I've already bought Hosting... What do I need to do? |
Don’t worry. We can work around the hosting that you have bought, although we recommend that you seek advice before buying hosting. Just because it is the cheapest, doesn’t mean it will do what you need it to do. For more advice on Hosting, contact us here... |
How long will it take for you to make my website? |
The time it takes to make a website varies between the packages, and can sometimes take longer or shorter to complete. We can only give an estimate to how long it would take to make your website, although if we can see that it will take a while to get the website up and running, we will put a holding page onto your server, so that people can get your contact details, and are aware that a new website is coming. We have completed rushed jobs in the past, but it is best to have something there that does the job quickly, that then is built on by one of our team. |
What do I write on my website? |
What you write on your website is totally upto you. We have the details of a recommended copy writer, who will write all the content for your site. Your advisor will assist you in writing the correct text, but can’t write it for you. For more information about Copy Writing, contact us here... |
Do I get emails with my website? |
Yes. Emails are available with most hosting companies. It is usual to have webmail access, or you can link your emails to a software package, for example Microsoft Outlook.
