Solutions Tech

a) Professionally:

You hire a professional web designer or company to design and build a website from the ground up. If money is no object, this usually provides the highest quality product, one that is completely unique. However, the cost is generally high. You pay a lot of money for X number of pages. It’s not unheard of for the price to be above $1000 for a site. You may then rack up additional charges whenever you want changes made. It will cost you to make changes, but if your website content is static and unchanging—little more than an online business card—it may cost you a lot more. A visitor who returns once to your website and finds it exactly the same as has always been is unlikely to return a second time.

b) Personally

There are plenty of places to access web development resources for free—you can always try to convince that geeky friend of yours to do it. This is obviously the cheaper route, but the results can be ugly at worst, and, at best, simply not as good as they should be. Ultimately, even if you find someone who can create a site for you as a favour, you can’t expect him or her to put too much into it, in the long run. Of course, you could also learn how to do it yourself. The D-I-Y route is time-consuming, though, and almost as much fun as trying to learn a new language by looking through boring instruction manuals written in the language that you can’t yet read.

What’s the solution?

Paying for a professional site can leave you out of the loop (and out of pocket), but starting with a poorly designed website can lead to ruin. You need Solutions.

The truth is that these days, it isn’t just about having a website. It’s about the entirety of an internet presence. The site is important—it’s your hub—but it’s vital that you reach out and connect with people, whether they are clients, suppliers, or simply future fans of you and your work.

Here’s what Solutions can do.

Solutions aims to be a facilitator for your web presence without breaking your budget or sacrificing quality and commitment. We help you build a site from the ground up, update and maintain the site, and tie together all the loose technical ends. In the process, we teach you how to interact easily and effectively with the site on your own.

Our experience and skill in integral areas—coming up with ways and means to produce a constant flow of new content, dealing with things like layout, optimization and formatting for a digital age, and promoting organizations and individuals through the development of web presence—along with our philosophy of sharing information to enable our clients, make us the ideal place for your web journey to begin. We primarily function as consultants, but we also just happen to do most of the grunt work involved, especially in the early going.

Solutions and social media

Social media websites such as Twitter, Facebook, and LinkedIn can create, support, and maintain online communities. Once your site is established as the hub of your internet presence, Solutions shows you how to tap into the frontiers of social media, stay on top of new trends, and  harness the advantages of direct instant feedback, viral cross-promotion, and global communication. We promote connectivity and ease of use to ensure that you improve communication with your contacts in your own preferred manner. The possibilities are endless. You may find that you can replace business meetings and conference calls with a cheaper and more effective way of sharing ideas, or that you’ve found an ideal  platform to showcase your own ever-changing style and voice.

The Solutions Difference

It’s imperative for your website to adapt and evolve. Solutions guides you through the process of creating a dynamic web presence from start to finish. We’ll get you up and running, and then advise you on how to take advantage of new technologies and shed those that no longer serves you as well as they should.

The first step is always the most important. Solutions starts you off on the right foot.
