How to buy a website

Everyone will tell you that any business needs a website, but for an establish company it's not an easy step to make. Even if you know your way around a pc and use the internet, when it comes to commissioning a site it can quickly become a bewildering array of choices and decisions.

From which technology to use, what your website is trying to achieve and how much to spend and deciding on the right company to use. You will have to make the right decisions or you could end up with a white elephant and a sour taste in your mouth. Get it right though and you can have a public front end which promotes your business 24/7 and can generate substantial income and even save you time and money by streamlining the way your business works.

We understand that this is often done while you are busy, which is why you need a site , or when things are quiet and funds are not what they should be and you are hoping that a website can help improve the business.

So we are happy to meet and advise you on all these matters and will even tell you if we think it's a bad idea! We would rather turn a job down than build it and watch it fail. However before things go that far, have a look through the checklist below and it will get you started in the right direction.

  •  Do you need your website to sell products and take money online?
  •  Do you have the ability to take credit card payments -a merchant account ?- or will you need one.
  •  Do you already own a domain name, and have access to move it to a new host?
  •  Do you have an exisiting database that you need to connect to the site?
  •  Can you supplier provide references and testimonials of CURRENT clients who will talk to you?
  •  Can they prove that they have built similar sites, you don't want to be the developers guinea pig.?
