Frequently Asked Questions

Web hosting allows businesses, organizations, and individuals to make their websites or apps visible on the internet. Whether they're using shared hosting, a virtual private server, or a dedicated server; every website is hosted on a server. The only way for a website to be visible on the internet is if it's hosted by a web hosting service provider, also known as a web host. In order to find a website, you type the domain name (or URL) into your browser. Your computer will then connect to the server where the website is hosted, and the webpage is delivered onto your screen.
We are asked this question often, and there isn't a simple answer to this question. There are a lot of variables that affect the overall cost of a custom website, including:
  • Website Design: The initial design of a website that the development team turns into a functioning website.
  • Website Development: Development of the website design, website pages, and requested features. The features of a website are where the price of a website can begin to change drastically. Every feature has to be designed, developed, tested, and implemented into the website; with some features taking weeks to complete depending on their complexity.
  • Domain & Hosting: Before launching your website you will have to select a domain name and a hosting package.
  • Website Launch: Installation, Setup, and Bug Testing. Once we have completed the setup and testing, we will launch your website for the world to see.

A domain name refers to your website address, also known as your URL. This is what users type in a browser's search bar to directly access your website. A domain name is unique and cannot be shared between different sites. The domain name also follows the @ in a email address. Example: www.yahoo.com & YourName@yahoo.com
