About our website
Yes, we mean this site you are currently looking at.
The site has been conceived as an important tool to:
- Provide help and on-going support to our potential and existing clients
- Ensure charges for our services are kept as affordably low as possible
The public area of the site - as seen by all visitors - provides extensive help and guidance on the various processes necessary in setting up a first web site, in defining the objectives and nuts-and-bolts of a site re-design, and the special considerations involved in web sites for not-for-profit organisations.
By reading through the guidelines, checklists and articles in relevant categories of our Help section, potential clients for our web design, hosting and other services will get a clear idea of the aspects that they will need to define, set up and generally take care of in their role as the site owner of any web design commission.
In conjunction with the detailed information on the various services we provide, our design fees, and the cost of facilities such as web hosting and domain name registration, we have tried to give a comprehensive overview of everything involved for the client in setting up a web site and commissioning a design.
It is known from experience that the more our clients understand the type of input needed from them in the web design process, the greater will be their benefits and rewards from the site designs we create for them.
Additionally, by making all this client-orientated information readily available on our site, it is intended to significantly reduce the time-consuming individual correspondence and other communication usually involved in the web design process, especially when dealing with new clients. By this means we can reduces our prices so that, as nearly as possible, we charge only for the rime we spend on making the design itself, without the usual and substantial additional administrative and personal meetings costs that are added in to a web design commission.
The site is thus central to our mission to make a good web site affordable to everyone who needs one.
Once a client commissions us to design their site, we provide them with the details to login to the private Clients Area of the site, where a number of useful resources are available both to facilitate communications, delivery of content, approval of designs etc. during the course of the design process and to provide on-going help, support, troubleshooting etc. after a site is published.
Once again, by conducting communication and interaction between ourselves and our clients as much as possible via our web site, we further greatly reduce normal overheads of web design work while simultaneously providing clients with a straightforward, always available online support services that is focussed on the long-term success of their published sites, and the resolution of any questions, problems or extra requirements they may have at any time in the future.
As both the public and private areas of our site are constantly updated and augmented to reflect the feedback received from potential and existing clients alike, we intend www.suws.co.uk to become a prime source of information, assistance and practical support for all non-technical present and future web site owners.
