Frequently Asked
Questions
What is the total
cost involved with a company Web site?
A web site
needs to be planned from the start with an idea of content and
layout, followed by design and programming. Then you need a Web
server to host your web site files on the Internet. As an analogy,
we can design a wonderful phone for you, but you need to hook up
with the telephone company to use it. With this in mind,
Yurgosky.com also provides web
hosting services to connect your web site with the rest of the
world!
Rest assured, Yurgosky.com will not only design
your web site, but will assist you in taking all the steps to
getting your site on the Internet. Each site's cost will depend on
the type of site, and how you want to present your organization or
business on the Internet. Will your site be about corporate
information, or perhaps an online store to sell your products
worldwide?
How much does
Yurgosky.com charge for
designing and developing my Web site?
Yurgosky.com will give a free
estimate after our initial consultation, depending on what you
require for your Web site. Usually, if you are unsure what you want
and have to start on a tight budget, we can recommend a "starter
site" that will at least get your basic company information, logo,
and contact information in Web format. You can always have us add to
this site in the future. Yurgosky.com normally charges on an hourly
basis and/or per-project basis, depending on the type of project
required.
The pricing greatly depends on the type of site you
want for your company. This can vary from basic "business card on
the web" sites to detailed corporate informational sites. Also, you
may have products you need to sell online, involving work with a
solid e-commerce solution.
We feel that offering you
"cookie-cutter" layouts at static prices will not help fill your
company Web site needs. We do not take the "assembly line" approach
to web design, but rather a "one-on-one" approach to place a
quality, informative Web site on the Internet.
What is a
company domain name? Do I need one?
A company
domain name allows web browsers to link to your site. Each web site
has a unique IP address (for example, 200.134.10.5). To make it easy
for people to browse the web, domain names were created to link to
these addresses. Common examples include www.nepabizlink.com
or www.psychogolf.com. With domain names, you don't have to
memorize a set of numbers to get to a particular web
site.
InterNIC, the governing agency for all domain
names in the U.S., charges a flat $70 fee for the first two years to
register a name, and $35 per year thereafter. Why do it? It gives
your company a professional presence on the internet. It also helps
with name recognition of your company on the Internet. Customers and
prospects tend to remember your web address when it is related to
your company, rather than a sub-address assigned to you by for
personal pages (for example, "www.yurgosky.com/~mycompany.html").
Many names are being snapped up fast. If you are not yet
ready to build your web site, but have definite plans to do so, we
recommend you reserve your domain name right away.

help?
Sure! During our initial consultation, we can
determine if your site has broken links, outdated information,
poor HTML coding (slow or buggy), ease of navigation, and more.

product brochure into a fully-optimized shopping cart system. Yurgosky.com
wants to help you
