Lots
of people have contacted us to ask about setting up
a web site, the website design or the possibility of
modifying their existing website. Many wish to arrange
for us to design a brand new website or move their
website to a different web server. Perhaps they have
queries concerning either existing domain names or
new domain names. We have listed below for you some
of the most frequently asked questions in connection with website design - along with
answers - appertaining to web design and associated
web issues..
If you have a question that
is not answered here, or you want to talk to us about any
aspect of your website design, setting up or changing
your web site, web hosting or website maintenance or domain name registration
please feel free to contact us to discuss your requirements.
How long will it take for my web site to be designed?
The timescale of a website design project is generally dictated by the client. If you have a deadline in mind we will endeavour to meet it for you. The most common delay in the creation of a site is waiting for content (text/images) to be sent to us by the client.
Will we need to have a meeting in connection with the website design?
In the majority of cases a meeting isn't necessary and 90% of our websites are generally completed with contact via email and telephone only. We place suggested website designs onto the Internet in a private place where only yourselves and us can view the content. We then liaise with you regularly to discuss the web designs in order that the final result is exactly as you wish.
Once my website design is completed -what aftersales service do you offer?
Do I have to keep my website with you forever, or can I move it to another supplier to host it if I wish?
You may move your
website to another web hosting service at any time. Once your website
design has been completed, we send you a copy of the website
on cd. This copy of your website is for your retention
In what format should I supply words and photographs about my business for my new website?
It is helpful
to us if you are able to provide text and photographs in electronic
form - for example, the files output by a digital camera and
the words in MS word or similar format. If
this is not possible, we can help get your information ready for use on the website.
Will my website design be" Search Engine" friendly?
All our websites
are created with search engines in mind and the website design is compliant with search engine guidelines. It is a good idea for your website to be re-evaluated in time as over a period of time the search engines do alter their rules and algorithms and you will want to be certain that your website is kept up to date and complies with new rules etc.
How to choose which web designer to design my website ? Why choose GCWWeb Services!
There are thousands of web designers - most advertise on the Internet trying to persuade you to place your website design in their hands. Which web designer should you choose? What knowledge should your web designer have? Which website design company should I choose? Read more information about choosing your web designer ............
I run a small/medium size business and want an online presence to promote my business in a professional manner to new customers and to provide a more professional image to existing customers. What do I need to achieve this?
You need a professionally developed website, a domain name, and hosting facilities for your website. You also need the website to be uploaded onto your hosting facilities and promoted to the search engines.
If I choose a CMS System 0r Content Management System - can I be sure that my webpages are "Search Engine Friendly"?
I hear that there are hidden costs associated with web design services. Is this true?
No. We discuss with you your website requirements and then price accordingly and once you have placed an order for your website design with us, that price is strictly adhered to.
Do I need a database on my website?
This will depend upon the amount of information you wish to be displayed on your website. If you have many products/services, then it may be advantageous to have a database incorporated into your website design. We will discuss this in detail with you and if a database is advised we will explain in detail exactly how this will work. We can tailor your website design to suit your specific requirements. Read FAQ about database website design.........
How do I update my website?
There are many different methods which can be used to update websites. The method you choose and the functionality we build into your website design is solely up to yourself although of course we will be glad to advise you which method will suit your needs.
If you have a small website consisting of just a few pages and will only wish to make changes very infrequently, then usually it is more cost effective simply to ask Hebridean Webto carry out these changes for you. Other methods which are frequently chosen are largely dependant upon how much data or information and pictures you have and how you store this information at present.
We can provide an on line content management system where you can either update individual products/pages/services or particular sections of your website. e.g. company news.
Alternatively we can provide functionality such that you can upload your entire product ranges to the website in one action using spreadsheets etc. We can also add databases if you wish.
Am I tied into Hebridean Webfor any site maintenance or updates I wish to do once my website is designed?
No once your website is designed it belongs to you and you can commission anyone to update it for you - although of course we would like to think that you are happy with our services and will continue to use us for your website maintenance.

Will everyone see my web site the same?
Your website visitors will see some things differently depending on their browser, screen resolution setting and their individual computer settings and toolbars. We design sites with that in mind and preview them in several browser types and resolution settings before publishing. Obviously as technology alters then eventually all websites may need reevaluation.
Can you provide all our web design and hosting services?
Yes - we are your one stop company to provide all your web services. No more - not knowing who to call if you have problems - we can register your domain name - design your website - provide your web hosting and arrange your email accounts for you.

Do you guarantee that my site will always be available?
No web hosting service can guarantees 100% uptime. However we can say that our servers have had 100% up time for many years. Should our servers have any problems we do have the necessary backups in place to deal with this issue very speedily.
Do you use Flash animation?
Yes we do use
flash as and when required. It is important to note that there
are times when flash animations can be an asset but it would be
unwise to use "flash" to create an entire website
or even entire pages of your website as search engines are
not able to read the content of flash and therefore any words
used in animations will not be indexed by the search engines.
Generally it is best to use flash for smaller banners, advertisements or demonstrations and incorporate the flash animation into a web page which also includes some written text in html. This way the search engines will be able to index your information Read about animation in your website design.............
Can I get e-mail with my website?
Yes you can
have email and you will probably wish you set-up several
email addressed e.g. sale@your-domain.com, info@your-domain.com,
john.smith@your-domain.com
Can I see how many visitors I've had to my website?
Yes we provide
web tracking software which records where you visitors are
coming from and which pages they looked at, which search engines are being used, which phrases are being typed into which search engines and many more interesting web tracking facts which you should find useful for future marketing campaigns.
Do I need to install any software?
No is the simply
answer.
Can I have an e-commerce system?
Yes you can. We
have Secure Servers (SSL) which use the latest encryption
methods to ensure that your customers can buy from you website
knowing that the information they enter is secure and safe. if you wish your customers' payments to be "cleared on line" we can interface to organisations like Worldpay, Protex or whichever third party you wish to use. Read more about ecommerce website design services.
When can I update my content?
If the website
we have designed for you includes a Content Management System
then you can access your administration areas from anywhere
as long as you have an internet connection and make updates instantly as frequently as you wish. If your website is a smaller website and was designed without using this type of system and you don't have any html. skills, then we can update the website for you. Our charges are very reasonable..
Is there any training provided with the Content Management System - CMS?
The Content Management Systems really are very easy to use and do have explanatory notes included where necessary. We run through the administration screens with you when we design the site for you - however if at any time you have any questions we are available at the end of the telephone to run through the procedures or answer any queries you may have
How much will a website cost me?
The cost of a
web site varies depending on the site and complexity. A small
web site with just a few static pages would cost around £300
whereas a full ecommerce website with a large number of pages
and a CMS system could cost any where between £800 and £3000.

How can I accept credit cards on my site?

methods availably to you. We would need to talk to you to established
you requirements and the best method for your company. There are essentially two main methods of accepting credit cards.
