It's a
big decision -- a major commitment, really -- to appoint a web designer
or
hosting service. The client is entitled to shop around and think twice
about
hiring someone who will be responsible for what visitors see, how well
the
website functions, and many other issues like flexibility, backup,
bandwidth,
and above all promotion. A great website isn't great unless it has
traffic
-- and it better be the right kind of traffic, i.e., qualified
customers
who are ready to buy the client's product. As advertising guru David
Ogilvy
rightly taught, "It isn't creative unless it sells."
Nosara
realty and Costa Rica Real Estate clients enjoy high ranking website
design
with keyword search terms for house for sale, residential real estate
and
commercial properties Costa Rica.
Our
shop has a distinct philosophy of customer service. It begins with the
notion that simple is good.
The
client shouldn't have to babysit the project, fixing mistakes and
banging
on his desk to get things done promptly. We deliver on schedule. Our
work
meets or exceeds the client's requirement. Every page works. They load
like
lightning, even on a clunky 56K dial-up. Navigation is clear and
unambiguous, without
being gaudy or redundant. If there's a complex database, its output is
concisely
responsive to user queries. We eschew frames, Java scripts, and Flash
images.
Every page runs on every platform, because we author and validate plain
HTML
and simplified, no-frills PHP.
We
typically invest 80+ manhours to develop a website proposal, ready to
demo with key art, server specs, navigation plan, promotion strategy, a
fixed-price
budget and delivery timeline. Unless the client happens to have
stupendous
photos and graphics, we explain what's needed and plan to shoot it, or
acquire
it, or create compelling visual content from scratch. The promo
strategy
might be a wide mix of unrelated (but synergistic) media, including
newsletters,
web forum and Usenet posts, paid advertising, unique SEO keys,
alternate
content channels, and pay-per-click programs.
