Web-Redesign

Web Hosting

Most people new to the web don't understand these basic fundamentals. In order to get your website on the internet you must have a registered domain name and a home or host for that domain name. With that domain name comes numerous options depending on the host. Some hosts only offer a home and for your domain name and nothing else while others offer a wide range of things such as unlimited downloads and bandwidth, free templates, etc. If you host with us, we offer the best solutions at the most reasonable price. We offer our customers three options.

  1. They can find their own host (not recommended)
  2. They can allow us to host it (recommended)
  3. They can use a host we recommend if they don't want us to host it (never happens this way though)

Domain Name Registration and Management

As previously mentioned, it is crucial that you get the right domain name for your purpose. What your domain name is can also have a bearing on getting higher rankings in the search engines. There are several choices in this regard as well.

----> yourdomainname.com

----> yourdomainname.org

----> yourdomainname.net

----> yourdomainname.info

----> yourdomainname.mobi

----> yourdomainname.us

When you purchase hosting with us, we include one domain name in the price. Domains have to be renewed with the registrar annually and your information as the domain owner is made public. If you want to keep that private, you can purchase a privacy package to keep that information hidden. We also suggest purchasing additional domains and pointing them to your website to aid in rankings on the search engines.

Search Engine Optimization

(SEO) Remember a search engine the tool used to search for your website domain name. For example if you are on google and you click search and type in a word or phrase, google uses its search engine to look for all the web pages that use that text. All search engines, and there are thousands of them, rely on other tools called spiders, indexes, and robots. These tool constantly comb the web to make sure websites are being searched or banned. That's right, banned. A poorly constructed site, or an infected site can be seen as dangerous and won't even show up in the search engine. The best way to avoid this is to have your web site built by a professional who knows how to write the code in such a way that most search engines accept it as authentic and not dangerous.

A second aspect that many people don't realize is that your website must be submitted to each search engine to be catalogued and indexed and that it must be done frequently to keep it current in the rankings. There are a lot of variable involved which is why you should hire professional firm to build it. Some of the things looked for by the search engine are:

----> Title
----> Description
----> Keywords
----> Author
----> URL Content
----> Copyright Info
----> Published By Info
----> Googlebot archival
----> Distribution settings
----> Rating Setting
----> Revisit Schedule
----> Robots ID File
----> Spiders ID File
----> Scripts ID File

W3C Compatibility

We don't want to leave any physically challenged internet surfers out of our design features either. That is why the majority of our sites are constructed using the recommended International standards as set forth by the World Wide Web Consortium better known as W3C. The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) develops interoperable technologies (specifications, guidelines, software, and tools) to lead the Web to its full potential. W3C is a forum for information, commerce, communication, and collective understanding. If our clients request it, for an additional fee we can certify that their website is compliant with the W3C standards for Markup Validation (HTML, XHTML, DHTML). We can also certify that if Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) are used that they meet the latest CSS validation standards.
