Dutch Girl Web Design will design, develop, and maintain
a fully functional and dynamic internet presence
for your business by providing you
with the following services:
*DOMAIN* *HOSTING* *MAINTENANCE* *MARKETING*
DOMAIN REGISTRATION What’s In A Name
Choosing the right domain name for your business is of paramount importance. Potential clients are unlikely to be willing to trust a company who doesn’t own their own domain, especially when it comes to credit card details. Therefore, take care to choose a domain name that reflects your company, but also encourages trust and professionalism.
The other main idea to consider with domain names is making it easy for surfers to find. An obscure name is pretty useless. You should aim for a name that is quite short and quite memorable. Also take care to consider your target audience.
I offer domain consultation and registration as part of my design packages. I offer qualified advice on how best to choose a domain that will benefit your business to the greatest extent.
WEB HOSTING Don’t Underestimate Its Importance
I will provide you with the best web hosting necessary to keep your site up and running smoothly, by providing you with the highest quality web site hosting servers via contractual relationships with award winning global hosting companies. Benefits of outstanding uptime and business stability are a cornerstone of this service.
Web hosting packages range from E-mail accounts, E-Commerce shopping, to MySQL databases and much, much more. As part of my consulting services, I tailor an appropriate hosting package to meet the needs of your business. These hosting services also provide data, which I will format for you via our search engine optimization programs, to keep you informed about advanced web site statistics data on your site (monthly web site traffic, etc)
MAINTENANCE An Important Design Consideration
Web site maintenance is always necessary to assure that a web site remains in working order and is periodically updated. It is very important to understand that your web site does not have an end date. Once you start your online business you need to be aware that it is a process, not a project that ends when you upload your site.
To become successful online you need to update your web site on a regular basis or you will end up losing your customers interest. Remember it is the things that change on a web site that keeps people coming back. Event Calendars, Newsletters, Price Lists, Promotions and the like are the things that will bring customers to your site again and again.
Basic maintenance is included in my web site design price for a period of 60 days following the initial upload. Whether weekly, monthly or quarterly maintenance is what your business requires, an ongoing maintenance agreement can be negotiated based on the amount of work involved.
MARKETING A Make Or Break Strategy
A web site is a powerful way of publishing other types of content that is normally not included in conventional forms of media including testimonials, samples of your work, and images of products.
However, just having a web site is not enough. Customers need to find your site. Search engine optimization (SEO) is the one of the most important aspects of having a web site. All my sites are search engine friendly. I add “keywords” so that your web site may be found by web bots and indexes. Some designs can hurt or hamper search engine rankings and it is important when building your site that you take into consideration all the rules of S.E.O.
Please read my “Search Engine Friendly Web Design” article for a better understanding.
I will also submit your web site to the most popular free web search engines and search directories currently available as part of my web design service. There are also options to purchase additional search directories if you choose.
Your web site is an important sales tool and the address of your web site should be made known to your customers on every occasion possible. It should be placed on brochures, business cards, your letterhead, logos, signs and even your phone message. You may even want to consider a “related links” page on your site, offering reciprocal links to sites in return.
It doesn’t matter how nice your site looks if no one ever finds it!
