Q:
How interactive is the Internet?
A: Unlike an ad in the local phone book which gives
only your business address and phone number, the Internet allows people to interact
directly with you and your company. For example - you may dedicate part of your
page to giving directions to your store from anywhere in the local area or even
anywhere in the world. You could list specific items that you sell so customers
know what you have. As a matter of fact, they don't even need to come inside your
store anymore - they can buy products directly from your website!
Some other possibilities
are: You can provide an online tour of your company and products, show your company's
history, play interactive trivia or games for prizes, or initiate special online
promotions to spice up your website. The Internet provides an opportunity to always
put your best face forward and interact with people in ways not possible just
a few years ago. Remember, there are now 75+ million people online, and they are
all potential customers, 24-hours-a-day, seven days a week. Q:
What are the two basic types of webpages?
A: There are two basic types of webpages - business
and personal. The difference is simple - business sites sell a product while promoting
a company's images and values, while personal sites promote ideas but do not sell
anything. These websites vary from one page advertisements to an intricate web
of thousands of pages. Q: What is the #1 reason to
be on the Internet? A: Customer
Convenience! The Internet is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Although your
company may only be open during regular day and evening business hours, the Internet
never closes, allowing your company and products to be viewable by anyone at any
time. Q: Do people really use the Internet?
A: DEFINITELY YES! Over 75 million people are
now connected to the Internet with 760 new households online EVERY HOUR! People
are using this fantastic technology to look for many things: entertainment, news,
restaurants, gift ideas, and possibly you and your company. Because the Internet
is accessible from the comfort of home, more and more people are using the Internet
to shop for and purchase the products they need. Q:
How does advertising on the Internet compare to other forms of advertising?
A: There is no question that television, radio,
and newspaper advertising works. But ads in these media are very expensive and
have strict size and length restrictions. In stark contrast, the Internet
is an advertiser's dream. The Internet is inherently designed to provide as much
room and as much time as you need to promote your company and the values it stand
for. For a very reasonable cost, it allows your company to supply vast amounts
of information to current and potential customers. In addition, your company has
the capability to sell products directly to customers while they are reading your
ad online. Try that with a television or newspaper ad! The Internet
has quickly become one of the best (and most cost-efficient) way to increase the
visibility of any company - whether big or small. Quite simply - For about the
price of one newspaper ad per month, your company can have a significant presence
on the Internet. This trend toward Internet advertising is evident today as many
television and newspaper ads refer potential customers to a company's website.
In short, the Internet has revolutionized the way most companies advertise
and conduct business. Q: Does Avatek Web Design create
personal webpages too? If so, what are the benefits?
A: A personal webpage is put up to further the sharing of knowledge
and/or information. There are millions of people on the Internet right now who
have personal webpages. They tend to gather into collections of similar pages,
kind of like a network of neighborhoods. Neighborhoods where people share what
they know with one another. You will be surprised to find how many advantages
there are in having a personal webpage. Some of these are: ·
If you have pictures of yourself or of your family members (such as a new born
baby), you can place them online so that relatives anywhere in the world can view
them. · You can put your resume online for potential employers to
see your credentials. · You can put some of your amateur poetry or
music online and share it with everyone. · If you hold knowledge in
a particular field, you can share that information with the world. If
you enjoy browsing the web and have many places you enjoy visiting, you can have
a page that lists your favorite sites so others may enjoy. Q:
