Our domain registrar of choice is GoDaddy. They offer domain names at the best price point, and they have what we think is the best control panel amongst it’s competitors. If at any point you decide you don’t like them as a registrar, it’s very easy to transfer your name to another registrar.

Godaddy also provides other services such as web hosting and email hosting, although we DO NOT suggest you purchase any of these services. Domain Registry is what they do and what they do well. Hosting is a separate service handled better by those who specialize in hosting. With hosting you’ll want complete control over your servers configurations and you don’t want to have to pay for the “little features” such as email forwarding and URL forwarding.

So when your ready to buy a domain name, head over to www.godaddy.com homepage where you’ll be able to plug in a few ideas and see what’s available.

Of course we’re here to help if you’d like our participation.

• Your projects goals
• Initial ideas on site concept
• Competitor references
• Supplement information on your goods or services
• Existing assets to be delivered
• Contact info of key players

The above will serve as a guideline for an effective project brief and the more time and effort that can be put into such a document can only be useful for wherever you take your project. It’s a great exercise in understanding what you’re looking for from your service provider and it really helps your creative team execute your concepts.

Incoming mail server (POP3 & IMAP)
mail.yourdomain.com

Outgoing mail server (SMTP)
mail.yourdomain.com

This example is not to be taken literally. If your website is bobswidgets.com, then both your incoming and outgoing servers should be set to mail.bobswidgets.com

Per Project
We provide you with a fixed bid price based on the time we anticipate to execute your project(s) from start to finish. We scope the project and capture the fine details on paper. If changes are made to the scope of the project, then the changes get amended the work order. We require a 50% deposit for these projects with the remaining 50% due before launch or production of the project.

Retainers
Purchase a block of time at a reduced rate. We deduct time remaining as we work on your project. Time remaining can be used on any of your projects, and your unused time is never lost. We provide you with a detailed log of where our time is spent. We also provide estimates on your project(s) so you have an idea of just how much time will be absorbed against your retainer credit.

We’ve launched websites in under a week and we’ve worked on other more complex projects that have spanned a few months… and of course these come at different price points.

The good news is… we’re willing to look at your project and scope it so that both parties have a good understanding of what’s involved in making it come to life. The question may not be answered on the spot, but it will be answered before any commitments are made.

  It’s a value added service, we’re not exactly a boutique portrait shop, but we know what we’re doing with studio lighting, green-screen, and chroma-key backdrops. If your eCommerce site will need 200 products shots, we’d love to take it on and incorporate the style of shot into the site design.

  Also just scratching the surface.
