Custom Sites

web options, inc. designs Custom Sites to meet the unique needs of each client. Whether designed for businesses, government entities, non-profit organizations, professionals or individuals, our site designs vary from those that are very small to ones of almost any magnitude in size and complexity desired.

The custom web design process begins by meeting with our clients to understand their business and determine how best a website design will support their business strategy.

    • style
    • visual appeal
    • navigation

    • user experience

.

web options, inc. designs websites to:

  • be compatible with a variety of platforms, browsers, modems and viewer preferences,

  • load quickly, and

  • be content-rich.

We encourage your participation in the design – the extent of your involvement in the custom web design process is an option. We are flexible and will work to best accommodate your needs.

Build-Yourself Sites

Our host provides the tools with which to create a basic template driven website if a custom site is not currently in your time frame or budget. Hosting clients can create and update their own websites independently and economically.

e-Commerce Sites

The ability to accept secure credit card payments and electronic checks at an e-commerce website can increase sales dramatically and encourages impulse buying. Accepting online payments makes your business appear more established, enhances your credibility and provides your customers the comfort to purchase conveniently with their security ensured.

web options, inc. can develop your company's e-commerce site component in exactly the way you wish it to look and function. We can incorporate custom graphics, product photos and detailed descriptions of your products and services.

One can, alternatively, create an e-commerce website in-house if utilizing our hosting services with the assistance of an online wizard without any computer programming knowledge. All that is required is a merchant account with applicable credit card providers or an account with an alternative processor like PayPal or Click Bank. The e-commerce application in conjunction with the Administration Menu control center, provides online templates and forms for creating and updating webpages with text, graphics, photographs, tables and forms.

We provide one free orientation session for new clients. We also provide for-fee training sessions, tailored to a client's needs, when clients want additional assistance. However, most find that the online help documents and a Help Desk provide extensive guidance. Unlimited customer service and technical support are available from the host.

We will also be glad to work with you to align your website with your business strategy and add features that will rejuvinate your website traffic.

Affordable Prices

We set affordable prices for websites through the following steps:

  • Establish the client’s requirements for website design and schedule in context with their project budget.

  • Apply established time requirements for standard parts of the website design and development process and allow for phasing if necessary.

  • Determine, via sampling, the actual time required to design parts of the website with new features or combinations.

  • Apply applicable labor and other standard rates to the established time estimate.

web options, inc. prefers in-person proposal submission to prospective clients so that we may discuss our projected approach and pricing. Our costs are competitive due to many factors:
