Small Business Web Site Design

Do you think that just because you are a small business or entrepreneur, you have no need for a web site? Think again!  Having online presence is a must in today's digital world. Whether you are an at-home entrepreneur, small or large business, non-profit or for-profit, your business will benefit from a web site. 

A web site can list information about routine inquiries or product specifics, decreasing the need to answer the same questions over and over. What if your company's information changes often, such as a calendar or events page? Having a web site where people can look to for updated information is a plus.  Wouldn't it be great to tell a prospective customer that your current catalog or brochure is downloadable from your web page, eliminating the need to send it regular mail, spend money on postage, and possibly lose a client because they found something else quicker...on a competitor's web site? Not only is having a web site a cost effective advertising and marketing tool, it also has a great return on investment. 

We can handle every aspect of your web presence, including customizing the web template, registering the domain name, finding a web host, setting up e-mail accounts, submitting your web site to search engines, and maintaining your site. Our web sites load fast, use optimized images, and are search engine friendly. 

How Much Does a Web Site Cost?

Perhaps the most frequently asked question of web designers, it is usually the hardest to answer.  Determining the cost of a web site has many factors, such as number of pages, number of graphics, and complexity.  A basic brochure site consisting of three pages will obviously cost less than a 50-page eCommerce site.  We think you will be surprised at how inexpensive creating a web site can be and how it can fit any budget.

What is Web Hosting?

To have a Web site on the Internet you first need to have a Web server. Unfortunately, owning a Web server can be very costly and requires technical expertise that most businesses don't have. This is where Web Hosts come in. Web hosting companies provide the equipment and other technical resources that you need without the headaches that come when you have to do it yourself.

Think of a Web Host as the landlord of building. A landlord rents out storefronts to various businesses. Each business decorates and runs their store differently, and doesn't worry about the maintenance of the building. In a similar way a Web Host rents out space on a Web server, (or entire Web servers), to various businesses. Each business builds their own Web site and never has to worry about the maintenance of their Web server.

In other words, the Web Host provides the place on the Internet where your Web site lives. It's a lot cheaper than buying you own server, and you don't have to hire the technical staff to take care of it.
