Thank You for Visiting our Web Site.......

Are you aware of what you need to start a web site?  If not review my Check List Page!

Answers to your Web Design Questions!

Is there a fee for your initial consultation?
We provide a free one-hour consultation to discuss site development.
 
Can we maintain our own site after it is developed?
You may maintain your site, but it is recommended that you have knowledge and expertise in utilizing FrontPage 2003. We can provide FrontPage training for you to maintain your own site or maintenance on a monthly basis or an as needed basis.
 
What are the deposit requirements?
We require a 50% deposit for all design packages and remaining 50% paid once you approve design before going live.
 
How long does it take to get a site developed?
This is contingent upon the size and complexity of the site design. The range is two week to four weeks based on your requirements and that all information that is needed is given to the designer.
 
What does our company need to provide?
Your company will have to provide all necessary text required for the various pages of the site. You may also furnish your company logo along with pictures of employees, products and so forth that you would like to include in the web site. If you do not have a logo one can be designed per your requirements to match design. It is recommended to have all pictures in the beginning for a better design.  Text can be emailed to designer as site is being developed.
 
What name will our company use for its web site?
Domain name registration requires the use of a unique name not already registered. It is best to have 3 to 5 alternatives. The normal request is www.yourbusinessname.com . However, it may not be available for registration; if it is being used by another company with an identical name somewhere around the world.  We can tell you what is available and help you decide on the best Domain for your business. Should you have a Domain Name already registered we can handle transferring the name for Hosting.  We can also design a site and you handle the hosting with another company.  EKD will work with anyone!
 
How do we control the design of our site?
We provide an initial design based on our consultation with you. You will receive a draft of the initial design and you may change or modify it until you are happy with your design. Once it is accepted, the site will be designed based on the finalized draft. The final 50% is due upon completion of site design or 3 months after beginning of design if all content has not been given to designer. 
 
How do we market our web site?
Your web site is designed with the needed keywords and meta tags necessary for submission to search engines.  Each package includes six months of search engines promotions after final design is approved and the site goes live.  At the end of six months we will send you a letter about providing, at your request, a marketing plan proposal along with its cost to implement on the Internet including areas such as site registration with search engines, banner advertisements, link exchanges, other marketing strategies. The marketing plan is an additional cost, and is not included after the first initial six months.

Some Interesting Internet Facts

Click on the Down arrow to expand or collapse this item.....
 

  1. Why should I have a Web Site?  Click to expand or collapse this item.....
    bullet

    There is no limit to the sheer quantity of information you can make available
    on your web site about the products and services of your business, or the
    resources of your organization. Approximately 500 million people worldwide
    have access to the World Wide Web.   

  2. Who uses the Internet?  Click to expand or collapse this item.....
    bullet

    Great Demographics!  Surveys have shown that the average Internet user is
    36 years old, has a college education, and an annual income of $75,000.
     With the addition of the commercial online community, the demographic will
    remain high for many years to come.

  3. Can I broaden my customer base  Click to expand or collapse this item.....
    bullet

    It is estimated that 500 million people now use the Internet, and by the year
    2008 it is projected to skyrocket to 1 billion people.  Is there any other
    inexpensive way you could make your products or services available to that
    many people?

  4. Will the Internet help Network my company? Click to expand or collapse this item.....
    bullet

    You can very easily link with industry-related businesses or issue-related
    organizations through their web sites, anywhere in the world.  You can introduce
    yourself to a few hundred people by handing out business cards at trade shows
    and seminars.  You can introduce yourself to a few million people by having the
    same information (and more) on a web site!

  5. How important is the design of my site? Click to expand or collapse this item.....
    bullet

    A well designed web site costing a few hundred dollars can make a better
    impression than a poorly designed web site costing thousands.  It's all in the
    image you project, and everybody gets the same amount of screen space in
    which to present themselves.  Nobody owns the Internet, so you have as much
    access to the millions of Internet users as the Fortune 500 companies do.

  6. Can I sell my products e-Commerce? Click to expand or collapse this item.....
    bullet

    Your customers can visit your Web Site and make purchases online with no
    direct involvement on your part.  Online sales are projected to reach $10 million
    dollars by the year 2005.  How big will your slice of that pie be?

  7. Does you company provide 24 hour service?  Click to expand or collapse this item.....
    bullet

    The time of day is now irrelevant.  Your products and information are available
    to anyone with Internet access 24 hours a day 7 days a week.  Another one of
    the top reasons for having a web site!

  8. Do I need a Web Site for my local market?  Click to expand or collapse this item.....
    bullet

    If you already have a local market what better way to keep them informed of
    changes in your services, instance contact with e-mail, employment opportunities,
    community advertising and more!  You can increase your volume in the local
    market as well as gain business in the national market. How large is your business
    now?  How large do you want it to be?

These answers are general information and may help you to understand the Internet market, for it is growing everyday, but you may still have other concerns.  Contact me whether you have general or more specific question about your business or services for the World Wide Web.  I would be happy to help you in anyway!
