Website Design and Support – Making Ownership Easier
Typically, the first question we are normally asked is how much is the cost of a website. We are not trying to avoid the question but website size and design complexity can vary enormously.
As a guide a basic website with five pages and one Contact Us form would costs £310 in the first year – including hosting and support. However, please complete our simple Free Quote form to get a better idea of costs for the website you have in mind.
We offer a site authoring service where we can provide all of your site content or we can work using a blend of your input and ours. This can be a great time saver for you, but if you want to supply all of your content, that is fine. We will simply edit this raw information to make it suitable for web publication.
We will happily provide any training you may need, update the site content and maintain the site’s software.
We include this “safety net” service, defined in our Terms & Conditions, as part of our design service. This service is built into any quote we provide and is NOT an additional cost.
This is an important part of the website (and your email). This is the identity by which your customers will know you. Think long and hard before you commit to a name or names.
A domain name is a sign that you can use to point to your business website wherever it is hosted. If someone enters your domain name in their browser from anywhere in the world the connection will be made across the Internet to your website page.
You never own a domain name it is always rented so if payment is not kept up then it goes back on the market.
The process of buying a domain name is very simple and cheap even when you buy the more expensive Top Level Domains (TLDs) like a .com.
We would recommend that you purchase your domain name from companies like:
“Web Hosting” is a service provided by many companies who offer a physical location for the storage of web pages and files. An e-mail / web-mail service is usually included. Web hosting companies rent physical disc space on their computers (called servers) allowing web pages to be viewed via the Internet. The hosting packages vary considerably in features, capacity and of course price.
MIP Websites include their own hosting package and associated e-mail services as part of any website design project they undertake.
