Frequently Asked Questions

What is a domain name?

A domain name is a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) that an organization or individual can reserve for its exclusive, world-wide use on the internet by paying a small annual fee to one of many domain name registrars. For example, www.jenreckarddesigns.com. Domain names are used in web addresses, email addresses and for many other kinds of internet services.

What is web hosting?

Web hosting is a type of Internet service that allows individuals and organizations to make visible their websites via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center.

How much does it cost for the consultation of the web site?

Nothing at all. The initial consultation is on me.

Is there any flexibility in pricing?

I always try to give my clients the best price possible but if the quote I gave you doesn't really work for you, let's talk about it. Keep in mind though, that I generally cannot produce a site for less than the price of a template site.

Can I put music on my web site?

The answer is, "Of course, I can do anything you require." The more important question is, "Should I put music on my web site?"

People often go on-line at work, school, or some other place in which a sudden, unexpected sound may attract unwanted attention. Embarrassed, the visitor or potential client will quickly exit your site to stifle the sound, and is unlikely to try again later.

There are possibilities where music and sound might be appropriate on a children's web site, a web site including online games, or a web site for a band or musical group.

Still, there are many effective web sites that do not employ sound or music. Why would one choose to forgo such a powerful attention- grabber? This tactic, often used by retailers to attract passing customers into the store is simply not necessary on a web site; the customer is already inside.
