Web hosting services work by providing high-powered computers (web servers) with a high-speed network for your website to live on. You pay a fee to rent a space on these servers that will connect your website to the internet.
I can organise the hosting server, which renews annually.
I can create up to 5 email addresses for you and send you the details for setting up email in your mail client (Windows Outlook, Apple Mail, Thunderbird).
A domain name is the name you register for your website address. Example: peregrineweb.co.nz
Most New Zealand businesses use the suffix .nz or .co.nz, which is a local domain. Most international or US businesses use the suffix .com, which is a global domain.
I can design a business card design to match your website, with the same graphics and colour scheme to provide consistency within your brand.
When you get a logo designed, you receive files suitable for web and files suitable for print. I have a large collection of vector images for implementation in your design. If you want specific elements/icons I don't have, you can browse DespositPhotos and I can purchase them to use.
I can also create a complimentary Google Plus, Facebook, Twitter cover/profile images using your logo.
It's ideal if you want a flyer design to match your website design. I can use the same colours and images in your flyer.
Web forms provide an easy way for your website users to send their details to your email.
Add one to your contact page to make it user-friendly, protect from spam and clients will email straight into your inbox, not your junk mail folder. You can use forms for newsletter sign-ups, registrations, surveys, feedback, bookings, orders. You can even receive attachments and payments.
Contact FormA carousel rotates a selection of slides on your homepage to show off your high-quality images or your important messages.
When you add a picture gallery to your page, your users can click on the thumbnails to bring up the full size pictures.
When creating a gallery, my services include thumbnail creation, optimisation of the images for web. Optimising pictures for web will make them load faster and they sometimes need renaming for clarity and internet usability.
If on a search-optimised page, I will rename files with descriptive 'Google-friendly' names and add descriptive alt tags to each one.
I can create you an account with Statcounter, where you have comprehensive statistics on your visitors. You can view traffic numbers, see which pages they are visiting and see where they are referred from.
I use responsive design for all my sites. The site is optimised to be used in mobile, tablet and pc screens. So, no matter what size screen you're viewing it from, it will fit the screen and be readable and usable.
It's important to have a mobile-friendly site for SEO, as it is a ranking factor for Google's mobile searches. Mobile-friendly sites are shown before other sites.
Google maps show your customers exactly where your business is located. They can zoom in and out and look at the surrounding area. No need for you to provide your own map when you can have your very own google map on your website.
I can create your cover photos and profile photos with the correct dimensions for Google Plus, Facebook, Twitter or any other social network.
Links to your social networks such as Facebook, Google Plus and Twitter can be added to your page. They usually go in your footer at the bottom of each page and with your contact information.
This is the little icon that appears in the address bar and bookmark menu in your browser.
New websites will show up on Google within a couple of weeks.
To get a good starting position in Google's ranking, the site needs to be search-optimised.
Your chosen keywords are entered into the site's metatags and help with search engine optimisation. I also add your site description, which is visible in searches.
I have a selection of stock photos and illustrations for all sorts of industries that I can use for your site. They can give a professional look to a website. If you want to shop for your own stock photos, you could visit:
Deposit Photos or Shutterstock
I edit and enhance the main photos for the site, such as slider photos, Homepage feature photos, profile photos and product photos, so your site looks it's best.
