Website Design Estimator Help
Before using the website design estimator you should give some thought to why you want a website and what you hope it will achieve for your organisation. If you know of any competitors that have a website, take a look at their site and see which sections may work for your business.
Typically your website could be used for: -
- Marketing your organisation and the products & services you provide
- Servicing existing clients
- Reducing costs
- Selling your goods and services
No of Pages
Once you know the goals of your website consider how many pages you think the website may need. If you are only just beginning to market your company on the web then one or just a few pages may be enough. But if you want the website to fulfil all of the above uses then many more pages may be required.
No of Forms
Most websites now have at least a simple contact form that allows your visitors to get in touch. Depending on your requirements you may need additional forms for example to take on-line orders. Forms are a great way of collecting useful information from visitors in a structured manner, so try and consider how they may help your business.
Content Management
Content Management allows sections of your website to be updated directly via secure, easy to use, tools. If you want to provide the latest news, special offers or keep pricing up to date then Content Management may suit your needs. In general if you think there will be sections of the site that you need to change on a regular basis you should consider adding this feature to your list.
Dynamic Content
Dynamic content can bring your website alive. Perhaps you have a stock control system? Dynamic pages could link to it and present a real-time stock listing on the website. Need to take bookings on-line, a dynamic page could check and display availability to visitors and then allow reservations to be made. Dynamic content is almost boundless, so give some thought to how it might give your business a competitive edge.
E-Commerce
The biggest growth area on the Internet, do you have products or services that could be sold on-line? If so then you should be considering offering them to the huge market place the Internet offers.
No of E-Commerce Products
Selling a small product range on an E-Commerce website is a lot simpler to manage than one that contains many thousands of line items. So if you are thinking on an E-Commerce website you also need to consider the number of products you may want to market.
