blue sky designs talks about domains, content management systems and more!
sometimes, for a small- to mid-sized business, the hardest thing about having a web site designed is knowing where to begin. with blue sky designs, we'll guide you through the web site design process and handle everything for you. in the meantime, here's a few answers to some questions you might have...
do you have other questions? Call us at 719.448.0696 or email us at info@blueskydesigns.net for a free consultation.
how much does a web site design cost?
the cost depends on many factors, including size, complexity, interactivity and how many special features you want. email us for a proposal!
how do i get a domain name?
email us and give us your top 5 choices for names and we'll check to see if they are available!
how long will it take before the site is up?
that answers depends on the complexity of your site. a small site may only take a few weeks; a larger site may take between 6-12 weeks. much of it depends on how quickly you are able to supply us with content. we can work with you to make sure the site is up as soon as possible. once we begin on the site, we can usually have a graphical template to show you in a couple of weeks, depending on our work load.
what's the first thing i need to do?
first, we'll meet with you to determine what you want on your web site. we can suggest a basic outline based on your business to help you get started. then we'll put together a proposal based on your company's needs and present it for your approval. once we agree on a proposal, blue sky designs will begin.
depending on the size of the site, we can have a graphical template ready for your approval within a couple of weeks. once you approve the design, we will proceed to program the site. in the meantime, you'll be gathering content for the web site for us. once the site is programmed and all the content is added, we'll show the site to you for final approval. when you're happy with the site, we'll train you on the content management system, tie up the loose ends, register the site with the search engines and then your site is complete and ready for business!
will my site be listed with the search engines?
of course! we'll take care of that for you. we register your site with the top search engines used by most consumers. don't panic if your site does not show up immediately in the search engines. sometimes, it takes a couple of months with the busier engines. although we can't guarantee your placement with the engines, we know lots of handy programming tricks to give your site a better chance at ranking for your desired search phrases!
what's a content management system and do i need one?
 a content management system allows you to update and edit your site on your own without needing to know any programming. we can add a secret "back door" area to your web site that only you know about. you'll enter a password to access the area and will be met with a menu of all the sections of your web site. you just choose the section you want to update and make the changes in the entry screens. it's as simple as that. your web site's content is stored in a database that quietly runs underneath the site. you can edit your site as often as you wish. you can also add pages yourself, and add as many as you like!
will you give me some free advice?
sure thing. we offer a free consultation to anyone who asks. let us take a look at your current site and suggest ways it can be improved. or, if you don't have a site, we'll explain what it takes to get one. either way, it's free. so give us a holler!
