This section explains in great detail everything that you need to know about getting started. There is nothing here that you can't do yourself, providing you have the time to learn and implement the steps outlined.

If you'd like us to handle all this for you, we have a specialist Site Marketing Set Up Service that covers all the key fundamentals outlined in this section. The cost varies from business to business, but £450 plus VAT is a good guide price to cover all the fundamentals, and you'll know that everything has been set up properly and professionally.

After all, how much do you expect to make via your website over the next 12 months?

In practice, everything to do with the Internet is an "ever changing process of continual evolvement". Our policy is to make you as self sufficient as you want to be and make you aware of what needs to be done. You can either implement things yourself, or we can set it all up for you and monitor you, and be here in the background as a bureau style Internet department whenever you need help.

The good news is that you can introduce and manage new options at a pace that suits you. But if you want your website to be more successful, things won't start changing until embrace this kind of activity.

It should take about a week to set everything up for you. Although each component has a "price tag", we'll always try and look at ways of pooling the key essential together and doing them all for a lower all-in price. The trouble is, whilst we can save you money on certain things, there are others that you can't avoid doing if you want it to work, and they either take time and/or money to set up properly. It's like building a house without putting in the foundations properly.
