New SiteBuilder
tool puts professional tools in your hands
|
Web Strategies can now provide you with a
professionally designed site with features that
formerly were only available to deep-pocketed
corporations. Better yet, you can even manage
your site on your own (or we can do it for you, if
you prefer).
All
of our Web sites are loaded with extra tools and
features designed to help you maximize your online
presence! These include:
 |
500 Megabytes of Storage Space -
|
All of our Web sites come standard with a
massive 500MB of disk space-more than enough
space to hold thousands of images and volumes of
text. Most Web sites only use 20 - 30MB of
space, so chances are you'll never need to use
even half of the storage space you have, but as
your business grows and becomes more successful,
you can be confident that your Web site will be
able to adapt to meet your changing needs.
|
|
Professional Layout and Design
|
Our Web designers and marketing experts have
spent countless hours researching successful
sites on the Internet in order to develop the
most effective, professional Web site layouts
and designs possible. You can choose from
hundreds of different layouts and color schemes,
and our system will automatically add special
pages, text and buttons to meet the specific
needs of businesses in your industry. If you
ever want to change the look or feel of your
site, you can choose a new layout in just a few
easy steps.
|
|
WYSIWYG Web site Editing Tools -
|
The WYSIWYG Editor is a powerful interface tool
that allows you to modify every aspect of your
Web site on screen in a view that closely
resembles what the published page will look like
on the site. The WYSIWYG Editor uses a simple
point-and-click system: click on any section of
the Web page to access menus for inserting,
deleting, or editing text, images, columns,
tables, or any other component on your site.
|
|
Live Technical Support |
If you ever have any questions about using the
tools or features in your new Web site, our
professional, courteous Customer Care
representatives will be ready and waiting to
assist you! Call us, e-mail us, or use the live
Internet chat tool as often as you want-it's all
part of the value-added service included with
your monthly hosting/service fee.
|
|
Advanced ChatLink Technology
|
This amazing feature is an enhanced version of
the Internet chat tool that gives our Customer
Care representatives the ability to remotely
share your mouse and keyboard for quick and easy
service. Once you enable the ChatLink feature,
it will create a direct link between your
computer and a Customer Care representative's
computer in our support center, allowing them to
show you how to perform each step in the process
in real time on your computer screen! Whenever
you would like to resume control of your
computer, simply pause the session or override
the Customer Care rep by moving your mouse.

|
|

|
When you start uploading product images to your
online catalog, all of your images will be
automatically reduced to thumbnail-sized
pictures ideal for displaying your merchandise.
Regardless of the original size, all of the
thumbnail images on your site will have the same
width, while maintaining the original aspect
ratio, resulting in a professional,
well-designed look for your product catalog
pages.
|
|
Multiple Billing Options -
|
Our versatile e-commerce system is designed to
give you a variety of options for processing
online orders. You can process credit cards
online in real time, have orders sent to you by

business, and with our domain name tool, the
registration process is quick and easy. Our
system allows you to check on the availability

to an existing e-mail account. This feature
provides you with a great way to present your
customers and business associates with a
professional, corporate image, and it turns all
of your e-mail correspondence into a subtle way
to market your new Web site.
|
|

|
No matter how impressive your Web site is, it's
not doing you any good if customers can't find
you online. With the Site Promotion Tool, we'll
help you increase your visibility on the World
Wide Web by guiding you through the entire
optimization and submission process-from setting
meta-tags, choosing keywords and descriptions,
to automatically submitting your site to several
of the major search engines. We also provide you
with tips on optimizing your site to improve
your chances of ranking well with search
engines, and we include links and instructions
for submitting your site to other important
search engines that require Web sites to be
submitted manually.

Whenever a new local customer finds your
business online, one of the first things they'll
want to know is "Where are you located?" Now
your customers will be able to use the
integrated map feature on your Web site to view
a map displaying your exact location, or if
they're unfamiliar with the area, your customers
can enter their address and receive detailed
instructions that will guide them right to your
business.

redundant Tier-1 Internet backbone with
multi-gigabyte data transfer capacity guarantees
that your customers will always enjoy
dependable, lightning-fast access to your Web
