Delta Provides Complete Website Services!
Design
The first service that Delta performs for you is design. To reduce startup
fees, we strongly encourage our clients to provide as much of the design in
electronic format or on disk as possible. This may include a description of
what your Web site layout will look like and perhaps furnishing graphics for
that design on disk. Of course, Delta is available to design your site for
you from verbal coversation, or descriptions you provide to us on paper,
from scanning your existing brochures or sales information, or any other
means by which you can convey your design wishes. Delta has designed small
sites from as little information as a business card and a discussion over
coffee at Starbucks!
Delta always takes the following Web site design criteria into
consideration:
- First impressions are critical. Your home page must display quickly and
cleanly. It should be clear to the visitor what this site is all about
without proceeding further.
- Graphic images above 30 - 50k bytes will discourage some people from
staying on your site. We do not turn away users with slow modems due to
large graphic images. Also, if providing us with pictures, carefully
consider what the image will look like after being scanned.
- Avoid dull pictures, choose sharp images and contrasts not everyone
has a high resolution monitor.
Development
This comprises the second part of your one-time startup fee. Delta will
normally develop your Web site for you after the design is complete.
Development includes converting the design to the language of (HTML) and
reformatting as required, adding hypertext links as appropriate, and
potentially integrating actual software programming modules into your
Web site. Automatic e-mail response forms, custom-designed
order forms, database search engines & mouseover buttons. These optional
modules can add tremendous capabilities to your Web site and really make
your site alive and standout from the rest. It is typical that a Web site
starts as a "basic" site and grows. As flexible TCP/IP developers, Delta
is available to provide a sophisticated and appropriate level of technology
to your website.
Maintenance
Delta is available to provide any level of ongoing maintenance that your
site requires. Some sites seldom change and thus, require minimal maintenance.
Most successful sites are dynamic and require changes on a regular basis
(weekly, monthly, yearly). It is very important for Delta to understand how
much maintenance your site will require. How often do you anticipate changes
being made to your Website (changes in pricing, text, services being
offered, etc...)? For very dynamic sites (many changes per month, or daily
changes,), it may be possible for Delta to design your site such that you will
be able to upload the changes directly yourself. Note that some basic
training and software will be required on your part in order for you to
properly upload files to your host server.
Once maintenance requirements are clarified, Delta can work with you to
implement a program that is the most cost effective way of meeting the
dynamic requirements of your Website.
