FAQ on web
designing
What technologies and applications for web development are we experts at?
ASP, HTML, Javascript, CSS, DHTML, Frontpage, Dreamweaver, Photoshop,
Paintshop Pro, Flash, Visual Interdev, Visual Basic Core Language, VBScript,
VBA, CGI and Office applications.
What are some of the things to keep in mind when designing
an effective web site ?
There are numerous things to keep in mind when designing a good website.
For instance, after your site is on the web, you do realize that it is viewed by people
using different browsers types (MSIE or Netscape), different browser versions (MSIE 3 or
MSIE 5), different screen or monitor sizes and different types of computers
(e.g. Macintosh
or IBM compatible). If considerations to these aspects are not made while designing, the
site will look different in each case.
Can we design sites that require passwords to
access ?
Yes. We can. We usually use ASP scripts with database to do this.
Do we do e-commerce websites (or online stores)?
Yes. We do.
E-commerce sites can be created in several methods. We can explain to you all
your options to help you determine the best course of action. The solution you
pick will depend on your business needs, number of products, type of product or
service, frequency of updates, types of updates and budget.
Do visit our Porfolio page for a list of e-commerce websites we have built.
FAQ on web hosting
Web hosting is the process of taking the site that you
create on your computer and putting it on a server, to give people all over the world
access to it. A sever is a computer that belongs to a web hosting company.
Just as your products/services need a store or a warehouse or an
office space, your web site will need a hosting space on a server.
We do not host websites but we will place your site on your chosen server.
Of course, we can recommend you plenty of hosting companies and help you
choose the best for your site.
How much does it cost to host a web site ?
Web hosting comes at different prices. They range from $ 0 to $ 100's per month for most of
the sites. Why the price difference ? Mostly because, different web hosting companies
offer different packages. A package that offers you SSL account, database access, credit
card transactions plus others will cost you the high end. A free hosting service is free
because they put advertisements on your site.
What is a domain name ?
www.momocha.com is an example of a domain name. It will cost you
around US $ 35 to get your own domain name for a year.
I already have a domain name. Do I still need to pay for
web hosting ?
Hosting is a separate process and so you have to pay for hosting separately.
It is possible to find free hosting company but then there are drawbacks
to this. We would suggest free hosting only for personal sites.
Can I have my own server instead of using one that belongs
to a web hosting company ?
Yes you can do that. However, maintaining a server is a lot of work. It is cheaper and
definitely a less of hassle for you to just go with a web hosting company. If you have
staff who have enough experience with web servers, then you can definitely look into this
idea.

FAQ on e-commerce What
is an e-commerce site ?
For simplicity purposes if a web site accepts credit cards online then it is an e-commerce
site. Why should I accept credit cards on the internet ?
If you accept credit cards on the internet, your site is like a retail
store that's open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, except without any people
swiping the credit card. Research has shown that adding credit card
capabilities to a site can increase the sales by up to 70% or more. What credit cards can my site accept on the internet
?
Your site can accept all credit cards that you can use in a
retail store. Is it more expensive to have an e-commerce site
compared to having a regular business site ?
Yes. An e-commerce site involves more than just designing and hosting
a site. It involves getting special merchant account and credit card
authorizer. Even the site designing is more complex. The hosting prices
are also slightly higher. What can I sell on the internet ?
Anything. There are successful web sites that sell cars on the
internet and there are ones that sell spices. If you have access to
product(s)/service(s) that you believe are not accessible to potential
customers around the world then you could be in business on internet. I have
products/services. But I am not sure if I should go online with them ?
Contact us and we can give you a fair
evaluation on what you can expect if you were to sell or advertise them on
internet. I've been thinking about selling some products
on the internet. What are the processes involved ?
