ACCESS NETWORK INTERNET SOLUTIONS to empower your business or organization today

ACCESS NETWORK

To the website visitor, a dynamic website appears the same as any other website. However, dynamic sites draw their content from a database, and offer FUNCTIONALITY to users that 'static' websites cannot - browsing an online catalog, sending/receiving e-mail from within the site, downloading files, getting updated news, etc. They tend to be E-commerce based, but databases can enhance the functionality of almost any kind of site.

With an ACCESS NETWORK designed dynamic website, you have control and can change the content at any time.

This is the question we get asked most often! Before we talk about website design fees, there are a couple of costs that must be incurred initially. First of all, most businesses would need to purchase a domain-name (for example, www.yourbusinessname.com), which generally costs $20 / year. Secondly, you must rent space on the internet to place your website. This is called website hosting, and is usually $350 + Canadian per year, depending on the company doing the hosting and the specifics involved. At ACCESS NETWORK, we can assist you with these matters or include them as part of our website design services.

The cost of a website depends on the complexity. Generally, business websites start at $1,500 and usually remain below $10,000. Yes, that's a broad quote, but websites really differ in functionality, content and interactivity. A more accurate custom quote can be provided by contacting us and discussing the specifics of the website your company desires.

Company logos, catalogs, videos, photographs, business cards, brochures, sales kits etc. are all great materials to start with. But before blindly designing a website, an internet strategy should be established. What will be the main purpose of your website? What is your current marketing strategy? What is your branding strategy? Who will be the visitors? What type of customer do you want? Questions like these are the starting points to successful website design. At ACCESS NETWORK, we can collaborate with you to help answer these fundamental questions.

'Website Maintenance' refers to changes made to the website after the initial design. Keeping a website up-to-date is essential in having repeat visitors to your site. Updating the site with newsletters, press releases, financial figures, links, and current goings-on within the company are all examples of 'Website Maintenance.' At ACCESS NETWORK, we will arrange a custom maintenance-contract with your business to take care of keeping the website maintained.
