All-Net Computer Solution got into the web design business specifically to help the small business customer get on the world wide web without breaking their budget. The idea was to produce inexpensive web sites that were classy and had the glizzy visuals of more expensive sites, but still remained in the small business budget.
Most of the sites we design and deploy are completed for less than $2000. In fact we can build a small business web site for less than $1000 that still has all the essential elements to make the web site successful.
Our philosophy has always been to start small and only when the site starts to generate revenue or exposure should more money be invested in development. Web sites are a work in progress and evolve rather than just appear complete. The evolution can progress in a very orderly and affordable fashion.
We actually request that the business owner goes slowly as they enter into this endeavor. The formula for an inexpensive but effective web site is pre production detail, and material gathered by the business owner or his/her designee. In order to hold the costs down we ask that all images, content and other supporting material be assembled before we begin. A list of sites the owner has seen that he / she likes so we can get an idea of what they want. A history of the business and a bio of the principles whom are key to the company are also helpful. All web sites have an ”About Us” page and personalizing the page really connects with the viewer / potential customer.
We provide the hosting server, corporate email, web support, marketing suggestions, search engine optimizations, look and feel examples, and phone conferences to brain storm development ideas. We will even provide photographic support for business’s in the central Massachusetts and North Florida areas. If face to face design meetings are required, we will travel (at the customers expense) anywhere we are needed.
Our designers are based in Massachusetts (Worcester & Westboro), Arizona (Phoenix),and Georgia (Hilton Head). We are a group of collaborators that have worked together for years and have built many web sites. Our graphic designers can built your images if you do not already have a company logo or other images.
We will provide examples of your site as we see it. We publish the site to a test location so you can see what we are actually doing. We welcome your criticism, many people cannot tell us what they like but that can certainly tell us what they don’t like. We will take your comments and criticisms and modify the site until you are satisfied.
All we require to get started is a modest retainer and your ideas.
At All-Net Computer Solutions only use standard development tools to keep development cost down and web site development quick and painless. We also choose these web development tools so that the web site is portable to any platform. These tools include “Net Fusion Objects”, “Dream Weaver”, “Photoshop”, “Illustrator”, “Flash”, and other industry standard tools.
This dependence on software tools allows us to use Rapid Prototyping Techniques to get your site published in a very timely manner. It also gives us the ability to take your suggestions and criticisms and quickly turn them into reality. This rapid turn-around of ideas allows you to make critical decisions while they are still fresh in your mind.
We start off with simple sites that usually consist of 4 basic pages. Home Page, About Us, Contact Us & Product Page. This can grow to almost any size. We have sites that have included pages that show the company at various events, publicity releases, marketing information and so on.
Some of the sites we have built and have grown in to complex sites follow.
We use Flash and Shockwave as needed. These can be very flashy and bring important points to the viewer if they are not overused. Animation is very pleasing if used correctly. You almost can’t tell what is correct until you actually see it. By being very experienced in this area we can save you time and money by telling you what will and what will not work.
You can view various animations that we have done on the following sample sites.
We have done many Catalogs for various business’s some of the more robust require special programming that cannot be done by the software tools. Each of the shopping cart programs require special interfaces and coding so that your products can be handled properly.
PAYPAL is a very popular shopping cart interface that allows you to forgo credit card processing and still get the benefits of a merchant credit account. An example of a complex shopping cart implementation is Sticth-This!!.
This is an extreme example of a shopping cart gone viral. There are some products with 10 and 15 choices of color, there are many different garments and classifications. This shopping cart shows that we can build pretty much any shopping cart you can think of.
All you need to do is actually sign up for the PayPal account as a Buyer and Seller. You give us the login and password to the account and we do all the rest. Once we are done implementing the account and the interface you can change the password essentially locking us out.
This is painless and the most convenient way to get involved with PayPal.
The advantages of PayPal is that you have all the benefits of a Credit Card , Debit Card, or Check processing with none of the responsibility. It also gives you customers the security that comes with knowing that you as a vendor will never see the credit card or personal information that customers are uncomfortable releasing to strangers.
All you need to do is actually sign up for the Merchant Account with your bank. You give us the account information and tell the bank that we are your representatives, and we do all the rest. This is painless and the most convenient way to get involved with a merchant account. We suggest that you use the bank’s credit card processing services.
The advantages of using the bank’s processing services is that you have all the benefits of a Credit Card , Debit Card, or Check processing with none of the responsibility. It also gives you customers the security that comes with knowing that you as a vendor will never see the credit card or personal information that customers are uncomfortable releasing to strangers.
You do not want process your own credit card processing because of the security required by the state governments. If you are not certified, you will be responsible for any identity theft. We operate on certified and secure servers but if you are in possession of other peoples credit card information you assume complete financial responsibility.
At All-Net Computer Solutions we have access to professional graphic designers that have been designing web based graphics for years. They can generate and create any art work that you require. Business Logo’s to Home page design to business documents like letter head and business cards.
We have many designers in various parts of the country that can help in any way you need.
We can design any form that your business needs. We can build complex forms that allow your customers to place orders or allow you to build contact lists.
These forms are secure and do not contain your email address so that potential spammers cannot grab your email. This is the most popular way spammer’s get your name and email address.
The forms processor that we use is world renown and has been the forms processing business for over a decade.
In complex web site design we will often use a database driven design like WordPress, or other content management tools. These tools allow you to compile information and enter them into a database. Then the database is used to filling the web site with the content that you provide. The content also includes the actual graphical design and style sheets that are used to generate the visual web site.
The beauty of this kind of site is that you can change the content at will so you have more control without needing web designer to make content changes. Being able to change specials or add new information yourself is very economical. The cost of developing the site is more expensive but in the long run it is cheaper to maintain.
