10) When and how do you need to pay for the web site?
WebDesignGFX.com will only start to work on your web site after 50% of the total value of the site is paid. We have a one page agreement where we list all the services that we are providing you and we require you to sign it and we also sign it (contract). Unfortunately, we already have had a bad experience when we used to charge at the end of the project. You can view the various sites that we have designed without receiving compensation. The websites are listed on the bottom of the page on the right side corner, where it says: No Pay. We like to call that section the hall of shame. Web Design GFX accepts only checks and bank deposits.
11) Are you new to the whole process of buying web design services?
If yes, we are here to help you.
First organize your ideas on what you really need. Maybe you need a web site for your small business or you want to have a personal web site for yourself. First, sit down and organize your thoughts.
Here I’m going to give you an example on how you should organize your website before you hire a web design company:
Let’s say I have a small business that sales insurance.
It would be perfect if you can organize yourself like this:

1) Flash Intro
Do you want a flash intro? But what is a flash intro? A flash intro is a small pre presentation of your web site; generally it contains pictures and words that advertise your services. Flash is a Macromedia program that lets the web designer design with movement. A Flash intro comes before your home page. Using our example of insurance we are going to have a flash intro that is going to have a few good pictures of people getting insurance for their car. This part is important to think of phrases that are going to catch your viewers (potential clients) attention. For example: Reliable and friendly services… The best prices you are going to find… Use your creative mind. A flash intro cost $100.
2) Home: (this is the first page of your web site)
Here write down everything that is important for your client to know at first. For example, here I’ll have every type of insurance that I offer. I will also write two paragraphs about my company, it is important to introduce your client to your business in a very professional matter. Maybe you can have a few pictures in the first page (maybe you have a few pictures in mind) Also, this is the time for you to think of color schemes and layout preferences. Where do you want your navigation to be? On the top? or on the left part of the web site?
Navigation is where your main links are going to reside.
Here is a sample of a horizontal navigation:
Home – About us – Services – Products – Contact us
Here is a sample of a vertical Navigation:
