What are the benefits of having a Web Site?
If you want your business to grow, Advertising is the one single most important entity. A presence on the World Wide Web, helps you gain a mass market place, made up mostly of individuals with good average and above average incomes. In the last few years people are using the internet more and more for researching local businesses also.
How Much Does a Website Cost and What is Included ?
We can set you up a 1 page website for just £100. This includes a 1 page description of your business, up to 3 graphic image (either you supply a logo or we can provide an appropriate image), a domain name - yoursite.co.uk and an email address for potential customers to contact you. This also includes 1 years FREE hosting and just £45 + vat per annum thereafter.
Our Britnett Carver Content Managed Packages start from £495.
The cost of the package depends on how much work you wish us to do and we will advise you on the best options.
Of course, you could use a whizz kid friend or relative to do it for free or very litte. But ask yourself, would you also get them to choose your business premises or plan your growth over the next few years. Sure they can make spinning logos and smart headings... but is this how you want the world to see your business? Sometimes your website is the only contact that a new potential customer has with your business. Do you want them to make contact - reserve a booking - or buy your product or service? Or do you want them to click in irritation to your competitors website. Your website is how the world sees your business. That is why you must get it right. At Webecom Marketing we want to make sure that you do.
What information does Webecom Marketing Require ?
Generally we can start the Web planning process with just one phone call to collect as much or as little information you can provide. From there, we'll design a page we think would work best for you and then review the plans with you. Ideally, you should provide copy for the site. If you prefer, we can provide a copywriting service for you. You will need to supply any images you want included or we can create images for you.
Do I need to hire an employee to maintain the site?
You won’t need to ! With the Britnett-Carver Content Management Systems we use you can update and manage the site yourself. After all, what good is a well-designed site if no one can see it or if the information is old? Whenever you want to make changes or add to your site you can. We will train you or a member of staff. Alternatively, we can take care of it for you.
What are your payment terms?
50% of the agreed fee is due with order. The balance is due upon completion of all the site going live.
How long will this take to get my site online?
As a general guideline, assuming you provide us with the information:
Information-only site: 2 weeks
E-commerce enabled site: 4 weeks
Will my website rank #1 on all the search engines?
We cannot guarantee this of course. Many search engines and directories are now using "pay per click" services or Pay for "guaranteed" submission, such as Yahoo's Express Services . You could spend much more than what you paid to create your website in an attempt to gain high rankings and may have to make design sacrifices to accomplish this. It is an industry of its own.
Our BizSub service can take care of all that for you
Note: do not be taken in by web design companies that guarantee you a page one ranking. Yes, it can be done, we can do it for you, BUT, do not expect it to necessarily be found under the best keyword searches for your industry.
You can register your site with the main search engines yourself and we can offer advice but do remember
Good search engine placement can be a time consuming business. In some cases it is worth the price to pay for a guaranteed listing or use a service like BizSub. We are happy to discuss this with you.
Do I need a computer?
No, you do not need a computer to have a World Wide Website. It does help though.You do need a computer to see and navigate through your website and the rest of the internet. It is becoming possible to connect to the internet with special TV set-top boxes and even mobile phones, but a PC is your best bet by far. Plus a PC will do a whole load of other stuff as well.
I already have a website. Could I use a Britnett carver site as a Shopping Cart only?
Yes! You can set it up as a Shopping Cart only and link to your main website.
