| FAQ | |
| What if I don't own a computer? What is a domain name? What is hosting? I think we need a website. Now what should we do? How long will it take to publish my site? Can you design custom graphics for my site? Can IVS implement custom 3D logos or other 3D effects into the site design? Why does a traffic report matter? What about search engines? I need custom log ins, will they be secure? Can I take credit cards on my website? |
|
| It doesn't matter if you don't have a computer. The benefits of owning a website do not require that you store it on your own personal hard drive, as all of your site's information is stored on our secure server space. | |
| A domain name (sometimes referred to as DN) is the name of your website. An example of this is " www.yourname.com". It is what visitors type into the address bar to open your website. The first step to launching your website is registering your Domain Name. Let us make recommendations for your online name while avoiding pitfalls such as names that are too long or difficult to remember. We take care of this process for you. We will also transfer your name if it has already been purchased. The cost of this varies. | |
| You can think of hosting as a rentable storage locker for your "webstuff". These come with many varieties of features and services. We believe that hosting is one of the most important parts of your online success. This is why we don't believe in taking short cuts in your hosting plan. Hosting with IVS is affordable and reliable. Our connection to the Internet is maintained through multiple backbone connections which allows for nearly zero downtime and quick pages views. | |
| This one is easy! We normally set up a consultation at the IVS Inc. facility. This allows us to discuss what the client wants and needs with all the resources at our fingertips. Just call 270-442-2400 to set up an appointment or request a meeting. | |
| This depends on what you have in mind for your site. Our website development caters to businesses of all sizes and budgets. To build an effective website we must understand the client and their business. This is why one-on-one consultation is important, as it allows our team to develop a custom solution for you. This can be done in our studio or via online conference. Our unique development process involves hundreds of steps to ensure that your website is completed in a timely manner and is fully operational. | |
| Custom graphics are our specialty. We create all sites from scratch which guarantees your site is one of a kind. If you can dream it, we can create it. Look out for companies that create canned sites or pull from large clip art libraries. Clip art is unprofessional and the results tend to look generic. | |
| Yes, customization is the key to having repeat visitation. These graphics are computer intensive to create and often use multiple computers simultaneously. We use the exact same technology as implemented in the HOLLYWOOD movies. View our 3D Illustration Gallery >> |
|
| Traffic reports are great for revealing information dealing with your marketing target. If your site promotion mainly deals with a certain geographical location, you can tell if your advertising is paying off by seeing what locations are hitting. Our advanced statistics program moniters all the activity on your website. Check to see where your hits are coming from, what search engines are finding you, what pages are accessed the most or the least and a slew of other vital statistics. Contact us to receive a demonstration of this powerful tool. |
|
| Every website we design is given the proper codes necessary for the site to be recognized and picked up by search engines. We have many different options to market your website. IVS spends a significant amount of time studying the various nuances of search engines as part of our promotional strategy for this site and the sites of our clients. This experience has given us an advantage in regards to search engine optimization. Allow us to implement these strategies for your web development. |

|
| We provide you with the necessary information to enable you to take credit cards on your website, insuring safe transactions for you and your customers. Our secure server and our recommended credit card processor protect your information as your orders are authorized via the internet.
