| Q. 03 |
What information do you need from me to get started? |
| Ans: |
Ideally we need 4 pieces of information from you: |
| |
| 1) |
A domain name - such as www.yourwebsite.co.nz. You can check to see if your preferred name is available using the search form on this website: http://www.1and1.co.uk |
| 2) |
Website content broken down into sizeable chunks of information, e.g. Products, Prices, Examples, Contact details. We can work with printed materials such as your company brochures but this will take longer than using electronic text as we will have to retype all the text. Images can be provided in printed or digital format, we will optimize them to look good and download quickly on your website. |
| 3) |
Target audience - an idea of who your customers are and who you are hoping to attract online will help us to display the wording and design in an appropriate manner. |
| 4) |
Your company logo. If you don't have one, we can advise a suitable way to brand your website or recommend a reputable logo design company. |
