| Does my company need a website? |
| |
Yes! Whether your company is large or small, whether you are a service provider or a retailer, whether you have a wide customer base or are a 'niche' specialty company, you need to communicate to your customers . . . and that's what a website is all about - communication.
Think about the kinds of information your customers need - hours of operation, services provided, news and announcements, upcoming events, product specifications, or inspiration and ideas. Today more and more people are looking to the web to find that kind of information.
A website is one tool that you should employ to get your message out.

|
| What will a website do for me? |
| |
A website will help you communicate with your customers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Anyone with access to a computer and the internet (and isn't that just about everybody?) can learn about your company - your services, your products, your business philosophy, your location, your staff - when it fits their schedule not just during your hours of operation.

| I don't know anything about creating a website. What do I do first? |
| |
While you may know nothing about creating a website, you DO know your company. Start by thinking about your company's goals and how a website can help you meet those goals. Take a look at your current communication tools - brochures, flyers, print ads, etc - what information do they communicate? Jot down a list of items and information you may want to include in your website. Look at other websites to get an idea of the "feel" and layout of websites that appeal to you. Then meet with us to fine-tune your message and design a layout that works. We'll take care of the rest!

| How much will it cost to get my website up and running? |
| |
Less than you may think! Compared to print, radio, tv and other advertising, website publishing is relatively inexpensive. Costs to get a simple site designed, built and published start around $400 -$600. And unlike print and media advertising, your website will not expire after a week or a month. It will be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for years to come with minimal future expense.

|
| How will current and potential customers find out about my website? |
| |
One way for customers to discover your website is through internet search sites like Yahoo! and Google. We can help you maximize your exposure on these sites to get you noticed.
You can also direct customers to your site by including it on your other communication tools. Print your web address along with your phone number and physical address on business cards, signs, and flyers.
