have the time or experience to
maintain and make changes. An exception would be if you have a
site using a shopping cart. Because you may need to add products
and change prices frequently, it would be prudent for you to
maintain the shopping cart. This is not difficult because most
shopping carts can be changed independently of the web site.
Depending on the nature of a change, we can generally make most
changes within one or two days. The only exception is if we are
out of town for an extended time, then changes will be made upon
return.
How long does it take for you to build a site?
Building of a site depends on the extensiveness and how soon we
receive the information needed to place on the site. A basic
home page with some information can be up on the site usually
within two days. After receiving the information, the site can
usually be completed within one week. Remember, a site
constantly evolves because of changes and modifications.
How will people find our site?
See the Promotion page.
What if I want to switch to another designer and host?
When you get your own domain name, the name has a numbered
system that points to the server where your site is hosted. You
would have the new designer and host change the numbers to
correspond with your new host server where the designer has
published your site. In any agreement we enter into, the client
"owns" the code and domain name. We would furnish the code to
the client to provide to the new designer.
