It seems like web sites are getting so fancy-- do I need all this?

The best web sites are simple, eye-catching, easy to navigate and to the point. The fact is that a clean, uncluttered site will better keep the prospective customer focused on what you are trying to present. A page with multitudes of columns and boxes all over the place will confuse your prospect. The subject of the page should stand out and catch the reader.

Navigation throughout the site should be easy to locate, and it shouldn't require more than three mouse clicks to get to any page.

Much of the new technology for the Internet, including that used in site design requires high-speed Internet connections and fast computers. That's fine for part of the public, but what about the part that are still using dial-up modems, or God forbid, are still using less than Pentium 4 processors in their computers. These people will not wait 30 to 60 seconds for a page to load! I won't and you probably won't either!

Another point that is over-looked is the Search Engine compatibility. There is an ever growing trend towards websites that are totally Flash. Flash is a great design tool, however, it is not only labor intensive, but it stops the search engines dead in their tracks. Search engines cannot spider Flash movies. Since they mainly look for keywords from the text in your website, they will miss the subject of your site. Designers can put META Tags and key words in till they are blue in the face, but unless these words are found in the viewable pages they will skip them. This is an important part of design that isn't much talked about! I use a little Flash, like the header and logo, or maybe an inset somewhere in a page, but never Flash navigation or complete Flash sites. Good old HTML still works best!

Browser incompatibility is another case in point. We need to keep the site viewable in the older versions of the major browsers. Again, lots of people with older computers and operating systems cannot view websites with some of the intense technologies.

You need to reach all of the people all of the time, not some of them some of the time!

Why does Website Explosion's services cost so much less than other professional web site services?

Why do designers charge such high hourly rates? (Up to $150.00 per hour) The old saying "You get what you pay for" is true. In most cases you are paying for your site designer's high overhead costs. That high overhead you just bought isn't going to show on your web site.

With our low overhead we will sell you top quality service for $20.00 per hour or less. You don't pay for a lot of overhead that doesn't make your site look a bit better!

Note... The information on this page is not meant to degrade our competition.

We just believe that our prospective customers should be informed about what they are getting for their money. I believe that money doesn't grow on trees. Anyway, I couldn't find one in my yard!

All else said, why not reach as many people with your website as possible, for as little cost as possible?

What will it be? $50.00-- $75.00-- $100.00 per hour?      Its your choice!!!
