Frequently Asked Questions

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE FOR MY WEBSITE DESIGN?
Time is always an issue. From the moment you sign your contract, you are given a rough estimate of the time it will take to complete your website. Sites with 1-4 basic pages may take 2-3 weeks.

WHAT IS WEB HOSTING AND WHY DO I NEED IT?
Hosting is the term most used for the 'space where your site lives'. Picture the internet as your neighborhood. Your mailbox address is your domain name. Your domain name sits on our server. That same server has direct address on the internet, your website. Hosting is essential. We offer serveral hosting packages, please check out hosting section for details.
