Developing a Professional Web Site with Templates
Sent by Vids on July 9th 2008 source
We're planning our company's first Web site right now, but we don't have any idea of how much it's going to cost. Is there any way we can hold down costs at least at the beginning?
Include your domain name and email address on all of your sales material, business cards, advertising material and Letterheads. That way, your Web site can provide information to your clients on their schedule. It can also function as a member of your sales force, allowing you to expand your possibilities and appeal to more customers.
Below is a checklist of some important things you will need to remember while you are setting up your Web site.
1. Purchase a domain that is catchy and easy to remember. If your company name does not evoke instant recognition, try purchasing a domain name that describes what you do or what you sell. For a sample Domain Name Purchase Agreement, check out the Forms & Agreements Center at www.ensure.co.in
2. Find an e-commerce Web hosting package. There are many hosting companies that offer Web site packages that are geared toward businesses. These packages often include a shopping cart, mailing list software, and site promotion tools that will allow you to save time and money by having these services at your fingertips ahead of time.
3. Apply for a merchant account. If you need to sell your items online, you will need to make sure that you have a merchant account. This will allow you to process a variety of different credit cards on your site and may increase your business significantly as opposed to accepting only check or money orders.
4. Purchase Web site design software. You have enough to do without having to learn HTML to design your site. A WYSIWYG" "What you see is what you get,"pronounced wizzy-wig" software program will allow you to visually put your site together, saving you time and effort. If you are not confident that you can design your own site, you may need to hire a professional designer to take care of this for you.
