WHY US?
( 1 ) We have been in business since 1989 ( 21 years )
( 2 ) We have been in the web site business since 1996, at the very “start” of commercial use.
( 3 ) We have an actual business location that YOU can visit
( 4 ) In our experience (for 15 years) 99 out of 100 individuals, by themselves, get tired of all the work in less than 6 months, then you are stuck, so watch who you hire. If several people can add/edit the content, no one person gets burnt out. We also will add/edit your site for you, since we do it every day we can do it 5 times as fast and your cost per hour is about $8, you can easily afford a web site, and it usually pays for itself for the year in the first month.
( 5 ) We maintain a minimum of 10 days back ups, all off the server, plus off the site, we do NOT back up over yesterdays file, located on the SAME drive as the site, like most providers. You know how much trouble YOUR computer causes you, so you DON’T want your web site to have the same problems. Each page of the site also has a click on link to “restore” to the last 10-20 changes at least.
(6) We keep up with the LATEST software for the internet with YOU in mind and totally test it before we offer it to you our customers. Our servers are “state of the art” located in Lansing MI (very safe environment) and contain ONLY our customers. Anyone can get a cheap host and install wordpress, ONLY a few can provide the BEST templates and plug-ins that work and you do not have to find out the hard way that they don’t.
(7 ) With “wordpress” our content manager engine of choice you can add or make changes or “anyone” can, that you authorize, from any computer in the world. Over 25 million people use the same engine “word press” but we arrange it to do a web site instead of just a blog, also we try and install the “best” plug-ins which there are over 2800 to choose from ( more daily ).
Check out the site of the “engine” developer “wordpress” that this site is created with and that we use exclusively - click here (close new page when done)
Some of the 25+million users of our content manager engine
ebay, yahoo, new york times, people mag, CNN, USATODAY, Nikon, Pepsi, BlackBerry, Ben & Jerry’s, Boston College, Samsung, Carnival Cruise Lines, The Wall Street Journal, Kobe Bryant, Wheaton College
( 8 ) The plug-ins do everything from spam free e-mail contact us forms, photo galleries, mailing lists, shopping carts, polls and about anything you can think of. We spent 8 months working with this before we offered it to our customers. We find hundreds of things that do not work at all or don’t work as specified, so you don’t have to.
We have an SEO “search engine optimization” module included with the editor that tells you what and exactly how much to enter on each page to get the highest rating in search engines. ( Many people are paying $39/mo and up for this – it is FREE to you ).
We use the best photo gallery plug in we found over 30-40 others, you can create several galleries on each page, slide shows, re-size images later, re-size and redo thumbnails later – all at the same time, plus many many other options. You can .zip up a entire folder of images and upload the .zip file and make a gallery in about 2-3 minutes total.
( 9 ) We can also manage your web name with the registrar so you do not have to keep a “current” credit card number on file. It is automatically renewed 3-4 weeks before it is due from our escrow account which is automatically refilled. If your name ever expires (your site goes down immediately) plus you may or not be notified. For the next 45 days it is $150 min. to renew it and after then you lost it and your name is gone 99% of the time plus you site is down forever.!
PLEASE, if we do not manage your web name make sure YOU own it, not the host, not the web guy or not the registrar.- check it for free – click here – just close new page when done. We run into this problem weekly with new customers.
( 10 ) VERY IMPORTANT our web sites work with ALL the internet browsers, not just Internet Explorer – latest figures 46% are using fire fox and MANY are using Safari which comes on all apple products.

WHY OUR WEB SITE MANAGE SYSTEM?
With our on site editor WE can maintain your site in 1/5 the time it takes with normal methods or YOU can do some or all yourself, a friend, relative etc. no mater where they live.”
The SEO “search engine optimization” plug in that works “with” all the search engines is better than the majority of ”SEO service providers” and cost you NOTHING, most of them charge $39/mo and up.
The editor we use has been around since 2003 and has over 25 million users with 2,800+ plug-ins ( more daily ), at the bottom of each page you can restore to an earlier (several days) version of only that page, if you really screw up.
It even does all the heavy lifting for you as it automatically creates the navigation buttons as you create pages, most time consuming thing in web sites.
WE provide a minimum of 10 days backup of your entire web site and e-mail accounts, usually have about 20 days on file. Your site is backed up every night to another server and to another location automatically. Most other hosts back up on the same ONE drive and write over the day before backup – drive fails you loose it all. We also have “mirrored” drives which means if one drive goes bad the other takes over, it is replaced and the other drive copies everything to it. PLUS at the bottom of “each” page is a backup copy of just that page, so YOU can restore it “to before”, if you really screw up, it does an automatic backup and keeps the last 20 revisions or more. Just click on the link and your page is like it was before.
