How do I get started? What is the plan man?
First you will need to identify what type of website you want. Next it is important to understand the visitors/customers which you will target. If you are still unsure, you can always Contact Nechstar and we will help with a consultation. Before getting started, it may be a good idea to look at some other websites that you may like or might be similar to what you want. Also, think about the information that you want to make available to your visitors/customers. Then, give some considerable thought to the color scheme, logo, photographs, and main content. These are all important factors in building a great website.
How do I get my website maintained regularly?
You have enough to worry about! Let Nechstar help. We offer a hassle free website maintenance service and our turnaround time for basic image and content update is usually completed within a 12-24 hour period. The site maintenance service is a monthly fee of $49 and there are no lengthy contracts or hidden fees.
Will my website be placed high in the search engines?
This is dependant on how much direct competition exists on the internet. We offer several SEO bundles ranging in price to give you the best chance at achieving high rankings. Although there are no guarantees, everything will be done to optimize your website by embedding meta tags and keywords, as well as utilizing alt tags, headers and placing special wording in strategic places on your webpage so that you have a good chance of ranking high in the most popular search engines.
How do I get a domain name?
Your domain name is like a street address. That's what everyone will use to find your webpage. Getting the right domain name is imperative and a bit challenging because your first choice may already be taken. That's why it's good to jot down 8 or 10 ideas. Make sure your "domain name" is short and catchy. It should be easy to read when printed and it should also be easy to remember when seen in an advertisement. If possible, as part of the domain name, it should have the main key word that would be used to search to find a website like yours. We offer this service for you at an additional charge; however, you can always choose to complete this task independently.
Make A Payment
Is there an initial deposit?
Yes. Prior to starting a web site we will require an initial deposit of 50% or a minimum of $100 whichever is greater. Final Payment of the website will be requested prior to the website being uploaded to your host.
How to make a payment?
Payments are requested via Check or Paypal, Visa, Mastercard, American Express, or Discovercard. Upon receipt of a payment we will initiate the preliminary analysis of your web site (including SEO if required). To make a payment, click on the secure PayPal purchase button.
What We Need From You
Webpage Content
The text for each page will be identified during the initial consultation, the number pages you will need and whether or not you have existing material to fill those pages. We will expect content in the form of a computerized format such as Microsoft Word, Open Office, or just a plain text editing program like Windows Notepad. In the event that you don’t have any content or feel that it is better left to a professional writer, we offer a copywriting service that will be billed at $49 per page.
Logo, Graphics, or Artwork
The best possible method for providing graphics is to supply electronic images (i.e. jpg, gif, tif, png etc). Alternatively, we do offer graphic design services and can help in choosing the right logo, graphics, or artwork for your website.
Template Approval
Once the plans are under way, the first major milestone is the website template design approval. Nechstar will design your template in preparation for text and pictures, and will provide you with several opportunities to review the design, and approve it prior to moving on with the development. We do this to let you, the customer, become involved hands-on giving a sense of prideful ownership.
