How much will it cost to Build a Website for my Business?

Depending on the amount of work that will be required for the full job can only be determined after a phone consultation with you. Only after that will we be able to give you a complete honest estimate.


I need a website, what do I do first?

First things first, you are going to need a www.Domain Name. Regardless of your thoughts of having a website built for you immediately, or are not quite ready for a website at the moment, registering a domain name is something you should do right now. There are many domain name registration companies, we are affiliated and recommend Pops Website Service .

There are many TLD's, abbreviated for Top Level Domains. There is the common .com and .net, along with a wide variety of others. We recommend .com - .net - .us - .info & .org. We also recommend that if your business name is available in .com to also register it with the .net. Both .com and .net are the main TLD's used for businesses and are commonly known to consumers in the United States.

When registering your domain name, make sure to write down and not misplace your account number and password for future access. If you misplace this information, it is not the end of the world, you will have to call them and have your billing information available and they will email you your log in information.


Will my website be viewable in Search Engines?

We submit websites along with the XML sitemaps we create for each website we build into Google, MSN / Bing and Yahoo Search Engines. The process of being 'indexed' by each of these search engines can be anywhere from a matter of days to a few weeks. The amount of time it takes is beyond our control. Each Search Engine provides 'Paid Placement' with Pay Per Click Advertising if you need immediate placement, your Links will Appear in the Ad Section of each page.


Can a Banner be Created that I can use with my Craiglist Account?

Yes! We can design you a banner featuring your website, similar to a Newspaper Ad that will also carry the brand image that is displayed on your website. When a consumer wants more info, they can click on that banner ad and it will take them to your welcome page on your website, or any page within your website.
We also create moving banners that have images that change after a few seconds.

I want to sell products on the Internet, Do you Set up Online Retail Stores?

No, we currently do not set up online retail storefronts. Ecommerce websites are labor intensive and involve constant security checks. Setting up ecommerce websites are not affordable and hassle free. If you're on a budget and or just starting out, we would recommend that you set up a retail storefront on Ebay. Todays Website Service can build you a website that you can use to promote and showcase your products, then if a consumer would want to buy your product, they would click on a 'Buy Now' button that we would create and have it link directly to your Ebay 'Buy it Now' webpage that would be part of your Ebay Storefront.
