When in need of a web design, but have no clue about the typical web design process, I am quite certain that you must be feeling a bit overwhelmed about what to expect.

Let’s talk a bit about what questions you may want to ask a potential design firm before they get started on your website.
- “How much is this going to cost?” Of course you want to know that! Be sure the designer gives you a consultation, which allows you a sneak preview on what they will be
able to do for YOU. You want your designer to be personal with you, not general. Read more... - Benefits of Web Hosting and Choice of a Web Host

Well let me start this way, a lot of people don’t know why we need web hosting packages, some people feel web hosting ids just another Internet thing, while others feel web hosting is an opportunity for some people to make out something i.e. money making.

One of the most controversial topics surrounding web hosting is the practice of overselling bandwidth, and rightfully so. The practice of overselling has enormous potential for disaster – ask any webmaster who has ever woken up to a cold, unforgiving “Bandwidth Exceeded” message where his or her site should be. The risk of such outages is all too real, and the cleanup effort for network bandwidth outages is a long and arduous process.
Unfortunately, it is a risk that every webmaster must take. The nature of the web hosting business does not allow you to eliminate the risk, only to mitigate it to the best of your ability. In this article, we’ll explore the relationship between overstated bandwidth claims and website downtime. Read more... - Web Site Design Essential to Business
-
Whatever business you're in, it's essential to have a presence on the World Wide Web. Your business web site moves your company into the global economy and provides your customers or industry with the information and service that they're seeking. Without a web site, a business loses its competitive edge; many potential clients either search the Web when seeking a company with which to do business, or review a company's web site prior to making their final selection.
Although a Web presence is essential, few companies have the in-house expertise necessary to undertake web site design or web hosting. Unless a company is heavily into e-commerce, it typically doesn't have technical personnel on staff. As a result, businesses must contract out services ranging from registering a domain name to web site design to web hosting. Read more...

If you need a web designer, but have no clue about the typical web design process, I am quite certain that you must be feeling a bit overwhelmed about what to expect. As web designers, we oftentimes have a myriad of roles to fill when working with their clients, but as the client, you always have a right to know the complete design process up front. Let’s talk a bit about what questions you may want to ask a potential design firm before they get started on your website. 1.)“How much is this going to cost?” Of course you want to know that! Be sure the designer gives you a consultation, which allows you a sneak preview on what they will be able to do for YOU. You want your designer to be personal with you, not general. 2.)Your designer needs to know the general PURPOSE of your site. What is your main goal? Who is your audience? Will there be interactivity, collaboration, or e-commerce on your website? You should ask the designer if he or she has the capabilities of designing a site that would suit your purpose and mission. 3.)Ask for a contract to review. Take a few days to look over the contract before signing. 4.)Does the designer ask you what YOU like? Your designer should ask you about your favorite colors on the web, what websites you do or don’t like, and why. Also they should make sure they discuss with you any features that you find unappealing and take note of your opinions. 5.)Who will own the copyrights to the finished product? Make sure you find out whether or not your designer takes full copyrights of the website. Many times designers will also want to use your website designs as part of their portfolio. They should let you know this in advance. 6.)Will your designer also host your site? Make sure you find out how your site will be published and which company will provide your hosting services. How often will you need to make hosting payments and when? Who will secure your domain name, and does this come with hosting? These are all questions to consider when working with a web designer. As you become familiar with the person you are working with, it will become easier to detect his or her style, and be able to communicate effectively with them. As a designer, I can tell you that we wear many different hats and work with many different people on a daily basis…but as the client you will ALWAYS have a right to ask questions and expect reasonable answers. In your search for a trustworthy web designer, be sure to ask the questions above, and I’m certain you’ll locate the designer with the right answers for you.
