Frequently Asked Questions

Do I really need a website?
|
|
In today’s era of technology, every business should have a website. A website is now equivalent to a listing in the yellow pages of the phone book. This website can be as simple as providing your name, contact information, driving directions, hours and a brief overview or as complicated as you desire - but a basic web presence is vital to compete in today’s business environment.

How do I select a good web designer or web design company?
|
|
Finding the right person for your business or organization requires you first know your goals so you can find someone who fits.
A local web designer may relieve some communication issues.
Always check their references.
Shop around, ask around.
Consider ”search engine optimization” as a primary goal along with design, cost, usability, etc.

How much will a website cost?
|
|
Websites range drastically in cost based on who creates your site and what your site includes. Our basic website start at about $600 and average $900, while e-commerce sites start at $1200 and average about $1600.
Other web design firms may be able to provide the same type of site for as low as $150 or as high as, well as high as you can write a number in your check book. Of course the same type of site does not equal the same quality of site. Don’t let cost rule your decision.

Should I hire a professional to create my website? My cousin said he could do it for free!
|
|
Most likely. Everyone either knows someone who dabbles in web design or knows enough themselves to get in trouble. There are many elements to creating a ”good” website and not all website are created equal. Hiring a professional web designer will likely save you time and money in the long run. More than half of our clients are asking us to redo or fix a site ”their cousin” made. (Cousin refers to any friend or family member who is not a professional web designer.)
