Domain Name Registration
A domain name is your internet address that is unique to your site; the part that follows the
www. We can help you research and register a domain name for your web site if you do not already
have one. Names which are meaningful or descriptive are the easiest for your clients to remember.
Domain names are registered for a minimum of 1 year.

Site Planning or "Blue Printing"
Site Planning, or as we like to call it "BluePrinting", is the first, most important
stage of web site development. At this point we work with you to establish the goals,
purpose and potential users of the site. This sets up the foundation for your site.
Once established, we can help you decide how the site should be built from a design
as well as a functional aspect. Critical search engine optimization also begins at
this point and marketing strategies are outlined.

Web Site Design
We do develop the html and the dynamic pages based on the site planning done.
We usually submit several designs for your consideration, and will make revisions
based on your input. This ensures that you will be happy with your sites design,
navigation and usability before the entire site is built. Once your design is approved,
we then will add content and images to the site.

Photo and Graphic Editing
We have the ability to touch up and enhance pictures and images. We can also add
effects to them, such as shadows, tinting, text etc. We always optimize image file
sizes for fast loading, yet crisp images. We can work with your existing logos and
graphics or design them for you. We get images from our clients in many ways including
Email, CD disc files, scanning the originals, working with a client's photographer or
taking them off their existing site.

Copywriting
Copywriting (also known as business writing) is any writing that sells a product,
service or even a person. Defining a site's goals and establishing the target
audience is key to effective internet copywriting. Copywriting for the web also
involves using key search terms for good search engine optimizing and balancing
the language with the site design.

Search Engine Optimizing
How can you be assured your audience will find your web site once it is up?
Search Engines provide most web sites with their primary and most cost effective
source of traffic. Optimizing a site to rank high in search engine queries is
something which we specialize in. The process begins with the blueprinting stage
of site development where we work with you to research and develop targeted key words which
will bring visitors to your site. We will build your site from the ground up to rank well in
the major search engines and can help you develop good content. We do not use unethical or spam
methods of site optimizing which could get your site banned, but focus instead on content, search
engine friendly construction and key design elements.

Search Engine and Directory Submission
We will hand submit your site individually to each of the major free search engines
(Google, Yahoo, MSN, Lycos, HotBot, WebCrawler, Gigablast & more.) and the Open
Directory Project (provides directory results to AOL). We also offer information
and help with "pay-per-click" and paid listing search engines such as Overture,
LookSmart and others. Services which claim to "Submit your site to over 400 search
engines" are ineffective.

Link Development
Link development involves exchanging links with other related web sites and
listing with portal sites. It not only helps to bring in additional traffic,
but also helps your site's ratings with many of the search engines. We offer
optional services in this area or can get you started to do it yourself.

E-commerce, Pay Pal & Shopping Carts
There are now many ways for you to accept credit payments for goods and services via the internet.
We can help you decide which method will work the best for you and your site based on your
individual situation. We are able to set up simple Pay Pal payment processing as well as
build large online stores with full feature shopping carts.

Web Site Re-Design
The internet has matured and gone through many changes in the last few years.
There is a much broader audience using the internet and a more diverse use for
it. Businesses which want to maintain a professional image or take advantage of
the increased audience are now considering an updated site. If you aren't sure
how your site might benefit from a re-build, we can discuss options with you or
give your site a complete site analysis.

Existing Site Analysis
We will look at your current site and give you a written report of our findings,
as well as some ideas to make it more attractive, functional or search engine friendly.
We consider the overall design and color scheme, download times, navigation, usability,
content, search engine placement and the use of key elements which search engines use to
rank your site, among other factors. Our fee for this service starts at $45.00 and is based
on the complexity of your site. We will credit the full amount of our fee toward a new site
if we build it for you.

Site Updates and Maintenance
We will be available for any future site updates or maintenance once your site is up and
running! We can re-submit your site to the search engines, check your placement and
listings, do seasonal updates, add new photos or just look things over for you. Building a
solid relationship with our clients is important to us and we will not leave you out in the
cold when your site is done.
