Website Design and Internet Solutions

• What is a website?

A website is a collection of web pages that provide information or offer services on a particular topic, often a business or organization.  For a business, websites can contain relevant information for consumers, such as descriptions and photographs of products, listings of menus, prices for goods and services, business hours of operation, maps, coupons, contact information such as phone/fax/email, feedback forms, etc.

• I already advertise, so why does my business need a website? 

For lots of reasons:  A web page magnifies any existing advertising you already use such as business cards, newspaper ads, yellow pages ads, bumper stickers, flyers, etc.  Each of these forms of advertising suffers from either limited space and/or limited life.  Adding your website address on any of these forms of advertising allows a customer to learn more about your business via the Internet.  Your website is available 24-7 from around the world.  Your website can contain much more information than any of these other forms, and can include color photographs, documents, maps, etc.  A website shows that your company is serious about business, and recognizes the millions of consumers that now expect a web presence.  See our Top Reasons to Have a Website for a complete rundown on this question!

• How much does a web page cost?

iEnterprises Online offers several Website Design packages to choose from.  For as little as $100/year, your business/organization can have a customized website that puts you on the Internet.

•  How long will it take for it to be on line?

When you are ready to have iEnterprises Online create a website for you, we will personally visit your business/organization to talk with you about how you would like to tailor your website, and to obtain all information that we need (photos, products, descriptions, etc).  Your website is typically online and operational 1 week after we receive all required information from you. 

•  What is a web portal?

A web portal is a website containing a collection of websites along a common theme, with associated services thrown in.  A web portal is often the starting point for one’s use of the Internet.  A web portal may also be an entry point for information on a particular topic.  For example, iEnterprises Online has developed OnlineBrevard.com as a web portal providing a business directory for Brevard County, Florida.  At OnlineBrevard.com, users can search for businesses of certain types and or locations via an integrated database.  OnlineBrevard.com offers “bulletin board” space for business coupons, and rotates part of its front page for a “Featured Business of the Week”. Users can also get easy access to weather, stock market, maps, and related information. 

•  Is the web portal extra?

No, businesses or organizations in Brevard County, Florida that use iEnterprises Online to build their website are eligible for OnlineBrevard.com’s bulletin board” space for business coupons and turns as “Featured Business of the Week”.

•  What if there is a problem with my web page?

iEnterprises Online will repair the problem as soon as it is detected, likely within a day.  For example, if you business phone number changes, simply call or email us with the correction, and we’ll update your webpage promptly.

•  What if I want to change my web page?

Occasional changes are no problem, and are done at no charge.  Part of the benefits to iEnterprises Online’s Website Design packages is that the business owner need not be a programmer.  Since iEnterprises Online handles all the web design and changes all for its very competitive prices, daily/weekly changes are not part of the common design packages.  That being said, iEnterprises Online can negotiate a custom design package if you feel that you will need very frequent changes to your website.

•  What if I don’t like the way the web page is designed?

Then we’ll work to get it right!  You’ll have a reasonable idea of what it will look like before our visit to your business is done, since we will show you examples of our formats and styles.  Once the website is complete, you pay for your Website Design package. 

•  Is there a one-time cost or is there an annual fee to renew the web page?

The Website Design packages are based on an annual fee.    Your initial Website Design package will be good for year.  You may take your website offline at any time during the year, but your initial payment will not be refunded.  After 1 year, we hope that you will want to renew your website for additional years. Discounts are available for multi-year purchases.

• How robust is the web hosting for my website?

iEnterprises Online uses Bluehost web hosting for its sites.  Bluehost hosts websites on Quad Processor Servers running customized Apache Web Server software.  Equipment is supplied with UPS and diesel generator backup power, Denial of Service protection, 24/7 network monitoring, and an OC-48 Internet backbone connection.
