Web Site Design Definitions

Basic Web Page Construction: Basic html coding of a page that has already been designed on a word processor. All designs and images are supplied by the customer.
Complex Page Design: Any web page construction that requires Total Web Designs to provide the layout and design
Online Store: If you have products to sell on the internet, then you will need an online store. Setup fees vary depending on the complexity of your store.
Framed Pages: Framed pages are divided in sections. Each section behaves on it's own, and may, or may not have it's own scroll bar. This section of Total Web Designs website is framed (as you have probably noticed).
Interactive Forms: Any form on your website for a visitor to fill out enabling you to receive personal information from this person. Advanced programming (cgi script) is involved with any interactive form, so complex forms can be costly.
Secure Forms: A secure form is an interactive form that is located on a secure server, for purpose of credit card transactions. All information transmitted from this secure server is encrypted, and can not be stolen.
Image Maps: Image maps are pictures that you can click on to go to different pages of your website. One image could have 20 or more (or less) locations to click on. 
Updates: Some websites require updates. Some do not. If your web page is going to change periodically, it will have to be updated or maintained. An example of a page that would need updates is a monthly specials page.
Search Engine Registration: You must register your website with all of the search engines, so that people can find you on the internet. You must also compile keywords and a descriptive content for all of your WebPages. This entire service is completed by Total Web Designs at no cost for any page designed or hosted by Total Web Designs.
Web Site Hosting: In order for your web pages to be connected to the internet, you must have a website "host", or "server". Your host or server is connected to the internet, and assigns you storage space on their computer for your web pages.  The amount of storage space and traffic your site receives varies by Hosting Company, also know as an ISP.  ISP stands for Internet Service Provider.  This is an ongoing cost and is usually quoted on a monthly basis.
Domain Name Registration: If you want your own domain (also known as a virtual domain), then it has to be registered. Total Web Designs will perform this task for you at no cost, if we design or host your site.  With a virtual domain, you have an address like your-company-name.com.  There can be many advantages to having your own domain.
Add-ons:  Add-ons are additional modules that can be added to enhance you site.  We group add-ons into two categories, simple and complex.  Examples of simple add-ons would be a calendar, calculator, guest book, postcard creation, site search, etc.  The more complex add-ons would be a shopping cart, database, catalog, chat room etc.
