Getting
on line
If
you've not had a lot to do with the internet the thought of
getting your own Web Site can be a bit daunting. I mean where
do you start? Right Here!
Step
number 1 - Get your own Domain name
Your
domain name - www.yourbusiness.com or .com.au is your identity
on the web. It is like your business name or telephone number.
It is what everyone will type into their browser to find your
piece of the web. Just like your business name you register
it every 1 or 2 years and it remains yours for as long as
you continue to do so.
It
will also allow you to create your own e-mail addresses. It
is your name so you have all the freedom you want with it
to create bob@yourbusiness.com, accounts@, info@ etc. literally
anything you want.
The
most popular domain names around the world end in .com and
originate in the U.S. This does not stop someone from any
other country in the world getting one though.
A .com domain name costs Aus$26.96 per annum and a .com .au
is $89.57 per 2 years.

If
you're not confident registering your domain name yourself
contact us and we will do it on your behalf for an additional
fee.
Step
number 2 - Hosting your Web Site
In
order for your site to be available to people locally and
around the world it must be Hosted. Web Hosting is the renting
of space on a server where your site is stored. The server
must be secure from hacking and viruses and provide enough
space to accommodate your site both now and into the future.
We provide all this and more check out Web
Hosts Australia to find the package best suited
to your needs.
If
you are unsure of this then have your developer consult the
plans or contact
us directly and we will be happy
to help.
Step
number 3 - Have your Web Site designed and built
This
can either be done by us or by any of a myriad of capable
developers out there so either review our web
design page and contact us for more information,
or let your developer know you would like to have your site
