Why
can't I just create my own web site?
You can, many company websites are home grown.
After all, we all know someone that knows a little
bit about web design. However, be prepared to spend
a lot of time reading and learning. A web site is
like an iceberg - the visitor sees the visible part
but underneath there are many other factors such
as browser compatibility, graphic optimisation,
search engine optimisation, speed at which the site
loads and many, many more.
Do
I really need a website?
This is a question that only you can really answer
at the end of the day. However, a website can perform
many functions such as advertising, product support,
customer contact, special offers and many more.
A good web site can actually save you money as you
do NOT need to send potential customers expensive
printed material as they can refer to them on the
web and download in PDF format. This also saves
on postage.
How
long will it take for my site to be built?
Designing a site is a complicated task. Depending
on how complex your site is it can take anything
from 1 week to 1 month but in general most sites
are completed in around 7 - 10 days.
How
will I know what you are doing is what I want?
We will consult you on everything via e-mail or
phone and you can see your site being built in the
special test area assigned to you.
How
will I get the information for my site to you?
Once you have decided to proceed you can send us
the information you wish to have on your site in
most formats via e-mail or snail mail.
Can
I see how many hits I get?
This depends if you choose to host with us or elsewhere.
If you choose to host your website e with us then
you will be able to see your stats via your online
control panel.
How
do I get more visitors to my site?
You need a two pronged attack. To start with you
must promote your site both online via Search Engines
and Directories AND off-line by promoting it on
all your stationary, literature and advertising.
Secondly you must have content that people want
to see which must be kept up-to-date. It is no good
advertising events that happened in 2001. Ideally
if you can give something away this is the ideal
solution to attracting visitors.
Can
I expand my web site or make changes once it is
finished?
You can update your site whenever you wish. All
packages come with three minor updates per year.
After the site is finished and you want to add pages
simply contact for a quote.
What
are your terms and Conditions?

on request. Basically we ban sites that contain
scams, racist material or illegal or unlicensed
software. This is for your protection as well as
ours.
How
