Starting your new website will require two things: Domain name and a Web Host.
(GKMD can set up your hosting and include your domain name. We work with various web hosts to provide the best solutions in price and features for you in this area.)
1. A Domain Name: www.yoursite.com is an example of a domain name. You will need to come up with about 3-4 different domain names and we can research them to see if they are available. You can choose the same name but with a different extension like .com, .org, .net and .biz
2. Web Host: A web host is a company that will store the designed files we create that make up your website and store them on their servers. So when someone types in www.yoursite.com, immediately your website will be viewed 24 hours/7 days a week.
In planning your site, we would usually ask you these questions:
-Will you be making sales or accepting credit cards on your site?
-How many pages(sections) do you envision your site having and what are they?
-How many photos will you be using? Are they in digital format? or will you
need any stock photos from us?
-Special Features: will you need any of the following features added on your
site? Slideshows, Mailing List, eNewsletter , Contact forms. , Flash header and intro,
Chatroom/Forum or Video/Sound, music player? **For more, go to our services page.
-Do you have a particular color scheme or theme you want us to reflect?
-Do you have a logo? Will it be provided or need created?
