5. What do you need from me to build a website?
As much information as possible. We need to know who you are, what you do, where you are.

If you have a logo or some photographs for your website we need the images to be of high quality and preferably in a format such as "JPEG". Otherwise we can design a logo or take photographs for your website.

6. How do you calculate your costs to build a website?
Each project we undertake is different from the last. However, a number of factors are taken into consideration to determine our costs, in particular the size and complexity of the website, together with the graphics and pictures we need to create.

7. How do I register my website with search engines?
Most search engines give you a link on their home page to add your website. However, even when building a combination of features into your website it's not easy to come top in search results. Hence, you can pay companies to do the work for you often with guaranteed results. This is not an additional service that we offer at the moment although we are happy to provide some support and assistance if necessary.
