Here are some questions that we're asked
frequently:
Q: I'm not open for
business yet, but I plan on being open in five or six months.
Should I be getting a web site right now? A: YES! YES! YES!
It can take from six to twelve weeks for a new site to
propagate into search engines on the web, so the sooner, the better!
Q: How long will it
take to complete my web site? A: Our turn around time
averages a month from receipt of the deposit. It could be less,
it could be more, depending on what you want. We know that your site
is always time-sensitive, especially if this is a new build/new
business site.
REMEMBER! Creating a brand new website not
only requires time from the designer and developer, but from the
client as well. We will be working with you every step of the way.
So, depending on you, the project can finish quickly or
not so quickly. If you have time constraints regarding a grand
opening or the start of a high season, it is best to get a web
site done BEFORE these deadlines.
Q: How
does the design process work and what can I expect?
A: There are many, many
steps. We aren't a mill churning out web sites, where you send us
pictures and we give you a hum-drum, junior high-looking design. It
goes down like this:
· We'll
email you a simple form asking you a few questions about how you
visualize your new web site and your general market. Fill out
the project order form, and be sure to include ALL
details. ·
After we receive your order, we'll send you over an official
quote, and a copy of our terms and conditions. You can expect
this paperwork back within 5 business days.
·
After these two steps, the terms and conditions are in
effect. A 50% deposit for the first part of the work must be made
within 10 days via Paypal. No work will begin until we receive your
deposit and it is confirmed.
·
After payment is received, we'll being creating your
site. Once you receive the
first draft of your site's design PLEASE list the exact changes you
want. ·
After you approve the final graphical draft, HTML coding will
begin. Your design will be tested on one of our test servers. A
total of 10 (ten) textual/coded changes may be made after the
final, coded draft is created. Any draft work past this will
incur the hourly fee that was agreed upon in the terms.
·
The balance of the payment is due now! You may also opt to
send this in advance. We will not upload the website to your servers
until we receive the second payment, so feel free to send it in
advance!
·
Launch time! The designer will request at this time your
web hosting login information and FTP/control panel
information. Not sure if your host meets the requirements? Please
ask us! We can take care of your hosting needs,
too. · Once
the site is completed and published to the web, its content and
art is yours to keep. We'll offer basic technical
support for your new site and error corrections to total no
more than 1 hour as per the pre-agreed terms.
Q: Can I meet you or call
you to talk about my new web site?
A: We keep a constant
email dialog going with our clients during the entire pre-design
process to ensure that your questions and concerns are understood.
Once we get the design process going and receive the deposit we will
call you and discuss your business to create your specialized
marketing and advertising strategy. If you want us to visit your
property, that will be agreed upon in the work terms
beforehand.
Q: My web site
launched a while back, but now something is broken, AND I
want to change out a picture or add some text. Can you
help?
A: We will work for a total
of 1 hour of service for you after the web
site has been launched to fix any glitches, introduce you to the web
site, and to give you a primer in search engine marketing. Any new
problems or requests resulting after this will incur our pre-agreed
upon design fee, and will then be processed and placed in our queue
of work.
Q: Why is your pricing by
quote only?
A: Every site we create is
unique based upon your market and your property. Therefore, we can't
set a price. We want to ensure that we meet all of your needs -- at
the price that is fair for you, and for our specialized
talents. We do have several site and page options based on
how far your marketing budget can go, from a simple three-page
site to a total marketing campaign with print media and ad
buys.
Q: I sent my payment, when
do you start?
A: You will be notified as
soon as we receive your cleared payment, and then work may begin,
usually within three to five (3-5)
business days.
