We provide training as part of our premium design services.
Knowledge is Power.
We feel that by providing the knowledge to allow business owners or employees to maintain and produce new content for their website will insure the success of the website in the future.
Many business websites have to pay high monthly hosting fees along with various fees each time content is changed on the website, we feel that this is just not the right way to do business, when owners and employees can easily be trained to do it yourself and save money in the process.
This is part of our business model, here is an example.
John doe's car dealership, currently pays $29.95 per month for a generic website hosted on a server along with hundreds of other car dealership websites, John has access to some basic DIY tools, (do it your self) Johns website is there and they do get some business, but it just is not doing what he thought it would do.
There are some good reasons why this happens, the first is that these websites just do not meet with the current search engine criteria for getting listed.
The primary reason is that Johns website is hosted in such a way that the site is re-directed to a larger directory of websites, this makes it difficult to separate Johns website from the hundreds and sometimes thousands of other websites at the same server, this just is not a good way to do business.
Why you need your own hosting account.
When I do a search for car dealerships in town, I get several listings, combined inside a larger directory, when I click on a link, I get a page that says there are no listings, Now I know there are listings, but why are they not listed in the big search engines, the reason is simple, they are at a place online that is combined with many other listings on the same directory, they are lumped together in such a way that is becomes very difficult to be found by someone who wants to see the web-page.
For this reason you need your own hosting account and your own domain name,
this is important, the difference in having a hosting account with your own domain name and website is that you can get into the search engines and be found by people who want to see your website much easier, this means that you can now make contact with customers instead of a long frustrating process of customers trying to find you.
Lets compare the difference between these generic template websites and what you could have if you get your own hosting account and website.
Generic website price $29.95 monthly plus set up fee as high as $250.00
and up for custom website, plus often you have to agree to a contract for a year or more, the disadvantages can be severe when you look at the alternative.
DIY= Saving money
Do it yourself and save!
Hosting account $9.99 per month to $12.99 per month
Domain name $10.00 per year.
Now all you need is a website, this is of course where the rubber meets the road.
You can go with the average templates or use a software program to create your website, this is something that is not that difficult, however you still need some additional knowledge in order to take advantage of your independent status.
We can help with either template based websites or custom websites at an affordable rate, we feel that the money you save over the long run will more than make up for the nominal fee we charge for a website.
The average price for a generic website after all the fees they forget to tell you about, will run you around $400.00 per year and up.
With our service you have a choice, the average price of our services plus the money you save by setting up your account and using the DIY approach will save you money from the first year alone.
Then you can look forward to operating your website for as little as $9.99 per month and keep the extra $20 each month, while having a website that can be found online by the people you want to see, this is worth more than you imagine.
