Now that you've decided to have a site designed, what do you have to do?
1. Research the net. Take a look at other sites to see what you
like and don't like. Look around and get some ideas of what is out
there. Google.com is an excellent search engine. For authors, take a
look at some of the collections of author websites available on Yahoo under Arts
& Literature, Authors.
2. For authors, get your biography written (or cribbed from a book
jacket). For small businesses, write a short, comprehensible description
of your products and your company.
3. If you have images, photos, or drawings, let the designer know what
you have. Wallace Webs is not a graphic design firm. We design web
sites. We are able to design backgrounds, navigation bars/buttons, line
dividers, and adapt and manipulate images either from the web or that are
scanned in. Simple graphics are well within our ability, but more
complicated ones are not. If desired, we can put you in touch with some
excellent graphic designers who can design graphics for you. Take a look
at our portfolio of sites.
4. Sit down with a piece of paper and write
down the things that would be important for you to have on the site.
5. Realize that a properly designed site
can be modified, expanded, contracted, or changed to meet your needs.
Nothing is ever written in stone! If you realize you need a new page down
the road, don't worry. We can do it.
