  • How do I get started with a new web site?

    Oftentimes, the hardest part of any project is getting started.
    To get started with a new web site you’ll need a domain name, a set of coded web pages and a web host.

  • What is a domain name?

    A domain name is a unique name that allows users to find your web site (e.g. yahoo.com).
    Once a domain name is registered, no one else can use it.
    The domain can be bought or sold but there can only be one web site with that domain name.

    We can help you find an available domain name and handle all of the registration details.

  • How do I create the pages for the web site?

    Most everyone knows a nephew of a neighbor or a coworker’s son-in-law who will offer to build a web site for you.
    But your web site is often the first thing potential clients/customers see when looking for information on your company.
    A sloppy or unprofessional web site can end the search right there.
    Your site needs a design that matches your company’s image.

    Web Technology will create a sleek and user-friendly design that will impress visitors and keep them coming back.

  • What is a web host?

    You’ve secured a great domain name and have created a slick web site but how will people see it?

    That is where a web host comes in.
    A host will "rent" or "host" a place for your domain on the worldwide web for you.
    This allows users to find your web site by typing in your domain name.

    Web Technology can host your site or help you find a host that suits your needs.

  • Can I host my own web site?

    Your cable or DSL provider would likely frown on this and may even disconnect your service.
    In addition, your home system is probably not to equipped to handle the traffic and use of a web site.
    The resources required to support this can be significant.

  • How much does web hosting cost?

    Web Technology offers basic hosting plans for as little as $6.95 per month.

  • What is search engine optimization (SEO)?

    Search engine optimization is the practice of getting your web site noticed by the major search engines.
    The algorithms used to determine the search rankings are closely-guarded secrets but we’ll employ some tricks to help raise your search engine ranking.




Business Web Site Value

Can your company afford not to have a presence on the worldwide web?
A better question may be "Would you do business with a company that doesn’t have a web site?"

Along with the advantages of having a web site, there are disadvantages and risks for businesses that choose not to promote themselves with a web site.
The greatest risk of all is the first impression.
What happens when a potential customer or business partner searches for your company on the web and cannot find it?
He/she will simply move on, never giving your business a chance to market itself.

With the availability of low-cost web hosting and e-mail options today, a potential customer is going to question your commitment to the business.
Businesses that use free e-mail accounts, like Yahoo! or Hotmail demonstrate an unwillingness to market the business.
When you use free mail services, you are saying "my company name isn’t worth $40 per year for mail service."
Is that the image you want in the marketplace?
