Why Do We Need A Web
Site Now? Can't It Wait Until We've.....?
Sure you could wait - and in the meantime your competitors will be gaining
a commercial advantage over you.
If you already have promotional material such as a brochure, we can take that
and turn it into a proper web site in a very short time. The more content
you want for the web site, the longer it will take, of course; but even for
the most complex of sites we should have you up and running within weeks.
The quicker you provide the copy, the quicker the site gets published.
Why Should We Choose
PearlsOfWebdom.com?
It seems that these days everyone knows someone who can "design"
a web site Anyone who is at all computer-literate can write some text, paste
in some clipart and call it a web site. Web design software packages provide
easy-to-use themes for the amateur web designer.
However, many people are not aware that off-the-shelf web site design software
inadvertently creates roadblocks that prevent a site from being read (indexed)
by search engine robots. Good content, formatted to suit the robots, is
the single most important element to achieve the high rankings you need
in order to be found by your human audience. We specialize in creating pages
that will achieve a high search engine ranking AND at the same time appeal
to the human audience.
We work with you to decide what kind of web site your business or organization
needs. Poor marketing or presentation reflects badly upon your business
and an amateurish or poorly-designed web site will not present the corporate
identity you've worked so hard to establish.
We design web sites of the highest quality. Our graphics, logos, banners and other eye-catching features will capture the audience's attention and focus them on your products or services. In short, we:
| know how people use and interact with
web sites and the Internet listen: so the site is designed the way you, the customer wants it. recognize the importance of web pages that download quickly. understand that content is more important than pictures and flashy multimedia. promptly respond to customer requests. |
What
Services Do You Offer?
Site Planning We'll work with you to decide what kind of site your company
or organization requires.
Graphics We can work with your existing graphics and logo, or create new artwork
suitable for your new look! We can create custom gif animations, banners and
flash animations.
Page Design We create pages that are aesthetic, understandable, easy to use
and easy to navigate.
Programming We'll set up your shopping carts, guest book, forms, databases,
web audio and other interactive applications.
Site Set-Up Part of our job as developers is to get your new website up and
running. We'll help you choose and register a smart domain name and provide
internet hosting for your site. Then we'll load your new website and make
sure everything looks and "feels" just the way you want it to.
Site Promotion Once we're sure your web site is ready for search engine submission
we will submit them to all the major search engines. Getting listed can take
from a few days to several months. After being indexed by the robots, you
will start showing up in the rankings. We will evaluate the rankings and determine
if modifications are needed, make the improvements to your pages, and submit
them again. We continue this process to ensure you maintain your status in
the rankings.
Site Maintenance All websites require changes. We provide this service either
on a regular basis or as the need arises
How
Will The World Find Our Site?
We start by having you publicize the URL yourself: Include it on letterheads,
stationery, business cards, brochures and traditional advertising - and don't
forget to tell your Clients and Customers!
Then, we promote your web site on the Internet itself. There is more to the
process than meets the eye and it is an ongoing process. There are thousands
of search engines, news groups, banner advertising firms, link exchanges and
the like, most of which will not be appropriate for your business. We can
advise you on how your web site should be promoted and then we can carry out
that promotion for you
There are companies guaranteeing your web site's positioning in the top ten
listings on the major search engines. We do not! Your site's listing is, quite
frankly, a matter for those search engines and no-one can provide an absolute
guarantee about the placement of your site in the rankings. It will vary from
day to day and from search engine to search engine.
Each search engine (AltaVista, Yahoo, Lycos, Excite, etc.) has its own criteria
for ranking web sites and strict rules which must be followed to ensure that
your site is not removed altogether.
We will submit your web site to the major search engines and relevant news
group as part our Search Engine Optimization service. Contact us for our price
list.
What
Happens Next?
Yet another reason to choose a PearlsOfWebdom to design your site is continuity
of service. Will the 'friend of a friend' still be there after the web site
is finished to update it, extend it and even redevelop it for a new look?
A long-term relationship with you, the customer, is good for our business,
and it's good for your business!
How Much $$$$$?
Our web sites start from as little as $200, depending upon the complexity,
number of pages, graphics, etc.
Our advice is to sit down with paper and pencil and sketch out your vision
of your site. Then call or e-mail us to set up an initial consultation and
we can take it from there, giving you a budget price or quotation for your
web site.
