Services include resizing and optimizing of your photos, logo designs, links,
pop-ups, text copy and edit, shopping cart, blog set-up, search engine submission,
and flash slide-shows. I am also happy to redesign pre-existing
sites. The site need not necessarily be one selling artistic products
or services, though my design sensibilities are best for those who
need image-rich, aesthetically designed sites.
Pricing
for web services are dependent upon client needs. If any of the designs
viewed within my portfolio are of interest,
it will serve the client to have me create something similar (or combine
preferences from different sites). This way, I don't have to "re-invent
the wheel" with each site, which saves me time, and you money.
However, if you have specific ideas about the look and organization
of your site, I am willing to meet your preferences. To determine the cost
of a custom-built site, please fill out my questionaire, and I will get back to you with a bid. Or, if you live in the Portland area, you can contact me
for a free consultation. Click here for a basic how to

Web Hosting
For those on a tight budget, I offer free
web hosting within the domain of 4RealArts. Your web address for this
service will begin with www.4realarts.com, followed by your name, or
organization. I can also set you up to have your own domain name (i.e.
"www.myname.com"), for which you will need to buy a hosting plan with a web server. The simplest way
to check if a domain that you want is available, go to www.register.com
(but buy your domain through your host, it will be cheaper!)
The price for a hosting company to host your domain varies according to the company. They begin at about $72 per year through reliable hosting agencies.
The one I use and trust is gate.com. I have a client who has used ICD-Soft
for years, with no complaints. It offers significantly less webspace
and traffic, but is a very good deal for the money! The basic info about
each company is compared below. Both offer plans with no setup fees,
24/7 tech support, and a 30-day money-back guarantee. For more info
on their plans, visit their websites by clicking their logo.

One great way to increase web traffic and sales is to have a newsletter for web updates or promotions which the viewer can sign up for on your site.
