How much does a web site cost?
There are quite a few factors that are going to affect the ultimate cost of your web site. These factors include how many pages you are going to have, the graphic work involved, and how interactive your future web site will be. You will also need web hosting and domain name registration.

Do I need to hire a "local" web site designer?
We create web sites for clients who are local as well as foreign. By using the Internet, email and the telephone, it is possible to communicate effectively with clients in any location.

How long does it take to have a web site designed?
The time frame is determined by the size of your web site, the complexity of your site design, and our current client design schedule.

What is a URL?

What is a domain name?
A domain name is a specific web site address that you choose and register with an official registrar of domain names. Our domain name is "cisgrenada.com".

What is web hosting?
Web hosting is a monthly fee that you pay to have your site accessible on the Internet.

What is site maintenance?
Maintenance is a fee paid monthly to keep your site updated with new content that you provide. Most good web sites have new content updated regularly. Fresh content is what will keep your visitors coming back.

Do you offer any type of discounts?
Yes, we offer discounts for schools and non profit organizations.

Why can't I find my web site in the search engines?
Once your site has been submitted to the top Search Engines they may require several weeks, or even months to actually spider and list your web site in their directory. How fast your site is listed depends on each individual Search Engines database update schedule. Watch your server traffic logs for visiting spiders.
