FAQ's - Frequently Asked Questions

What is a web host?
Website hosting is simply taking your web pages (html files) and placing them on our servers so that the world can have access to them 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Of course this is only very small portion of what we do. Our web hosting also includes e-mail services, secured transactions, database capabilities (shopping cart), web statistics reports, technical support, and three separate levels of backup for your data.

What are servers?
These are actually computers that have your web address and all your info in them. The internet is a hungry place, so servers do just that.... they serve your website up to the internet all day long every day. That's what keeps your website up and running all the time!

"How long does it take to have a website made?"
It depends on how long it takes you to decide on your general graphics and layout as well as the actual size of the content. Once I have that information, plus the actual information for the body of your site,  the average small business website is completed within a short few weeks. It largely depends on the communication between us and how rapidly you get your information to us.

"Do you make your own graphics?"
Yes, we design all our graphics! We can use your favorite pictures or other images and turn them into a graphic just for your site as well as creating them from the beginning. We use only top software for our graphic designing. (Adobe Photoshop, Macromedia Flash...)

"How do I add my website into the search engines?"
We strongly believe each client should have knowledge of how to use their website and promote it. Experience shows that knowledge has power, and power gains success. Electronic feeds for search engines are not the ideal way of submissions, and therefore encourage each to be submitted manually.  We have "how to" pages on our site for our clients so they have some information readily available to do this themselves. We also can do all that for you at the time we complete your website for an additional fee. We feel it is important to help you to be as successful as possible with your new website.

"Do I need to have a registered domain name and pay for hosting to get found in the search engines?"
Straight from GOOGLE SEARCH... "There are a lot of problems with hosting your site at the free hosting companies, like Geocities. First off, if your site is for your business, it doesn't make a very good first impression if you haven't even purchased your own domain.

Next, spammers love the free hosting companies. So, if you put your important site on them, you could be in the same "neighborhood" as spammers, and you may even find that you can't get your site listed at all because of it. I've heard of engines banning all sites from particular free hosting companies before, so it can happen.

"Get your own domain. It's worth the small cost."
