Simple Websites

SIMPLE WEB SITES

You supply a sketch and spec. of how you want your pages for your website to look and I supply you with a basic site for £50 per page and show you for an additional charge how to access and maintain your site for yourself. Or I can undertake the task on your behalf.

Basic hosting for your site with the service provider I use is roughly £100.00 per year.
You need to register your domain name via the provider I use or transfer it to them.
Giving a price of £100 p/a for hosting plus annual domain name registration plus £50 per page I supply.

I work with simple, easy to use basic html code. This is not a programming language and it is flexible and fast. No need for style sheets or java script.

You can maintain the site yourself with ease or ask me to do the job for you. You would soon gain skill in making your own additional pages.

I would store a copy of the whole site as originally provided on dvd at no charge so that if you decide to manage your own site and loose your own back up I could email you a replacement.

The site would be compatible with whichever future direction you would want to take. So as your business grows your full service web designer could easily translate your first basic site however you choose to develop the site.

If you want to do the whole thing yourself there are free service providers such as weebly.com which I use to store some of the images I use on this website. Weebly provides standard free templates.

My service gives you more flexibility and self expression and is a low cost site for a small business. You can easily add merchant services provided by your bank or upgrade to an ecommerce option with the hosting service provider I use. The site can be tested and proof read offline before it is switched live to coincide with your marketing plans.


TO DESIGN AND BUILD YOUR OWN WEBSITE and retain copyright of the coding you use to create the look of your page visit The w3schools html tutorial website. The site developers say certain tags are deprecated, but that does not mean they are "forbidden" or illegal or incompatible with ALL browsers. You will note I use the deprecated tags on this page and site to design the look I want for this page. This site was developed using basic html tags in notepad and displayed in Internet Explorer. IE5, then IE7, and now I am modifying the pages to get the look I want with IE8 integrated into Windows XP on a 64-bit machine.

The so-called deprecated tags are: U, for underline; font, which can refer to colo(u)r or size (recall that your internet options allow you to alter the size of text); and center (US spelling), denoting where on a page text or a table is positioned. Center attached to the paragraph command overrides the word center attached to the table command. At least it does with IE on my machine. There is nothing wrong with these "deprecated" tags. They are quite safe to use. I suspect they are "deprecated" only because if not used precisely page designers do not get exactly what they expect. Nor do you need a slash after the line break command.

To save time for your business do please call to discuss how I might help you develop at very reasonable UK prices your original business presence on the web, and in a manner easily understood by yourself. My aim is to give you ownership and understanding of your web presence.
