There are many companies who can design a simple web site, but designing a successful site is a much more complicated task!

Our Definition of Success
It's really very simple to define what a successful web site should be: It's a site that helps your business grow. How can a web site accomplish that task? For starters it can bring in new customers and clients you wouldn't have reached otherwise. However, that's just the tip of the Internet iceberg. It also allows you to cost-effectively market your products and services to a national or even international audience. A web site strengthens the bonds you've established with your current customers, by giving them convenient, 24 hour access to on-line business services and enhanced customer support services, resources that educate them about your business, and even services that allow them to make purchases on-line with the click of a button. A good web site can do all of this while increasing the efficiency of your business and your customer relations.

Dressing For Success
What goes into a web site design that makes it successful? That's a difficult question to answer in a short space, but here's a brief outline of what Webbsite, Inc. will do to ensure the success of your site. The first (and we feel the most important) step is listening to you. After all, no one knows your business better than you do. After we've learned about your business, we make suggestions, outlines, sketches, diagrams, and even prototypes that convey to you our ideas for your web site. And then we listen to you again. We repeat this process until the site is a fusion of your ideas for your business and our talents and experience.

Then we build your web site using the most sophisticated technologies available: HTML 4, CGI programming in Perl 5, C++ and Visual Basic, Java applets, custom graphics and animations, relational database interfaces, Macromedia Flash, SSL, PGP and DES encryption techniques, and more. And we're not just throwing around fancy acronyms; our designers and engineers have a thorough understanding of these technologies and how to use them to create a successful web site for your company. Unlike many companies we don't just use "canned" software for our designs. Our staff includes programmers with years of experience who can design custom solutions that fit the needs of your business. Webbsite can create a unique and interactive presence for your company on the World Wide Web.

While the "look and feel" of a web site plays a major part, there are also many behind the scenes features that heavily influence a site's success. Information must be added to a site to allow easy indexing by search engine robots. Also sites with advanced design features must be constructed so they can be used by customers who don't have the latest software and hardware for viewing web sites. If these parts of the design are neglected your site won't reach a fraction of its potential audience.

Not Just Another Billboard
Many companies and design firms tend to think of a web site as an electronic billboard. This "billboard" analogy is limiting because it really only applies to the simplest of web sites. To draw in new customers and keep them coming back your site needs to provide them with the information, services, and even products that they want. Webbsite, Inc. will create an interactive, creative site for your company that's not just another cheap billboard on the side of the Information Superhighway.
