*We find the best deal for small to medium size businesses to be the CMS, Template based website.  The reasons are many but to list some of the additional benefits:
  • Empowers you or your staff to make changes to your website, remotely using an internet browser such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox or Google’s Chrome.  This saves you money since changes no longer require a web designer! 
  • Social Media (Facebook, Twitter, Linked-In) integration.  Add Tweets & “Likes” to your page.
  • Display introduction videos, viral videso, YouTube videos
  • Display content intelligently – got a sale for Christmas?  We can display a Christmas sale page and tell it to expire December 26th, so it no longer displays after Christmas, when it’s no longer relevant.
  • Using a template allows you to see what your site will look like before we start & it can be modified to fit your needs. 

questionmarkiconFAQs

How long does it take?  We can upgrade an existing website usually within 30 days.  A new website usually takes 60-90 days depending on what content is available.

What about Flash based websites?  We discourage our customers from considering a Flash based website.  Flash is visually impressive but terrible for search engines since they see it as one large graphic.   There are some options to override these drawbacks but we find it incredibly time consuming and therefore expensive to design in.

If I use a template, will my website be unique?  Even though we start with a pre-built template, what we end up with will be unique to your business.  We have access to thousands of templates.  And since we use a template, you’ll know beforehand how it will look.  Once we agree on a template, we modify it to fit your desired color scheme, logo and design elements.  Templates save us time and save you money.

What about content? Who develops it? In web design, content is king! A website’s content is 90% of what will make it successful.  In most cases, the customer is responsible for generating all content.  However we can help.

What about pictures?  We use stock photography for most of our websites.  We have access to thousands of professional stock photos and deliberately choose pics which are unique, not bland or boring pictures, but pics that bring your site to life.  We also have custom photography available, starting at $500/session.  Click here for more info.

Can you help me write for my website?  We have expert writers in various categories that specialize in custom content generation.   Click here for more info.
