Below are some Frequently Asked Questions to help make
your decision easier
We begin every project with our "discovery" phase where we not only ask you specific questions about your business, but answer the questions you have as well. In doing so, we are asked some questions more than others. Possibly the questions below can help you decide on a course of action. If you have questions in mind and don’t see them below, send us an EMAIL and we will be sure to get back to you as soon as possible and who knows; maybe we'll add them to the list.
A "C M S", is a Content Management System. CMS is a web application that allows you to edit your own website without any design, coding, or programming knowledge.
No it does not. Before your coming on board, our team will evaluate the type of platform (customary CMS, etc.) that you will need moving forward. Once we have a development avenue that we want to start with, we bring it to you, discuss the reason why we want to build the site using our chosen platform, and then you decide which method you would like to employ.
Responsive Web Design (RWD) is a web design approach aimed at developing websites to provide an optimal viewing experience. Essentially, when you have a Responsive website, it will conform to whatever screen it is being viewed on, providing maximum support for your users and their various devices.
The best way to get a good idea of the cost and work involved would be to give us a quick call, or email. We’ll ask you a few questions about the nature of your business and of the site, what sort of interactivity the site will have, your graphic design needs, the specifics that it needs to have, etc.
After conversation, we can decide together what it is that you desire and need in all of its specific parts and forms; and the options that are available to you. At that time a general price range and time estimation for the project to be completed will be presented to you.
This is quite simple to answer. Let’s say you need a car. The seller says “hey don’t buy that expensive one, I can build (sell) you this car for significantly less”. Ask yourself, what usually happens when you buy cheap? You guessed it…. IT WORKS! It works until you realize “wait, I can’t roll up the windows, the AC doesn’t work, and the car has rust underneath. A few weeks later the car stops running and you have to pay for tow trucks left and right. Pay a mechanic and…and…. Remember, the old adage of “you get what you pay for” is true for a reason.
ABSOLUTELY! Remember that this is going to be the new ambassador of your company. Custom designed to fit your wants and needs. Our goal is to please you and we can’t accomplish that without your input. If you give us carte blanche to design and program something from the ground up, we can do that. If there are other sites with a design style that you love and you want us to emulate it, we can do that as well. If you have a logo or brand collateral that you’d like us to work around, that’s no problem. We’ll be sure your new site will be a consistent and integral part of your overall brand.
All of our websites are created with search engines in mind, and the website design is compliant with search engine guidelines. This means that when we are ready to implement your seo campaign your new site will be ready to receive it.
The best way to supply us with content is via email or FTP. Images can be sent via email. Written content can be copy and pasted onto Microsoft Word, and also sent to us via email. Sometimes though, sending some images via email is not possible because of the files size. If this is the case, we will provide you with instructions to setup a Google Drive or Dropbox account because on those applications; image file size isn't an issue.
Yes. You will receive custom email addresses with the domain of your website. The amount of addresses you receive depends on the hosting package you subscribe to.
If you opted to get a CMS because of the features it provides; we do provide basic training to help you get accustomed to operating your website. This includes editing and creating pages with your content, editing gallery pages, changing text and copy around the website, etc.
Yes, we can help. If you love your website but know that that it needs to be upgraded to current standards, we are more than happy to look at it and give you a proper estimate so as to enable us to upgrade it.
