The Internet is everywhere;
advertisements for Internet sites and Internet related
products are in and on every form of media.
You might feel
that your business would not benefit from a presence
on the Word Wide Web but in the last year alone the
number of businesses that have their own website has
grown by around 500%. Are they getting some of the
business that should have come to you?
You may consider
the following as reasons for not having your own website:
- You don't use a computer
- You don't know how to get
a website
- It's far too expensive
- There's a large yearly/standing
charge
- It won't bring me any more
business
Then take a moment
to consider these reasons for having your own website:
- It can bring you extra
business because your potential customers can
look at your products/services at a time that
suites them under conditions that are stress free,
i.e. they feel no sense of obligation.
- A website tells even the
customers who do not visit it that they are dealing
with modern 'Information Technology' aware company.
- A website can be updated
with new products and information at little or
no cost, unlike the costly reprinting of brochures
and price lists.
- A website is instantly
available to anyone connected to the Internet
anywhere in the world
- And last but certainly
not least a website will cost a lot less than
you think!
You may have a
website, but read on, have the graphics been optimised
for faster loading? Do the pages have 'meta tags'
containing key words that will help your site appear
early in web searches? Has it been notified to all
the major search engines? If the answer to any of
these questions is no then your website is not working
as hard as it should do for you.
What will a website
cost? A single page copying your existing brochure
and logo style, with any content, an e-mail link to
an existing e-mail address and the URL (internet address)
www.surftech.co.uk/yourname will cost just
£69.00. Additional pages cost £50 per page for the
first four and £40 per page thereafter. That's it!
We build and host the site and will even provide you
with an e-mail address if you do not have one. You
don't even need a computer to pick up your e-mail;
we will do that for you and speedily forward it on.
After the first
year the hosting charge is just £50 per annum. That's
right less than a pound a week no matter how large
your site! We will promote your website to major search
engines so your customers can find you easily. We
will even provide updates like a change in telephone/fax
number, a change in prices or a new e-mail address
free, other changes like additional graphics or a
change of logo or style may incur a small service
charge.
That's not all.
You don't pay anything until you see your site on
the World Wide Web! That's right we will build your
site, provide the web space and make your site available
on the web all before you have to part with a penny!
Interested? Well
there's more; we have access to the UK domain registration
service that enables us to register your name as a
domain name. What this means is that for £25 (per
24 months) you could get the URL (internet address)
www.yourname.co.uk. We will link this URL
to your website and ensure that any e-mail sent to
anyone@yourname.co.uk is forwarded automatically
to an existing e-mail address or forwarded by fax
or mail.
Remember you don't
need an e-mail address, you don't even need to own
a computer to have your own business website. All
you need to do is fill in the form below or pick up
the telephone and speak with David Hewitt or on 01948
663143 to discuss your requirements. We really do
want your business!
