Q.
Do I need to hire a professional web designer?
You most likely know a friend, or relative, that "knows something
about computers", or "knows HTML", who could design a
website. So why hire a professional? Here are some reasons why:
The Relationship: If
you hire your niece or your best friends son to design a site for
your business and then later decide that you need to update it, you
may find it hard to hire an outside source, in fear of hurting their
feelings. Time: None of us have enough time now, so why take
time away from your business and personal life to learn how to design
and market a website? Experience: A website designer
comes with years of design experience. You will have the benefit of their
many hours of designing web sites. They have already learned what works
and what doesn't. They should also be able to help you organize your
thoughts, and make suggestions, as to what should and should not include
on your site.
Q.
What can I put on a website?
Think of the Internet as your advertising dream come true. How often
have you wished to get more information to the public, only to find
that the cost was so great that you could not afford it? Well,
now you can! You can put your company's catalog on the Web
in full color including pictures, descriptions, and prices. Or perhaps
you are a manufacturing plant and you would like to show off your new
facility. A response form, or a questionnaire, on your site will help
generate a mailing list. The options are endless with the use of color
photographs, animated graphics, sounds, whatever your imagination come
up with.
Q. What is my first step?
Your first step is to contact MyPixo at (614) 888-7496
or e-mail us at info@mypixo.com.
You can also complete our "contact us" form and we will contact you.
We will then discuss your project and put together a proposal.
Q. Should I update my website? YES! Website changes encourage
visitors to come back. If you say you are going to update and don't,
or you have dated material that is outdated, visitors will tend not
to return and will leave with a feeling a mistrust. MyPixo recommends
that you do update your site at least two times a year.
