Not Included in our General Services:

1. In Depth Web site Promotion Analysis
Web site promotion means driving traffic to your site. When we submit your site to the search engine, that is all we do for the basic service. We put a significant effort into the search engine optimization but evaluating the efficiency and discovering new ones over time is beyond the scope of "design and hosting". There is however a daily statistics report you can watch to see how you are doing with most packages. We offer an advanced Search Engine Optimization service that can help fulfill any further needs your business has.

2. Amount of Visitors to Your Site / Site Popularity
We can give you advice on how to get more visitors; add more text! This is actually a business planning activity. Your company needs to monitor your web site and see what people are interested in, and why they do come to the web site. This can also be affected by the competition in your area of business. The information in the stats program can be used to guide all the areas of your business, not just your web site. Please see our web site promotion ideas

3. Key Phrases
Key Phrases are the actual words a person would type into a search engine to find your web site. Example: 'webmaster for hire' might bring you here to this site.

We can do this for you, but it's really best if you do it yourself. We create your key phrases from the text you have already given us. We hope you would make your own key phrases ranked in order of importance.

Key phrases should be in the body of your site content as well. If you find you are not coming up under a certain phrase, then you can change your key phrases, however we CANNOT predict how any outside search engine is going to list your site. If you would like to be coming up under a certain phrase, then you may tell us and we can optimize for it, but we cannot explain the behavior of any particular search engine, nor be held responsible for what they decide to do. All we can do is tell you what they require to be listed. And what normally happens.

4. Public Relations Resulting in More Sales
This is what an advertising agency or public relations firm can do for you. We can make suggestions and try to be helpful, but it is not the service we are selling. However, the statistics page can be very useful to you in this. Use it to gather information and insight about your customers.

5. Policing your Site / Content Management
When you give us material for your web site it is your responsibility to ensure that it is correct, free from copyright infringement, and relevant. Although we make every effort to use spell check and proofread your materials, this alone is not sufficient. Just as it is in any other publishing business, the production of a professional web site requires careful proofreading and an "editor's eye". The merchantability and fitness of your site content is also your responsibility.

6. Writing Copy
We can help edit your copy correcting for grammar and spelling, but we generally do not write it unless you hire us to do so. Most people know what's best for them, or have existing advertising to get the text from. We do offer a service for ad copyrighting on your web site. Contact us for details.

7. Taking Photos
We do not take on site photographs, but can in most instances make a recommendation to you for a professional in your area.
