Where does one begin? Because it will allow you to make more money, because your competitor has one, because web sites increase your business visibility (which increases your profits), because web sites allow you to inexpensively compete on a larger scale. Think about it, having a web page allows you to advertise on a GLOBAL scale. I liken web pages as the new phone book This is your opportunity to register yourself in the "cyber yellow pages." The advantage of your "entry," if you will, is that it is limited only by what you can imagine (talk about options). You can present yourself in myriad of ways. The potential is limitless. Web sites are your chance to put in the hands of the consumer information you want them to know about your business. The Internet IS the defining technology of this age and one of the most significant communications tools of all time. To not take advantage of such an wide reaching resource is to handicap the potential success of your business. The job of Spider Frog Designs is to help you put your best foot forward. Here's a real life example, someone in England needed a replacement part for a barbecue grill. He called a client I did a site for and they shipped him the part that he needed. In the digital arena of cyberspace everyone is equal. Your site can be viewed by anyone, at anytime from anywhere in the world. It is 24 hour 7 seven days a week advertising tool, and visitors from all around the globe use the Internet to gather information on places they are going to or want to go to. Don't you want to be one of those services? Your business has a service to offer, my business is to make sure those offers get seen and get new business coming your way.
Spider Frog Designs tailors to your needs and offers wide range of services. From the complete package of web site design and implementation for businesses that don't have sites to redesigning sites that already exist. If you so desire, Spider Frog Designs will explain the process of site implementation, from helping you register a domain name, and discussing what is involved in designing your site to helping you pick a provider to host your site. If you need photos, portraits, landscapes, a logo or have certain images you care to use, Spider Frog Designs offers a variety of graphic design services as well including professional photography.
All of our sites are custom designed to the client’s needs, so there is no one-size-fits-all pricing. This is a general rule of thumb quote and only serves as a guide. What usually happens is, we help you understand the web enough to make an informed choice, you get presented with the factors involved (and possible alternatives) to you develop the most cost-effective web presence possible within your budget.
Some factors that determine pricing include the number of pages, and/or graphics, the complexity and level of programming required and whether or not ongoing maintenance is necessary. In short, your business can be on the Internet with a complete web site, including setup, design and 3 months ongoing support for less than $1500.
Great! You, your company or organization recognize the value of a web presence. Increasingly, the company web site is the first impression someone gets of your company. Are you making the most of it? Our services can go beyond just designing a site and throwing it into cyberspace for you. You have the option to have your site managed by Spider Frog. You know your business; we know the web.
Your web site does not have to be ever-changing and dynamic but it should AT LEAST be current. If you have a web site and it is not being maintained appropriately and on a consistent basis you are not utilizing your site to its potential.
When people are looking for a product, service, person, or whatever
they want to find on the Internet, they use a search engine. They enter words
to describe what they are looking for, and the search engine suggests sites
where they can find them. You can have the best sites on the Internet, but if
your site isn't listed with the major search engines, very few people will find
your site.
I.S.P is short for Internet Service Provider, a company that provides access to the Internet For a monthly fee, the service provider gives you a software package, username, password and access phone number. Equipped with a modem, you can then log on to the Internet and browse the World Wide Web and USENET, and send and receive e-mail.
The best way to think of a domain name is as an alias, or an "Internet address." The domain name system was designed to make finding individual places on the Internet easier to locate.
It's the first screen a person will go to or see when they visit your site.
It usually provides information about your company and a directory to other
pages on your web site.
