Simple Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to build a web site?
Web sites vary greatly in price depending on size and complexity. I work with an array of budgets, I can create what you need, from a simple informational site to a database-driven site with secure e-commerce capabilities. If you see a site that is somewhat similar in size and function to the one you wish to build, let me know, and I'd be happy to give you an estimate comparable to the samples you show me. For a more in-depth consultation, let's get together in person or over the phone to talk about your options. After discussing the details of your project, I can give you an estimate and answer any additional questions. For an appointment, call (561) 374.8406 or complete my e-form for a quick reply.
How long will it take to build my web site?
This depends on the size of the project. I can have a small site up and running for you in no time, a medium-size site might take a month or two, and larger sites will take longer. You can speed up the process by having all your images and text ready for me. If you come to me with a realistic deadline and you have all the materials on hand, I will be glad to work within your time frame.
I live outside of your area. Can you still design my web site?
Yes! I live in Boynton Beach, FL, but I have worked with clients around the United States including First National Bank of Arizona (Tucson, AZ), Lo-Chlor, Inc. (Australia) - location is not so much a critical indicator these days, as I have multiple avenues of contact.
Can I maintain my own web site or will you maintain it for me?
Your web site belongs to you and its maintenance is your choice. I have helped many clients learn to make updates to their own sites. Most prefer to have me make these changes for them.
How do I get listed on the search engines?
During our initial meeting we will discuss key words and phrases people will use with the search engines when they are looking for your site or sites like yours. We will incorporate these key words and phrases into the text of your web site and create what are called meta tags. These are invisible to visitors to your site but will help the search engines find you. From the very beginning, we will focus on making your site search engine-friendly. And once your site is up and running, you will have a number of options for promoting it through search engines. I can help you sort through the choices.
Will I be able to keep track of how many visits my web site gets?
Yes. Your web server will keep detailed statistics on how many visits your site receives as well as information about where those hits come from. It is useful to review these statistics when you are devising ways to increase traffic to your site.
What is web hosting?
A web site is made up of files like those you have on your desktop computer. To make your web site accessible to other people, the files that make up your site must be placed on a host computer that is connected to the Internet around the clock. This host computer is called a web server.
How much does web hosting cost?
You can view my web hosting plans page for detailed information on what you will receive and how much it will cost you.
What makes your hosting service my best choice?
I contract hosting through a large company, giving my clients several advantages at a competitive price. You have the benefit of reliability and speed through the large company plus personalized, easily accessible support through me. I provide each of my clients with professional service and personal attention to their projects, regardless of size and complexity.
What is a domain name?
The cuisinteractive.com part of my web address is an example of a domain name.
How do I get a domain name?
Your domain name will simply be a name of your choosing followed by .com, .net, .org or one of the other available extensions. However, since many domain names are already taken by others, we may have to get creative. The key is to find an available domain name that is easy for people to remember and spell. Then, we must register it for a minimum of a year. Once you have registered a domain name, it effectively belongs to you until you decide to stop paying the annual fee. Even if you're not quite ready to build your site, you can register and hold a domain name. This will reserve it for your use until you have built your site and are ready to launch it.
What does e-commerce mean?
E-commerce is just a word for conducting business on the web instead of doing it in person, through the mail or over the phone. It can involve anything from retail purchases, bill-paying and banking to business-to-business transactions.
What does a shopping cart do?
A shopping cart is an automated program that runs on your web server and lets customers click on items they want to purchase as they browse your site. When this online shopping is complete, the shopping cart program adds up the cost of the items much like a cash register. It prompts the customer to fill out a form asking for credit card and shipping information. Next, it calculates shipping and taxes, then totals and confirms the order for the customer onscreen. It will also send the customer an email to reconfirm the online purchase.
