Consultation Checklist

Congratulations!           Your decision to introduce your business or information on the Internet places you in the highest percentage of growth, development and communication in recent history.           Before we sit down to discuss your website for the first time, it will be helpful for you to consider the following: Content: What do you want your Web Site to feature? Who do you want your Web Site to target? Where do you want your Web Site to be hosted? How will you benefit from your Web Site? When do you want your website to go "online"? Visual Appeal: Page Layout Number of Pages Colors, Textures, Graphics Animation, Video, Sound Interaction: External Links Forms Guest Book Counter/Stats Budget: Domain Registration Web Site Hosting Site Maintenance If you have a favored style in mind for your Web Site, it will be very helpful to sketch the layout with placement of graphics, photos and text, or write out the design description in detail. If you have color preferences in mind, and examples available when discussing your site but it isn't necessary to choose a specific design. With your logo and concept, our web page designers will effectively use the elements provided to create a site which will convey your content accurately and appropriately for the web medium. Things to keep in mind: The content of your site makes the statement for your business. What it says is every bit as important as how it looks. The more readable it is, the more the viewer learns about your product or service.           Choose a readily available, common font and size. If the font is unavailable on the viewer's computer "default" will be viewed, often Times Roman. Arial Times Roman Verdana Terminal Courier Modern Comic Sans MS Brush Script           Select colors that do not overshadow your statement.           Opt for a direct, memorable logo that loads quickly.           Limit each page length to three screens of information, maximum.           Focus on your product or service versus graphic gimicks.
