Web Design By Colchis
|
One of the basic services offered by
Colchis is
website design. The Basic
Colchis Web Design Package consists of a complete
and fully functional website that includes all of the
sections described on the opening webpage for the web design section.
Colchis also has a special Custom
FrontPage Theme Package for organizations already using FrontPage for web design.
Web Design:
You can expect a website designed by
Colchis will focus on
your need to present a high quality professional image that is unique on the Internet.
Colchis delivers a finished package that includes not only all of the key sections
outlined in the Web Design opening webpage but also delivers
all html source code and custom FrontPage Theme graphics. Thus, with what is
delivered by Colchis you are able to take full control over your website while being completely
confident that your website is unique on the Internet.
The fact that you receive a totally custom and unique website from Colchis should not come as
a surprise, but the cost of Colchis web design services will very pleasantly surprise you.
The cost for a complete turnkey FrontPage generated custom website with nine
sections (Main Menu, About, FAQ,
Products/Services, and Links)
is US$750.00 (see Table below for additional package details). For
potential clients launching their website with a web hosting service
providing full FrontPage
Extension Support a Search and a Feedback Form with
a confirmation webpage will be included at no additional charge. One thing that
Colchis does not do
is Frames because a Frame website can be much more difficult to manage than a Non-Frame
website. Also, Colchis encourages website owners to avoid color combinations that would
make printing a webpage difficult. For example, using a white on black color
combination would make it impossible to print a webpage from the website.
Colchis will
use such color combinations solely when the websites owner expresses a desire to make the
printing of website content impossible.

Basic Website Package |
|
Section/Item |
Details/Description |
| Main
Menu |
The main menu provides
the key navigation information for your website plus enough detail that will encourage
your visitors to explore the rest of your website. |
| About |
Your
About webpage provides
your visitors with basic information on your company plus anything else you want to share with
your visitors regarding who you are and why they would want to spend
more time viewing your website. In writing the text you should keep the content
below 100K to ensure that the webpage loads fairly quickly. A lot can be said in 100K of
text. You might want to include a single photo on the webpage as part of
the 100k. |
| FAQ |
This is your chance to
provide an answer for every question you have ever had regarding your
website, your experience, your products and services,
and your business. As with the About webpage, it is best to keep your
text content under 100K. The format used for the FAQ webpage will be like that of
the question and answer section found on the Colchis website. |
Products
and
Services |
Detail on your
products and services will
be presented in Table format. In the event you offer many products
and services there will be links to additional webpages. In
preparing the text for the Products and Services section of your
website remember to group the content in a logical and easily
understood format. |
| Links |
The links webpage for
your website can be a very important asset for you because it is where you offer space for
reciprocal links to other website owners. You may want to link to websites of other
businesses such as your that are located in different parts of the country (or world) or you may want
to link to various directories and search engines. Colchis will accept your link
suggestions and offer a few just in case you do not know of any. When your website
is designed by Colchis you will be given the option to show the Golden
Fleece Award for Excellence on your website. |
| FrontPage
Support |
Your website will be
designed with FrontPage. Your best choice in a web hosting service will be a service
that provides FrontPage support, but Colchis will provide a means for you to publish your
Colchis designed website even without FrontPage support. In any event you will receive
the complete source html for your website, including the files necessary for your custom
FrontPage Theme. |
| Custom
FrontPage Theme |
Each
Colchis designed
website includes a totally unique custom FrontPage Theme that will be yours to keep.
The Theme files will be given to you along with the rest of the source for your
website. The custom FrontPage Theme used for your website will be yours, and yours
alone. |
| Custom
Website Banner and Button |
Colchis will design a custom
banner and button for your website, which you will provide for anyone wanting to link back
to your website. The website banner will be 468x60 pixels in size, and the website
button will be 88x31 pixels in size. Both banner and button will be based on the
FrontPage Theme used for your website. |
| Initial
Website Promotion |
Colchis will submit your
website URL to a core group of not less than twenty search engines immediately following
the initial publishing of the website to the Internet. You can do additional website
promotion and submissions using resources found in the Promotion
section of the Colchis website. |
| Golden
Fleece Award for Excellence |
Upon your request
Colchis
will present you with the Golden Fleece Award for Excellence. It is always nice to be able to show
that someone appreciates the quality of your website. |
|
All together your website could have as many as sixteen (16)
or twenty (20) webpages for the US$750.00 package price. What is more important is that what you receive will enable
you to completely take control over your website without the need for any other ongoing
maintenance fees. Whether you have your own copy of FrontPage or you use something
like notepad to update your webpages, you can rest comfortably knowing that you are in
control of your own presence on the Internet. |

Microsoft FrontPage98 and FrontPage2000 web design software include
a Theme feature, which enables web designers to easily apply a Theme to an entire website.
Microsoft bundles approximately sixty (60) Theme examples with the FrontPage
product, and there are several third-party developers offering additional FrontPage
Themes to web designers. Many of the Microsoft and third-party Themes are quite
attractive and popular, but virtually anyone that has any experience on the Internet will
immediately recognize not only a Microsoft bundled Theme but also many of the third-party
Themes. Microsoft also bundles a Theme Designer with FrontPage,
which enables
developers to create totally unique custom Themes that can be applied to individual
websites. If you are currently using either a FrontPage Theme that was bundled with
Microsoft FrontPage or purchased from a third-party, you have also probably seen that same
Theme applied to someone else's website. Perhaps you know about the Theme Designer,
but have not had the time or patience to create your own unique FrontPage Theme. The
Basic Colchis Web Design Package includes a unique FrontPage Theme with each website
designed. Colchis also offers an unbundled Custom FrontPage Theme Package for anyone
that already has a website designed with FrontPage. Please note that purchasing a
Custom FrontPage Theme Package from Colchis will be more expensive than the cost of a
third-party FrontPage Theme, but remember that the Custom FrontPage Theme you receive from
Colchis will be exclusively yours. You will not see your FrontPage Theme anyplace else
on the Internet unless someone stole it from you. It is important also to note that
you can have a Custom FrontPage Theme for your website even though your webhosting
service does not provide full FrontPage support.

Custom
FrontPage Theme Package |
|
Theme Design |
Your Custom FrontPage
Theme will be created from custom created graphics using the FrontPage Theme Designer.
Each Custom FrontPage Theme consists of not less than 25 Theme elements. You
should be prepared to provide input on font, color scheme and basic design theme for your
Custom FrontPage Theme. You will also have options for banner, button and bullet
element design. The files delivered to you will include not only the .cab, .inf and
.elm files generated by the FrontPage Theme Designer but also a .zip file containing the
basic image elements for the Theme. |
|
Link Banner |
You will also receive a
custom link banner based on your Custom FrontPage Theme that you can provide to other
website owners wanting to add a link to your website on their website. |
