Design, Implementation and/or Maintenance of Your Web Site

Domain Name Registration

A Domain Name is the name by which you are known on the Internet, for example, www.mybusiness.com

Your first step to establishing a presence on the 'net should be to carefully choose and register your Domain Name. A name may contain only letters, numbers and the hyphen or underline characters. Spaces are not permitted. 

Your Domain Name should be chosen to reflect your company or business name, and MUST be unique. Ease of entry is important, so keep it as short as possible! At Questra Graphics we have years of experience of  helping our clients choose and register Domain Names. 

If you have not yet registered a Domain Name for your website, we will be happy to arrange this for you. Currently we charge an initial service fee of $40 plus an annual Domain Name Registration fee of $35. 

Maintenance

A website is a live entity, and should not be allowed to go stagnant. Styling and technologies change from year to year, and old websites no longer attract attention. As required we can update the look of your site to reflect current trends, or make use of new technologies to perfect your websites ease of use.

Additionally we can :

bullet

Perform daily or weekly updates for those websites whose contents or inventory change on a regular basis.

bullet

Add or change contact information

bullet

Add or replace newsletters

bullet

Add special promotions

bullet

Include seasonal messages

Visibility

There is no point in having a website if you can't be found! This involves two areas of consideration: What you can do, and what we can do for you. 

YOU should ensure that all future advertising literature should clearly state your new Domain Name. This includes all your business stationery, (letterhead, business cards, invoices, envelopes) as well as printed advertisements, and Radio or TV commercials. Additionally you could consider advertising your website through Bumper Stickers, on your company vehicles, or on employee uniforms and badges. The more often they see or hear your website name, the more likely it is that a potential customer will remember it!

WE will ensure while programming your website that it is "findable" on the web through the following means:

bullet

"Keywords" - these are words that may be typed into any Search Engine to help locate your site, and should be very carefully selected. Many Search Engines use these Keywords to locate sites that meet your search criteria.

bullet

"Description"  - a well-expressed Description should be built-in to the non-visible programming language of your web pages. Many Search Engines use the Description to locate sites that meet your search criteria.

bullet

"Title" - the name that appears at the top of your "browser" screen should be explicit as well as concise. Many Search Engines use the Title to locate sites that meet your search criteria.

bullet

"Textual Content" - The actual text on each page is important. It is not enough to have fancy graphics and a beautifully designed logo unless the words on the page describe what you do. Many Search Engines use the Textual Content  to locate sites that meet your search criteria.
