"A company without a website is like a house without a door."
Steve Jobs, Apple CEO
Attract new customers.
Your website is a 24/7 online brochure. People in need of the products and services
you sell will find your site and become new customers.
Connect with younger customers.
For someone who is part of the digital generation, a company with
no website is like a job applicant with no resume. These prospects
will never become your customers if you have no website.
Expand your market geographically.
Anyone anywhere can find you, contact you, and become a customer.
As a perfect example of this, consider our company: a sole proprietership
in suburban Buffalo, New York. We do business with a newspaper in
Zagreb, Croatia. Only because of the world-wide reach of our website.
Save money.
Instead of investing in printed marketing materials, present the
information online at much lower cost.
Keep your marketing message up to date.
When your products, services and/or pricing change, it's easy to
update your website with the new information. Much quicker and
cheaper than printing a new version of brochures.
Start a conversation with your clients.
Clients and prospects contact you via email directly from your website.
With a list of email addresses, you'll keep people informed about
what's new with your business, keep them coming back to your
website, and keep them buying from you.
Catch up to (and run past) your competitors.
Your competitors have websites. Make sure that prospects and clients
are able to find you online too.
We can build your first site or update your existing site
I don't have a website. How do I get started?
If you want to quickly create a presence on the web, consider our one-page websites. For only
$600 you can be up and running with everything you need. If you have bigger plans, we will work
with you to specify your website, and quote you a fixed price for the work. In any case, please
use our contact-us form to get in touch with us so that we can get started.
Does my business need a FaceBook page?
FaceBook has become a significant marketing tool for businesses. Creating a FaceBook page for your
company is a (free) way to get into the world of social networking. FaceBook updates put your message
in front of all of your FaceBook followers -- you can let them know about new products and services,
sales and other special events, etc. If you decide you want a FaceBook presence, we will work with
you to create your page and link it to your website.
Should I have a Twitter account?
Twitter is yet another way to stay in touch with your clients and prospects. If you already use
Twitter, then you know how it works and how it might help your business, and we will work with you
to setup a feed and connect it to your website. If you are not familiar with Twitter, we'd be glad
to set you up as an individual user, so that you can evaluate it and decide if it is right for you
as an additional marketing tool.
Why would I want a blog for my business?
First, a blog is a quick and easy way to get fresh information in front of prospects and clients. Certainly
you want to make updates to the text on your website to reflect changes in your business, but that process
is a slower, more considered process than blog posting. You can add blog entries as often as you want, so
that people are always reminded of your products and services. Also, the new content you add to your blog
helps to make you more visible when people use Google and other search engines.
Can you setup a blog for me?
Definitely. We can include a blog in your website when we create it for you.
We will set you up on "Google Places"
Have you ever noticed that some business names show up when you use Google maps? Those businesses are using
a free service called "Google Places", and when we build your website, we will help you register
your company with Google Places, so that people will see your business on the map.
We will use Search Engine Optimization
Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the process of writing your website in a way that moves you up
higher in the results on Google and other search engines. There is no way to ensure that you will
appear on the first (or second...) page of Google results, but we will use several techniques to
get your website noticed.
We will give you site traffic reporting
As part of creating your website, we will register you with Google's free analytics service.
This will generate reports showing how much traffic is coming to your site: how many visitors, which
pages they are viewing, what keywords they are using to search, etc. By monitoring these reports,
we can tweak the SEO for your site.
One-page sites: $600
Our one-page websites are fixed priced at $600. You can read more details about these sites on
this page.
More complex sites
For websites that are more complex than a one-page web presence, we will first work with you (at no
charge) to clearly define your website needs in a written specification document. Once we agree on the
specifications, we will give you a fixed price quote for doing the work.
What do I get for $600?
You get a web page at your own domain (e.g. mycompany.com) with:
A description of your business, products, services.
Photos (e.g. of products, services, customers)
Information such as location, hours, phone number.
Directions/map.
Links and information useful to customers & prospects.
Client testimonial(s).
A contact-us form.
A FaceBook page for your business, with a link from your website.
A Twitter feed for your business, with a link from your website.
Can I see an example?
Yes, click here
to see an example of our one-page sites.
Are there any other costs?
No, there are no additional costs. The $600 fee includes your one-page website, and also
includes the cost of your domain name registration and web site hosting for 12 months.
Each year after the first you will be billed $75 per year for your domain name and for web hosting.
After the first year, you have the option to switch your domain and/or web hosting to
another provider (in which case, we would no longer charge you the $75 annual fee).
What if I want a more complex website? Contact us and we will work with you to write a specification for your website needs. Once
we agree on the specification document, we will give you a fixed price quote for the work.
Will I have a copy of my website?
Yes, all of the content we create for you (HTML files, etc.) belongs to you, and will be delivered to you
whenever you ask for it.
How do I get started?
Use our contact form to get in touch with us. Let us know that you are interested in/want more
information about our one-page sites, and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
