You don't seem to offer
website packages like a lot of web design companies. Why not?
We don't have any standard
pricing packages as we tailor our services, technical
programming, design and consulting fees to suit our customers
unique requirements and budget. Many companies provide these
"package deals" but this has never worked for us or our
clients as no company can be easily slotted into any particular
package, based on irrelevant measures such as number of pages,
number of images, and so on. If a package only allows for example 5 pages for less than x
dollars, this may prevent you from presenting your products and
services correctly and it is better not to think in these terms.
Will you be able to put my
site to Google?
Search engines such as Google,
Yahoo, etc. work using different set of rules that constantly
change. We constantly study the search engine "game" and
apply out knowledge to the websites that we design.
Search Engine Optimization is not easy and requires some patience.
This takes time and attention to the rules that are applied by
these engines.
For clients for whom we design
and maintain the website on a monthly basis, this service is at no
additional charge after initial setup, unless a special placement
report is required.
Paid listings
Google, Yahoo, and other search engines offer guaranteed paid
listings in the Sponsored Links area of these search engines. We
can assist you with a carefully planned Pay
Per Click marketing programs.
What is your turnaround on
designing and developing a new website?
We have produced a simple website
within a week of material handover. However, on any project that
has a reasonable level of complexity, we prefer to budget at least
4 to 6 weeks for design drafts, client liaison, HTML markup,
scripting and testing.
What do I need in order to
conduct e-commerce on my site?
Presto Solutions can implement a
simple shopping cart for your site, tailored for your type of
customer and product. If you do not have a merchant account (i.e.
you cannot directly accept credit cards) we can include an
interface to third party payment systems such as Paymate
or Paypal. We
also recommend the inclusion of a PDF or similar order form to
allow people to easily order should they not wish to use online
ordering facilities.
We can also implement an online quotation system which can present
all products and variants on your site and your customers can
build a shopping list for submission to you via your website.
Once the site is up and
running, how are updates done?
Presto Solutions can provide
ongoing web
maintenance services, charged on a simple hourly fee or if the
site is suitable, we can implement a full Web based content
management system allowing staff to update the site without any
special software and via a special admin screen. Some client
choose to use web editing software such as FrontPage to edit pages
of their site.
Client needs differ and in many cases, it is actually more
cost-effective that all editing services are outsourced to Presto
Solutions, allowing us to change content carefully and with search
engine optimization in mind at all times.
What is your turnaround on
website maintenance work?
Depending on urgency, as little
as 1 to 2 hours on simple changes. More details can be found in
our Support page.
How much are your
services?
Details of our service charges
can be found in the fees
section.
