Website Design


Churchill & Johnson design good quality websites to suit small businesses, sole trades and medium sized enterprises.  Our goal is to design usable websites which generate a good return on investment for our clients.

To get started, you need to make some choices, as these will affect the cost:

1. Choose whether you want basic or advanced web design

2. Choose whether you want content managemt

3. Decide whether you want to use our hosting or not

4. Work out how many pages you need on your website

5. Decide whether you want any extra functionality
   

Basic Web Design

Website design based on your existing company image. You will need to provide us with copies of your logo and other company literature and we will design a simple website which complements your existing brand.

You should choose this web design level if:

• You want to use your existing logo and company branding on the website
• You are transferring your existing website to our platform and you don't need a new design
  

Advanced Web Design

Website design that is unique to you. This web design level can include elements such as logo design and corporate branding, as well as more advanced web design features.

You should choose this web design level if:

• You need a logo or other company branding
• You have additional artwork requirements

Content Management

We strongly recommend content management as it means that you cankeep your website up-to-date and add loads of new content.  This leadsto:

• higher search engine rankings
• better conversion rate, which means more sales

Content management is the ability to add, edit, and delete content on your website, at any time.  All you need is access to the internet and a modern browser.  It works in the same way as a word processor like Microsoft Word or OpenOffice Writer - you don't need any technical knowledge.  If you get stuck there is help available on our website or you can contact technical support.

Hosting and Support

Hosting means making your website available on the internet, providing you with email, and providing technical support.  If you want to have your website hosted elsewhere, you will not benefit from essential features like the customer enquiry form and the email newsletter facility.

The cost of hosting and support starts at £20+VAT per month, regardless of which design level you choose.  If your website gets very busy, we will increase the cost of the hosting inline with the amount of bandwidth you use.

What else do I get?

Regardless of which design level you need and whether you choose content management, all websites benefit from the following provided you host with us.  If you do not want us to host the website, you will not benefit from features marked "with hosting only":

• 1 free domain name (with hosting only)
• Email address (with hosting only)
• 5 pages setup for you
• Fast turnaround
• Customer enquiry form (with hosting only)
• 99.9% uptime guarantee (with hosting only)
• Enhanced anti-spam technology (with hosting only)
• Google Analytics installation
• Submission to all major search engines

1 free domain name
