WEB DESIGN
Q. What is included with your web design service?
A. Our web design service utilizes a powerful content management system called Joomla. Using this CMS gives the end user an amazing amount of control for their website. Control and the ability to easily edit your content is the main feature of our web design services. A basic web design comes with the design of the main template, unlimited pages, content placement, contact form, and a bit more. For more details on exactly what is included, and what is not you can read our article on Joomla Web Development.
Q. Is hosting included with the site design?
A. No. We do offer hosting, however it is at an additional cost.
Q. What do you need from me to get started on my website?
A. We will need payment, hosting information, pages content (in word doc or email), images, thoughts and ideas on the design.
Q. How long will it take you to design my website?
A. Turnaround time on websites is difficult to predict. The main factor is complexity, and the amount of content. Communication is key as well. The design alone doesn't take very long, its adding the content and functionality that eats up most of the time. We usually tell our clients that a basic site will take about a week, but again sometimes things come up.
Q. Do you design e commerce websites?
A. Yes, we offer shopping as an extra component in your web development. We can create a great site that will allow users to order and pay from your website. Our shopping systems mostly use paypal, but their are a couple alternatives as well.
Q. How hard is it to make changes to my website?
A. It is not hard at all! We use a CMS know as Joomla. Joomla basically gives you a backend that you can log into. Your pages are stored as articles which can be opened within a text editor. You will not have to fiddle through complex html at all. Joomla uses whats called a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) editor. This means that you will not see html, you will see the text as you see it on your site. This makes everything really easy to make changes and add your own content.
If you have a question that is not listed feel free to contact us.
Q. How many revisions come with my website?
A. Upon delivery of the initial presentation of your website, you have 5 revisions, if you require any changes. You have 3 months to use these revision, if revision are not used during the time period, it goes into maintenance plan!
Q. Skilled Graphics created our website, but I cant figure out how to add a new tab!
A. First you would create the article, within article manager. Once that is created, you need to add it to the menu. To do that you will need to login to your backend administrator and go to menu, top menu, click "new" in the top right corner. Click "articles" to link this to an article, next click "article layout", Name your menu on the left under "title" and on the far right, select the article you want to link, save, and your done.
