Website Name: Choose the name of your website. Something like: youbizname.com. The name of your website is called your domain name. You can buy your domain name for $35 or we can hook you up with the best deal on domain names: www.namecheap.com Marketing Tip: You might want to gear your domain name around your customer. Something like StopYourLeakyFaucet.com could be more effective because it focuses on the problem that your client might be dealing with and would make them want to find you. Or you can have both domain names for the same website. Call us for free help with this 888-443-8720.
2.
Web Hosting: This is where your website files are stored. When you look at a website, you are getting the information from the web hosting company's server. We use www.excaliburtechnology.com It's possible to just have the files stored on your computer, but that's much more complicated and risky compared to having the files stored on a large, fast, secure, server that has back up systems to make sure your site stays up and running.
3.
Web Development: You can hire someone to design your website for you. But, you might be able to just do it yourself. As technology has grown, it has become a lot easier to build a website. You can even start out with a template where you just fill in the blanks. Some of these are free: www.freelayouts.com There are a lot of reasons why you should hire a professional, but doing it yourself is not as hard as you might imagine. The most common software for novices to build websites with is Microsoft's FrontPage. That's what we use. But, I'm told there are a lot of better options available.

Hiring Web Developers: If you are going to hire a web development company, then look for a company that knows a lot about marketing. A website is a marketing piece and most web companies don't know a lot about marketing.
5.
Web Traffic: Once you have a website you are proud of, you need to get people to look at your pretty site. There are a lot of ways to make this happen. Here is a list of the most common ways to get people to your site: http://www.excaltech.com/techbytes-webadvertise.asp
6.
Marketing Tip: This is the most critical area of website success. There is so much to learn about eMarketing. I'll just give you two pointers here. A) Write about what your reader (target market/prospect) might be experiencing from his/her point of view. B) Spend little time talking about you and spend 90% or more of your time talking about your prospect.
