There are many different approaches one can take to set up a small business website. For example, some customers will obtain their own domain name and request hosting, then they will do the rest. Others want the domain name, the hosting, and the blog engine installed and they will then add the content using the user-friendly blog system. Then there is the business owner who wants a website and wants to hand over the content to a content manager such as ourselves to build the website and design all of the content pages.
We have listed the services we provide to small business owners on our website. Click here for more information. This is a guideline only and should be used to give some idea of what the potential costs are to set up a website and add content on a regular basis.
We recently built a website for a small non-profit organization, click here to see the website. They had the domain, and we provided the hosting and installed a WordPress blog with the appropriate apps to support his website. We add some basic pages and then turned it over to the president of the organization who wanted to design and add his own content and images for his blog. With a small amount of training, they were in business and updating content as needed.
They wanted to know why their website was on the 1st page of search results for some search terms and not for others. The answer was pretty simple. They did not have any content on their website that used those terms and therefore the search engines would not index them for that term, nor would they rank them for that term. They were obviously going to think about this and decide if they were going to add more content or not.
The example we have discussed is one of the least expensive ways to build a website. Spending a small amount for a domain name and hosting and then building and designing their own pages is clearly the way to go for this group. If they have the time to add their own content and are not too concerned about the time it takes, they can add content using the WordPress blogging engine, which is extremely easy to use and intuitive to learn.

Your design is perfect. This makes all the difference when reading
a blog. You've certainly got me returning for You've definitely got my seal of approval.
First of all I want to say fantastic blog! I had a quick question that I'd like to ask if you
don't mind. I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your head before writing.
I have had a tough time clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out there.
I do take pleasure in writing however it
just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be wasted just trying to
figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints? Kudos!
