Frequently Asked Questions
If the question you need answering isn't here, please don't hesitate
to contact us. We'll always do our best to offer an honest, frank and
above all clear answer - without jargon and gobbledegook.
Do
I build the website myself?
No! It is critical you understand this point. Many companies expect
you to build your website yourself using templates and leaflets,
etc. Whilst it's true that these will provide you with a web presence,
they lack
expert set up. A foot rub is not reflexology. A jab with a needle
is not acupuncture. A packet of aspirin is no substitute for a GP.
In other words what we're saying is that these companies are
tricking you into believing that you don't need experience or qualifications
to build a successful website. We believe you do. That's why we build
your website for you, letting you do your own job, not ours. That
way you can be assured that the site is built, coded and optimised
to make it as successful as possible. Why buy a dog and bark yourself? -
TOP - Will you help me with
the content of my site?
Of course we will, that's our job. We'll advise you on the kind
of thing you should be including in your site, the sort of thing
our experience has shown us that the general public and search engines
like to see. You will have to provide this text, but you don't need
to be
a
literary
genius. We'll help you shape it and word it appropriately to optimise
your content.
- TOP - Are
there hosting / other charges?
No. After the initial set up fee, you pay just the one monthly payment. Everything
else is included, so there are no hosting costs, etc. However, if you decide
that our standard package, as good as it is, needs a little extra, you can add
more pages, etc, and you will obviously have to pay for this. See our prices page
for details. - TOP - Is the domain name included?
We include the cost of a .co.uk domain name in with the standard
package. However, if you required another name, say a .uk.com, etc,
this may incur an additional cost, which we would advise you about
well in advance. - TOP
- I already have a domain name. Can you help me?
Yes. We can usually arrange to host your domain name without any trouble
at all. We'll advise you more about the simple process upon application.
- TOP - I already have a website. Can you
help me?
Yes we can. Many people who are dissatisfied with the performance of their
existing website come to us for help and improved service. Just contact
us with your details.
- TOP - How do I update my Products / News Page / Courses, etc?
We provide a very easy to use control panel. If you can type a sentence
in a box, select an option from a drop-down menu or click a button, you'll
have no trouble with our Control Panel. -
TOP - Have I got to use all the options?
I don't want the Shop / Courses / News, etc.
Obviously not. As standard you have all the services we describe,
which you can use at any time. But if you don't want to use something
or if it's inappropriate, you don't have to. We'll switch those
services
off until you're ready for them. You simply don't have to use what
you don't need.
- TOP - What about similar companies? How are you different?
There are other companies that claim to specialise in Therapy websites.
Some of these may even appear cheaper. But from our experience
some of these companies use Templates (standard sites with a limited
selection). Often they claim to help their clients with search engines,
but typically only the home page is submitted (why have 10 or more
pages when only one is made known?). These same companies usually
say they'll help you optimise your site, and to do this they give
you confusing pamphlets to read. We reject such practices and deplore
them. We are the web designers and you are the client. It is our
job to build your website, optimise is, do the best we can to make
your site a success, and WE do it, with every page, with enthusiasm
and commitment. -
TOP -
Will my website appear on
Search Engines?
Yes! Unlike some other companies, we ensure that every appropriate
page is coded and optimised to attract search engines, then we submit
these details to over 50 search engines. Whilst it must be understood
that this is not an exact science, our
success rate is excellent and clientele
to date have been pleased with their results. - TOP - |
