Asked Questions...
Why do I need my website
re-designed?
Have you got an existing web site
that's looking stale and out-of-date?
If so, why not upgrade your site with a new look, or simply with
up-to-date material so that visitors can recognise that information
is current. Unlike printed material, a web site is not a one-time
project - it's an on-going one. Be prepared to update your site,
at least once a month, adding new information and discarding anything
out-of-date.
What is Website Hosting?
The World Wide Web is a massive
collection of web sites, all hosted on computers (called web servers)
all over the world. The web server (computer) where your web site's
html files, graphics, etc. reside is known as the web host. Web
hosting clients simply upload their web sites to a shared (or dedicated)
webserver, which the ISP maintains to ensure a constant, fast connection
to the Internet.
What is a Domain Name?
A domain name is a company's unique
identity on the worldwide Internet.All computers, or servers, connected
to the Internet are identified by a unique number called an Internet
Protocol address (IP address). A typical IP address appears in the
form 205.206.197.xxx. The
domain naming system assigns unique names to the IP addresses since
names are generally easier to remember than numbers. A
domain name usually appears in the form yourcompany.com. It can
be used as a custom email address, such as sales@yourcompany.com,
or as an address on the World Wide Web, such as www.yourcompany.com.
Domain names operate much like phone numbers or street addresses.
What is Website Maintenance?
You need to keep your site fresh,
updating information regularly. Website maintenance is management
of your website, whether that shall be you, us or somebody else,
you need to have your website updated. We can ensure your web site

What are Website Statistics?

traffic and analyse areas of your site which are visited most frequently.

year, web pages visited, how the visitor found your site and much
more.
What is E-Commerce?

known a E-Commerce, is more than just the buying and selling of
products over the internet, it is a complete system of services
that support both the sales process and provides account management.
What is Search Engine Optimisation?
The term used to describe the marketing
technique of preparing a website to enhance its chances of being
ranked in the top results of a search engine once a relevant search
is undertaken. A number of factors are important when optimising
a website, including the content and structure of the website's
copy and page layout, the HTML meta-tags and the submission process.
What is Pay Per Click?
Pay Per Click, also known as Sponsored
Links, Cost Per Click and Search Marketing, offers your business
a way to promote your product or service using a website as the
tool. Pay Per Click is quite
simply when you advertise under a keyword or key phrase and you
then pay each time a visitor clicks on you. The cost in financial
terms to you depends on what key words you bid on, and how many
other companies bid on those same words.
