Whether on phone, video chat, Zoom, Skype, or in-person meeting, web consultation with an experienced, knowledgeable webmaster is your key to success! NOTE: whenever location / schedule is optimal, we favor the in-person meeting. The many other options are available for those clients out-of-state, or perhaps international. Often, a standard phone call will completely cover all important website topics and goals, even for those in the same town.
Website consultation often takes many forms, and will vary from client to client. Experienced webmasters are highly flexible and well versed in working with a wide array of industries, markets, and business formats, so please know that the individual needs of your business or organization are taken into full consideration. Of the many topics and areas of focus, some common topics discussed in a web consultation include, but are not limited to:
- Improving website appearance (re-design)
- Online reputation management (Google, social networking outreach)
- Performance and speed optimization
- Integration with payment/shipping processors
- Managing web shop products and settings
- Routine blog / content posts
- General website maintenance
- Hosting / E-mail solutions
