Here's what you need to do to get started. Follow these steps.
- Plan - Determine clients needs and wants. Determine client's primary audience, its preference in browser, internet access, language, etc. Present and compare various options available to reach target market. Present options to web creation tools in order to accomplish the objective of web site. Prepare a Web Site Cost Estimate Analysis for review and approval.
- Design - Prepare text content. Design and prepare various page layout (templates) using provided logo and color schemes. Use of font preference, experimental backgrounds, graphics, etc. will be explored. Design and/or prepare any graphics to be used online. While we type in our HTML language codes, graphic layout and navigational links, typically, client begins preparation of presentation outline and text content for online use. WebSiteCenter can also help with your text content if you're not comfortable with writing. Present final page layout for review and approval.
- Build - With an approved design page layout, we will transfer the text and any graphic content using only approved W3C HTML standard for internet publishing or using an HTML Editor of your choice. The construction process is when we combine all the information we have gathered in constructing the web site, e.g., search engine feature, traffic count information, shopping cart, e-commerce, etc. Any last minute changes will be approved and made prior to online publishing. Upon approval, the entire web site will be uploaded to be displayed under your domain name for public viewing.
- Market - Register to Search Engines and monitor ranking. Explore other marketing avenues. Now that the entire web site is online, it does not necessarily mean instant success. It will need a big boost in visitor traffic. One way to help generate traffic is to register your domain name with the thousands of search engines online. If you're hosting with us, you are already at an advantage because your domain name is automatically registered on a monthly basis to over 300 search engines every month. There are various ways to market your web site for immediate cash flow and/or online activities. We will discuss various ways on how to further reach other specific audiences that's ideal for your business i.e., mass e-mail, search engine placement and offline publishing.
- Maintain - Monitor deliverability, presentability and functionality of the site. Maintaining a web site can be most challenging especially when you are not equipped to handle it in the first place. But if you're simply adding web pages on a regular basis, we offer training on web site maintenance to all our clients. We will teach you or your employee on how to maintain your web site on a regular basis or we can do it for you at the fraction of the cost of having a full time employee. Any way you decide, it will be to your advantage.
