A.  A domain name such as www.yourcompany.com that is exclusive to your company offers several benefits;

  • It provides more credibility than a sub domain such as one provided by your internet service provider.
  • It means you will have a company specific email address.
  • It will be easier for customers to find you by typing your name into a browser address line.
  • If you change you internet service provider you don't need to change your domain name / website address and email address.

If you don't have a domain name we include domain name registration in all our website packages.
We will even help you select a name, check for it's availability and submit the registration for you.

Hosting is the service that makes your website available to users of the internet.

Shared hosting is the most efficient way of doing this because you share the computers and network connections required to put your website on the internet with other companies.

Website hosting packages contain many, many options and for the beginner it can be very difficult to know what to buy.

We include hosting with all our packages and provide the components that you need to make the most of putting your business on the internet.

Our maintenance service fee includes much more than a standard hosting package for about the same price.

The most successful businesses always focus on their core competencies.
This means they stick to what they know and do best.

Many small and medium business owners think that creating and maintaining a professional website is something they can do on the side while trying to focus on their own business.
They also believe they can do it cheaper if they do it themselves.

These business people are very often victim to the false economics of the "DIY" website.

Lets looks at the basics of this. The costs to "DIY" include BUT are not limited to;
  • Time for staff to learn how to program. (will they ever use these skills again?)
  • Time for staff to learn how to present on the web.
  • Time for staff to research what you need to do to get online.
  • Software licence fees in the thousands of dollars for development software.
  • Digital photography equipment.
That list alone will run into the thousands if not tens of thousands of dollars.

We offer staff with years of experience and all the hardware and software to get you online.
All this for under $1000 in our economy business website plan.

In summary, we know the fastest ways to deliver the best value website for you because this is OUR core competency.

The following are just a few good reasons to start a professional business website now;

  • Open your business 24x7, 24hours a day 7 days a week all year round.
    Not just 9 to 5 Monday to Friday. A professionally managed internet presence attracts customers whether you're relaxing at home or away for the weekend without any extra time or effort required.

  • Keep up with the competition.
    Your competitors are probably already online and are available to your customers after hours when you are not there to service them.

  • Make the most of your existing marketing efforts.
    Print advertising such as a yellow pages listing or a direct mail-out is often much more expensive than getting online. Your print media such as catalogues, yellow pages, letter heads and even your office window should all display your website address.

  • Consumers are going online for information before they buy.
    Home internet connections continue to grow and Australia now has over 50% of homes online. Consumers are now using the internet to gather information before they buy. They tend to ring companies with websites simply because they have more information about them.

  • Reduce time on customer calls by providing information on the web.
    A website can allow your customers to browse what you offer at their leisure. This is your chance to show them your professionalism and expertise without having to spend a lot of time on the phone. Your business website will efficiently demonstrate your offering and prompt customers to use your product/service rather than the competition.

Why should I update my website regularly? PDF Print E-mail

 Your website is a window into your business for your customers.

If your customers visit your site and get old information or even worse incorrect information not only might you lose them as customers but you might also be liable for their losses.

This is particularly important when you are advertising product prices and availability.

Additionally if you can provide a reason for your customers to come back to your site on a regular basis because the content is always up to date and you offer them something the competitors don't then you are likely to keep them and win more business at the same time.

At iDev we offer a maintenance plan with all our websites so you never have to worry about being up to date.
