Did you know that over half of website visits are on mobiles and tablets? It is extremely important to provide good user experience for everyone, no matter what device they are using. That is why I make sure that all my sites are responsive.
Like a good recipe, a website needs spices to make it better. Forms, automated invoicing, appointment scheduling, email and marketing software, blogging, dynamic content, image and coding optimization, job posting, redirects and responsive navigation are on the menu.
Your website will be developed taking into account different browsers and their differences when it comes to coding. This is important to reach all of your potential customers, no matter what browser they use: Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari and even Opera are tested.
Your site will be hosted on my own super fast cloud server. This way, you don’t need to worry about the maintenance and background work that a server requires. You can learn more about this topic in the FAQ section. You can also host your site on your own hosting if you wish to do so.
To ensure that your website continues to run fast and perform well, I offer a maintenance package. This includes: updating the software that runs your site (PHP, WordPress, plugins, themes, etc.), integrating security and anti-spam systems as needed, general monitoring of site functionality and backups so you don’t lose anything.
Every website project includes a FREE SSL CERTIFICATE (padlock in the link bar). This certificate protects your data by encrypting every bit of information. It also confirms your identity to assure your visitors that you are the real business or person. Plus, it helps with your site’s SEO. Since 2018, Google flags websites that don’t have SSL as « insecure ».
Hosting: what does this term mean in the web world?
When you go to an Internet address, a server sends you the digital information (ones and zeros) that make up the website for that address. In order to be able to send the website to you, the server keeps this information in storage.
So your website resides on a server. Without a server, your site cannot reach the Internet and no one can access it.
This is where hosting costs come from. All websites pay to be hosted on a server to be connected to the Internet.
There are three main categories of hosting: shared, cloud, and dedicated.
Imagine yourself in your new home. To save money, you decided to rent a basement in a house with 11 roommates. It’s not luxury, but you figured it was a good deal and you could work from home.
You get out of the shower one morning, get dressed, go to your kitchen to make yourself some coffee, but you realize the pot is empty. One of your roommates finished it. Still tired and without coffee, you come to your room to do your daily work. You turn on your computer and open your job portal which takes five minutes to download.
Suddenly you see a gum that was not there before on the P key on your keyboard. Ew! You take it off and go on working, you think it must have been one of your roommates. Two minutes pass and you hear someone in the kitchen practicing their opera as loud as they can. You can no longer think. You’re trying to ignore distractions when all of a sudden your computer shuts down. A roommate turned off the power to do some renovations!
Your day is wasted, you tell yourself that it is impossible to work in these conditions and that you should have done more research before buying your home.
Shared hosting is a bit like this story. You share resources with hundreds of other people who are on the same server. It only takes one of those hundreds who has an unhealthy website or gets attacked by a virus and everyone on that server loses power. What does that mean? Your website is slow, your SEO suffers, and you are losing potential customers.
Now, let’s move on to the best option: cloud hosting.
So you decide to do your research well and you find yourself a beautiful condo in a beautiful neighborhood. Besides, it’s not that much more expensive than the basement!
You wake up on a sunny morning this time around in your beautiful modern bedroom. You go to make yourself a coffee to see that the owner left you 12 kinds of luxury coffee as a welcome gift! You choose the caramel one and sit down at your desk for the day.
You turn on your computer and open your work portal. This time it downloads in 0.18 seconds with your high speed internet included with your condo. Wow!
So you get to work. You take a sip of your hot, cool coffee and feel the fumes of caramel enter your nostrils. Sun rays pass through your glass balcony door and gently touch your back for comfort.
You spend the rest of the day working very efficiently and go to bed in the evening, satisfied with your new condo.
Sounds a lot better, right?
Well, cloud hosting is like that. We feel good as in the clouds. You have your own resources that no one else can touch. Your website is super fast, which your users and search engines love.
This is the type of hosting that I use for all my projects, including the website you are on now. Your site will be hosted on my own cloud server. So you don’t need to be wary of maintenance and background work.
After half a decade of hard work, you have risen through the ranks of your job. You have found a partner and you are expecting a baby.
You have great successes, but now is the time to take it to the next level, especially with the coming family.
So you decide to move out of town to a big, multi-story house.
You now have plenty of space to start your family. You can do anything you couldn’t do in your condo. You have your own garage to park your car, you have a private backyard to barbecue with your friends and possibly play with your children. With your neighbors far away, you can play your music as loud as you want.
You are limitless in the things you can do.
With dedicated hosting, you own your own server. You can grow your resources unlimitedly for what you need.
This type of hosting is only necessary for large businesses that receive hundreds of thousands of visitors per month.
If you think you will eventually reach this level, but don’t want to invest the large amount of money right away, don’t worry. You can start on cloud hosting for several years and when an improvement is needed, the transfer is easy.
SEO (search engine optimization) is the action of optimizing a website for search engines (Google, Bing, Yahoo, etc.).
When our sink breaks, we will search our cell phone or computer for a plumber in our area. Plumbers who have a well-optimized website will appear first in the results list. Those who have not done SEO, fall on the second, third, fourth page that you never visit. So those who did their job (or hired me) get all the leads, and those who haven’t get nothing.
So how can one optimize their website for search engines?
There are several things we can do. To name a few: quality of content, website speed, presence of an SSL certificate, choice of hosting, social media shares, keywords, external and internal links.
We know all about these types of software that lets you create a free website on your own.
However, what these companies don’t tell you is that in order to be able to give you this, they reduce their costs elsewhere. The creativity and originality of your website is limited, the hosting is slow and unstable, integrations are limited, SEO is not strong. Plus, startup plans put ads on your site for their benefit. This is not very cash money.
By hiring a professional web designer like me, you can be sure to have a fresh, modern website with good, fast hosting. You are going to have an SEO advantage over the people who use this software and you are not going to have unwanted advertising on your website.
