Every website we design is tested on various browser platforms to gain as much cross compatibility as possible. It is possible that someone may try to view your website with an outdated browser and receive some strange results. This is not usually a problem, since most browsers are free to upgrade, and the majority of your visitors will see your website through an up-to-date browser.

Generally speaking, yes. Different browsers may show minor differences, and different monitors may very colors slightly.

Many of our clients have frames on their websites. We do try, however, to use frames sparingly, since not all browsers will display them correctly and framed websites are limited in their accessibility. Unless there is a specific purpose for having frames, we usually discourage their use.

Yes, we can do all kinds of animation. We do try to keep the load time in mind though. In most cases, too many animations can make a website look cheap and home made, as well as making it slow to load. For looks, as well as load time, subtlety is the key.

It's very important that your website loads quickly. Surfers tend to get fed up waiting for slow websites to load. Large images, animations, and poor optimization can all add to the load time. We optimize our designs to make them look great, but still load fast.

Generally, text and images are easy to "steal" from a website. Other elements, such as programming are very difficult, if not impossible to steal. It has been known for unscrupulous designers to copy a design and sell it as their own. Including the copyright symbol, ©, on your website gives notice that the information is protected and that we will, if necessary, pursue legal avenues to protect the copyright of all images and text displayed on your website.

Password protecting your website is useful if you have members or subscribers. We can set up your website to only allow authorized access to parts or all of the site. There are many options that we can set up, from full automated sign-up and payment systems, to simple password protected pages.

If we host the website for you, we will send you a monthly report on server activity as part of your hosting package. This report will give you detailed information such as traffic flow, busiest days, busiest times, which keywords were used to find you, which search engines found you, etc.

Yes. You can download your visible website files using the Save or Save As feature on your browser.

Yes. Typically, our clients would rather spend their time running their businesses than maintaining and updating their website. If you prefer to maintain your website, we can program a backend to your website that will allow you or a member of your staff to make changes in text and images on your website.

Yes. We can usually redesign or freshen up your existing website more quickly, and for less money, than building one from the ground up. Send us your existing web address, and we will gladly take a look at your current website and provide you with a proposal to define the areas of your website that need improvement.

Yes. As long as we can have FTP access to the server, and the server supports the methods that we use to create websites. We cannot however, be responsible for downtime on that server, or access to server statistics.
We do, however, recommend taking advantage of one of our Hosting packages, as we offer many extras in our packages, such as traffic reports, one hour free maintenance per month, and search engine submission and marketing, at no additional charge.

Yes! We can go into the source code of your website and remove any extraneous coding that is added to your pages by these types of WYSIWIG (What You See Is What You Get) programs, and reformat or add whatever it is that you need to make your website more presentable.
