For Around $1.00 A Day! - A Review Of WebAlive Websites If you’ve been thinking of promoting your business online, you have probably talked to a few web designers and investigated some “ready built” web packages, as I did. But I found nothing that comes close to the instant business website package offered by WebAlive.
While you can find cheap basic websites out there, watch out for the extra monthly “fine print” charges for essential e-commerce functions and vital business features such as visitor statistics and page view tracking. You must have these features if you want a commercial site.
The cost of adding these “extras” to a “cheap” website can quickly exceed the all-in-one building and hosting WebAlive price. What’s more, WebAlive now offers a downloadable product function in its shopping cart, so you can sell e-books, software, or any other downloadable products immediately over the Web.
Even if you already have a website, WebAlive gives you a very economical and full-featured option to expand your business in a different direction by adding a new product family to your existing activities.
E-Commerce And Real Time Credit Card Processing Included!
There’s no point having a business website if you can’t sell anything from it. If you want to sell online you will need an e-commerce facility that adds value and profit opportunity to your business.
WebAlive sites come complete with a choice of secure e-commerce payment handling facilities at no extra cost. That alone can save you more than the cost of the whole website in comparison with some bank’s e-commerce set-up fees. Secure server transactions are essential to reassure your customers that they are safe doing business with you online.
And, to sell most things online you must be able to accept credit card payments. WebAlive’s e-commerce options allow you to take Visa, MasterCard and other credit card payments, the lifeblood of any online business. This enables your site to start selling and accepting payments the minute it is published to the web.
Quick And Easy To Use!
My website (you’re on it now) was prepared and ready for me to start adding content just three days after I booked it, which is truly outstanding service. The website control panel is remarkably simple to use, even for someone like me to whom a computer is still pretty much a glorified typewriter.
As soon as the site was ready, I simply clicked a link in the email notification, and the WebAlive Java script that operates the site was automatically downloaded and installed on my computer. A second link automatically downloaded and installed the site itself, complete with the control panel interface.
When I came to add content, I found it really straightforward. I wrote and organised all the content on this site myself, and as you can see, it looks fantastic. (And that’s not just my opinion, either!)
Superb Customer Service!
Even with around 200 website templates to choose from, you may decide you want a unique design. I chose to pay a bit more to obtain a customised design for my site, to get the look I had planned before I booked with WebAlive. (The design does not change the way the website software works at all.)
The designer took my sketch and instructions, built a first draft, then discussed and adjusted it in various places to give me exactly the look I wanted. He could not have been more helpful, pleasant and efficient, and I am absolutely thrilled with the result.
Every interaction I have had with WebAlive has been conducted cheerfully, efficiently, and productively. The company even puts on free training sessions for anyone who wants to travel in to Melbourne Docklands and participate. This exactly illustrates their commitment to your success.
Free Expert Technical Support!
Most users will have some “how to” questions as they get their site up and running. WebAlive offers both email and phone support on extended hours to help you if you’re stuck. I have rung a few times, and have not yet had a question that couldn’t be fully answered in plain English in just a couple of minutes.
The software can do a lot more than what is outlined in WebAlive’s promotional material. For example, I have learned how to tweak my page layout using hidden tables, and also paid to add a discussion forum to my site. And the tech support team have answered my questions quickly and clearly, every time.
Even Better, It’s Affordable!
A WebAlive site is priced at “$1.00 a day, plus GST”, in other words, $401.50 a year. That covers building, hosting, secure e-commerce and full shopping cart facilities, technical support, a massive 200MB capacity with 4GB of data allowance/transfer per month,plus ongoing upgrades to the software.
This is important, as WebAlive listens to feedback from its customers and does its best to incorporate ideas into the software to benefit every business user. (It has taken up two ideas I put in, which will be of use to others.)
It’s also reassuring to deal with an Australian company that’s equal to anything available overseas. With all this for about $400 a year, you simply can’t go wrong.
Special Offer:
WebAlive are currently offering you a fully functioning, no-obligation, 14 Day FREE TRIAL business web site!
You'll see for yourself how easy it is to manage your own site and save a fortune on maintenance fees. I'm sure you'll be as delighted as I am with the new shopping cart system that makes it super easy to do business online. To book your 14 day FREE TRIAL business website, click here.
Or if you're keen and ready to get started, simply click to go to WebAlive and buy it now. It's one of the best business investments you could make.
