Common Questions:

Q. What are your usual rates?
A. There are many variables that affect the cost of a project. Rather than risk over-quoting or under-quoting a project, we choose to first analyze your requirements and objectives before we produce a proposal. Our proposal will be detailed and will outline project milestones, timeline, project cost, and all potential cost overruns.

Q. I want my site to be listed high on the major search engines. Can you make this happen this?
A. Yes! Using pay per click services such as Overture and Google; we can guarantee top billing for your Web site on several major search engines, such as Yahoo, MSN, Excite, and AltaVista. The old fashion method of submitting your Web site to free search engines and relying on your keywords for premium placement, is fading away. Most of the major search engines are switching to a pay per click, paid submission, or paid inclusion format. Today there are many other ways of driving the right kind of traffic to your Web site.

Q. How expensive is maintenance (upkeep) of a Web site?
A. It is less expensive than not keeping your Web site current! An out of date Web site sends a warning message to your client or potential client.

There are several ways that you can maintain your Web site, however we feel that the most cost effective approach is to have a Content Management System (CMS) included with your Web site. This does cost a little more upfront, but the life cycle cost is much lower because you are fully empowered to upkeep the Web site yourself. All that is needed is a browser and access to the Internet. No programming or technical skills are required. This is a great tool for updating event calendars, press releases, FAQs, newsletters, photo galleries, and eStores. Using a CMS, you no longer need to hire a development company to make simple changes to your Web site. Nor do you have to worry about damaging your Web site by making changes yourself.

Alternatively, Nexlook offers full service maintenance contracts to handle "whatever" unexpected Web site changes or issues that might arise.

Q. Who owns the Web pages and programming that you design?
A. You own all content, data, Web pages, graphics designed specifically for you, and program user rights. Nexlook retains ownership of its intellectual property, i.e. shopping cart, CMS, and so forth.
