Question about web page designers….10 pts BEST ANSWER!!!?

Posted by admin on June 15th, 2010 and filed under web page designers | 6 Comments »

My dad is considering getting his own website and domain for his company because he thinks he may be able to get more job offers. He does concrete work. I was looking for a company that’d be able to help us get started and I found a website that’s called hit web design..has anyone ever heard of it? If so, is that a good company?

This is the link for their site

http://www.heritagewebdesign.com/web-design-and-writing/?gclid=CJel_8jjkaICFRYhnAodMywRjg

We would be getting the basic start up package which they said would cost roughly $239 and a monthly fee of $19.99 for hosting.

Is there any other web page design company that you would recommend…if it matters we’re in the chicagoland area. Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated, thanks in advance!

Hi!

Their hosting is very expensive.

I build my first website from scratch and paid only for hosting. ($3.50 a month).

I am sure your dad can run the website himself and not too pay too much for hosting.

I use several hostings but we prefer and recommend this one:

http://tinyurl.com/2fl5deu

They have been there since 1998. So they offer great features and support + very reliable and affordable.

They also register domain names. If you register a domain name and buy their hosting, your domain name is FREE.

So here are my steps when I started my first website:

1 Come up with an idea of your website.

2 Register your domain name.

I use this provider:

http://tinyurl.com/2fl5deu

As I said before, if you register a domain name and buy their hosting, your domain name is FREE.

3 Choose a Web Host

Since they give a free domain name, I buy their hosting.

http://tinyurl.com/2fl5deu

Now they have a promotion: Only $3.50 a month.

4 Design your Web Pages

I find free website templates with help of Google search.

For example:

http://www.freelayouts.com/websites/html-templates
http://www.freewebsitetemplates.com/

Then I edit them with Kompozer http://www.kompozer.net/download.php , a free WYSIWYG web editor.

5 Upload your templates and files to your website

I use http://filezilla-project.org FileZilla FTP Client. It’s FREE!

6 Test Your Website

I use these two major browsers: Internet Explorer and Firefox.

7 Share your website with your friends and colleagues!

Good Luck!
