Gym.Net offers all services necessary to establish and maintain a successful Internet presence. Regardless of whether you need a small site or an extensive one, whether you want to just display information or conduct transactions online, we have the solutions for you. After the site has been created, we make sure that your site becomes properly publicized to gain maximum visibility on the Internet. We also maintain your site once the site is running. Creating a new Web site requires a close cooperation with the client. Once we have an understanding of the nature of the client's business and its needs we will determine the objectives, analyze the requirements and lay out the structure of the future Web site.
The next step is to register the domain name and establish an appropriate hosting or server solution. As soon as that is done (typically within 2 business days) we create a first, preliminary Web site to bridge the time until the final version is ready. By doing that we can start registering the new site with the major search engines, and the client can begin to use the site (i.e.. for e-mail purposes). Another advantage in this procedure is that the client gets familiar with the new Web site by playing around with it. The feedback from that helps a great deal to have the final Web site exactly tailored to the needs of the client.
Before we publish a Web site we test and tune the site thoroughly on our own server to make sure that the final product is functioning flawlessly. Depending on the volume of the content and the graphical layout of the Web site we'll have the final version ready for approval and subsequent publishing on the Web usually within 2 - 4 weeks.
When you have your own Web site you also want to have your unique domain name that is either the name of your business or your last name, like "www.yourdomain.com". Having such an individualized address is essential for your Web presence. Instead of going through search engines people on the Internet very often just type in the name of the business and expect the the company's Web site to pop up on their browser screens. The right choice of your domain name means greater visibility and, therefore, more potential business from the Web.
We register you domain name for you even if you decide on not having a web site immediately. There is no charge except the registration fees of $135 for two years. Currently there is an unprecedented run for domain names. Get your domain name today!
Very few web sites are located and operated on an individual computer at the location of the business. There are many reasons why even big companies instead of using their own computers and networks have their Web sites hosted on a specialized server outside their company. One is security, i.e. no one can access company data other than what is available on the Web site - meant to be seen by the public. Another is the line and equipment maintenance involved to make sure that the server is running 24 hours a day without any flaws.
Except for intra-company networks ("Intranets") we strongly advise our clients to have their sites hosted. Depending on the size of the Web site we either can host it on our (hosted) server or with the hosting service most suitable to the task.
There is a large number of hosting services competing to host your web site. The prices, features and performance of those services vary greatly and their offers are very often too confusing to be compared side by side. Over the past 4 years while testing quite a number of hosting services we have gained enough experience to help our clients to find the optimal hosting for their site. Even if you already have a Web site hosted it's a good idea to have the service you are using reviewed by an independent professional. Gym.Net's consulting services will gladly do that for you.
Web Design determines the visual layout and structure of a Web site; it is what the user sees. It's the visual presentation of informational content. Some information needs illustration and is enhanced by graphics, other content is more text-centered where graphics would have just a mere cosmetic function.
On the other hand, a site comes alive with illustrations and graphical elements. The Internet is medium with its own rules and standards. A plain textual layout in a Web site is just a matter of the past; but so is the web site with graphical overload. Web Site Engineering relates to the functionality behind the appearance of a Web site. It's what the user doesn't see but what makes the Web site work. It's the coding and programming to guarantee the proper functioning of a Web site.
We do all kinds of programming depending on the requirements of the site. For smaller sites HTML coding and Javascript and CGI programming is sufficient. Larger sites with database, online transaction, and search capabilities require other technologies like Active Server Pages, ColdFusion, VBScript and Java programming. Whatever the task of the job, we match it with skill and experience.
We do not only design Web sites but also do tuning jobs on existing Web sites. There are many sites out on the Web that are visually appealing but lack performance. Most often those faults can be cured by cleaning up the HTML-code and downsizing the graphics. Sometimes, however, the tune-up job is more intricate. Conflicting scripts or lack of browser compatibility are the cause. In other cases a complete re-vamping of the site is necessary to achieve that goal. Whatever your problems of your Web site are we are here to solve them. If you are looking for an out-of-house webmaster to administrate and maintain your existing Web site we provide also those services for you.
The "freshness" of a Web site is an aspect that is often underestimated. Having the same layout and content up on the Web without a change for a long period can not only affect the Web site's ranking in the search engine lists but also its popularity with visitors. People that visit your Web site on a regular basis expect to find something new once in a while. Maintaining a Web site means also to revamp completely from time to time, not just the layout but also the content.
Publicizing your Web site properly so that it is found by anyone on the Internet using search engines is probably more important than any other aspect of Web design. The best looking site is worthless if nobody can find it on the Web. In order to become visible and listed with search engines or directories you have to register a Web site with them. In order to get to the top of the search lists it takes more than using automated registration services or just registering your address with the "Add URL" feature that most search engine feature. It takes intricate coding and content design to achieve maximum exposure. Gym.Net can help you with all that regardless of whether we have designed your page or not.
