1. Isn't it costly?
Not at all. Compared with traditional advertising
such as the Yellow pages, a website is far cheaper. Unlike a static
advert, a website reaches a global audience and can be continually
changed to meet the ongoing needs and requirements of your business.
2. My
website is a waste of time?
Merely having a website will not benefit you - it must be actively
promoted in order to gain site visits. A good effective design
will then convert visitors to your site into customers. Bluewater
Webs design websites that will become a valuable asset to your
business.
3. Why aren't I
appearing on search engines?
There is a skill involved in achieving a good listing on
search engines. The website must be designed in a certain way;
it must be resubmitted regularly and monitored on an ongoing
basis. Bluewater Webs provide this service as part of our web design
package.

Whats the design process?
Initially, we will meet with you to find out about your business
and discuss your website requirements. We will then start the
design work which you can view online. We will work together with
you, allowing you as much involvement as you wish and will be
happy to work within your timing constraints.
5. How can I monitor my site performance?
We will provide you with monthly website statistics that
will indicate how many site visitors your website has had, which
pages they are viewing and even which search engines and directories
they have come from. The site statistics will allow you to alter
the website or its marketing strategy accordingly.
6. How do people
find my site?
People who do not have your web address will use search
engines and directories to find your site. A search engine is
a computer generated collection of web sites which will display
a list of relevant sites when a search phrase is entered. Directories
are similar to standard directories such as the Yellow Pages -
websites are catagorised allowing the Internet user to locate
them easily and quickly.
7. I am not trying to sell anything on the
Internet, will the web work for me?
If you have a product to sell, then the Internet offers
the most effective medium to do this. However, many people use
the Internet as a source to gather information and we have designed
many informational sites for clients who are in the service sector.
8. I don't know much about computers, is
this a problem?
Not at all! The Internet is another advertising medium
which being in business you will be familiar with. If it's the
technical stuff your worried about, then don't - we are not 'techheads'
and will explain everything to you in simple English language.
