How much does it cost to make a web site?

 

The cost for building a Web site can vary depending on these things:

 

How much content will be in the site?

 

What do you want to site to do?

 

How can you merge your marketing strategy with the site?

 

Will you supply all or some of your websites's content, ie. copy, photos, graphics; or will you require the services of our team?

 

Do you need security features?

 

 

These are only some of the factors we consider when determining the best and most cost-efficient way to construct your Web project. Be leery of "package" deals. You could end up paying more by the time you've added all the options. Instead, contact Virginia Web Design to request a detailed proposal that includes cost, a time frame, and suggestions for integrating your website into your internal processes and marketing campaign.

 

 

The average is four to twelve weeks depending upon the scope of your project, but we do strive to meet deadlines

Yes. We can create your site to be self-maintaining, dynamic, and powerful. Contact Virginia Web Design to discuss ways to make your Web site do more than provide information. Your site can take orders, provide invoices, information, and more. Also, we can give you login information for you to make changes to your site.

 

 

Bring us anything you want displayed on your website such as images, text and graphics or provide nothing at all. Just tell us what concept or images you have in mind. We have photography, copywriting, and content development services - everything needed to build your site with ease.

 

 

Web site design refers to the visual layout of the site. Development involves creating the programming code needed to perform online ordering, take payments, obtain information through forms, site searches, calculators, and more.

 

 

At a minimum, these are the requirements to open an online store:

 

Professional Website with E-commerce Shopping Cart capabilities.

 

Products. Either your own merchandise or goods that can be drop shipped.

 

Merchants ability to accept and process credit cards online or manually.

 

SSL Certificate to encrypt and securely collect credit card information from your website.

 

Reliable E-Commerce website hosting.

 

 

 

 

The number one preferred online marketing strategy for a website is what the industry refers to as Search Engine Optimization (SEO). SEO is a strategy to get your website to the top of the results pages on internet search engines such as Google, MSN, and Yahoo. The idea is to create your pages so that your site appears in the first page or two of search engines for your targeted key phrases or search terms.

 

We wish we could tell you that there was a esoteric secret to SEO and all it takes is a few magical passes over your existing web site to make it happen but that is just not the case. There are a few things designers can do to make your site more search engine friendly but the main thing is to keep your site original with unique text and concepts. Incoming links to your site from other sites can give you better search engine results.

 

 

 

 

Just as you have a physical resident address, you have a unique internet address, your domain name.

 

In the following example: www.yourcompany.com, your domain name and website address are one and the same.
