We have geared this system for someone with some computer familiarity. If you know how to access the Internet, send email and use Microsoft Word you will most likely be comfortable with the tools involved. At our Master Control panel, you can easily add and edit your pages or request support at any time. Additional assistance, design help or tutoring can be purchased if needed. Create a home page as your central dashboard. From there you have an unlimited amount of pages you can add – the content is all your own. You can include a page with your company’s mission and history, more thorough information about your services or even incorporate a shopping cart to make online sales! These are blank canvases so you can be creative. Should you want advice on what to include, give us a call and we’ll connect you to a web designer who can help you best utilize your space. Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is the process of increasing the volume of traffic to your website from search engines through the use of target keywords. Our site builder guides more visitors to your site by allowing you to select these words to represent your products and services. This way, web users who search for what you offer will have a higher chance of navigating to your site. We won’t leave you feeling overwhelmed. When you register for a website you also get a tutorial and a detailed manual that explains all the mechanics of building your website. A full audio training is also available on our website any time of day along with a database of Frequently Asked Questions and other resources. If you’re looking for live support, give us a call and we’ll overcome any challenge you’re experiencing by scheduling a tutorial. As long as it isn’t already in use, you can select a web address with your company name in it and register your domain with a reliable outside hosting company. Once you have done this, no other website builder can create a site with your specific address. We will host your domain so you can start building your live website. You may feel you have a lot invested in your existing email address but we can help you with the transition over to a professional one that includes your company name. If you’re using email addresses from third-party email providers like AOL, Google, Yahoo!, etc, we strongly encourage you to convert to domain-specific addresses right away. A professional email address can accomplish a great deal more – you’ll be promoting your website and projecting a more powerful image of your company! If your company already has a logo that your clients have come to recognize, you can create a more official-looking website by incorporating it on to each page. If you haven’t created a logo for your site we recommend that you do, whether it be by choosing a stock image with your company name or contacting a designer to craft something for you. Our website builder has an extensive database of dynamic images you can use for free on your website or you can customize your pages with your own images by easily uploading them on to the system. We also have over fifty banners to choose from and you can choose any color combination for backgrounds, fonts, etc. We can also connect you to a graphic designer who can help you create the look and feel of your site. You can keep track of how many visitors you are getting in a given time period. When you make changes on your website, you can use the trackability feature to see if you have increased traffic to your site and how long a particular page is viewed. This advantageous tool also allows you to view which pages are viewed most often so you can determine what your visitors are most interested in and how you can improve your site. |
