The ABC's Of A Successful
Web Presence
- Register Your Domain Name
The Web address you type into your browser to pull up a specific web
site is called its domain name or URL. It is important to register your
domain name before you start to design your site, as the name you select
will determine its look and feel. MIS can handle the registration
process for you from start-to-finish, helping you choose a name to fit
your business needs, and then processing and transmitting the
registration.
- Is your desired domain name still available?
Email
MIS
and we will research the possibilities that are still
available to your company - free of charge.
- Design Your Web Site
Once you have selected your domain name, the next step is deciding if
you want your site designed professionally through MIS, or if you
want to try it on your own. MIS has the technical and creative
talent to successfully plan, build and launch your web site. We work
closely with our clients to create a web site that fits your business
strategy, performance and budget.
Methodology:
Planning: define target audience, purpose, objectives, and policies for
information development and use.
Organization: separate information into page-sized chunks; connect
pages along routes of use and user thinking; provide information,
context, and navigation cues; create a consistent look and feel.
Analysis: check technical construction of web with validation tools;
evaluate information consistency and verify correctness of domain
information.
Implementation: create an extendible directory and file structure; use
HTML tools where helpful; use templates for supporting consistent look
and feel; check consistency in various web browsers.
- Host Your Web Site
As soon as your site is designed, you need to choose a web hosting
company to connect it to the Internet. MIS will help you select
web hosting to fit your unique needs.
- Market Your Web Site
Once you have your business online, the next step is ensuring that
people find you on the Internet. Web sites designed by MIS are
optimized for search engine placement. Our design packages include
manual submission to the most popular search engines and directories.
Methodology:
Planning: create META content for each page suitable for the site's purpose
and target audience.
Submission: manually submit URL's to major search engines and
directories on a weekly basis until listing is verified.
Analysis: track visitors with attention to search engine referrals and
keyword usage.
Modification: alter or rearrange page features and META content for
higher success ratio.
- Maintain Your Web Site
Web sites are never finished! You might wish to feature quarterly news
releases or seasonal specials. MIS maintenance packages will
implement revisions and updates to keep your web site fresh and
appealing to visitors.
