We have broken down in 6 easy steps,
the process we take to

what is involved in setting up your website. By working out your requirements such as, the
number of pages, photographs, feedback forms, etc. you will
receive a more accurate price when requesting a quote for your

Firstly, to organise a
Domain Name. A Domain
Name is your online identity, a unique name that
personalizes your website address and your email
addresses. A Domain points to a server on the
internet which has an IP Address.
Web
Address Example:
www.yourname.com.au
(e.g. www.visualeyezwebdesign.com.au).
You need to decide
whether your name is going to be a
.com
( there are no restrictions as far as your name
goes) or if it is a .com.au.
name ( you can only use a business name that is
registered to you and the name has to be very close
to your business name for it to be accepted). It's
best to think of 3 different names, in preference of
order as one might already be registered to someone
else.
You become the full owner of the domain name once
you have registered it. Visualeyez can check to see if any are
available for you.
Also your website needs to have a host. A Web Host is
where your website is stored.
Your website is a 24-hour
representation of your business, your image,

specifications on each product.
Determining how many pages your site will
contain will help you get a more accurate cost of getting
your site designed. We have given you a diagram of a basic
website structure below to determine what type of pages you
may need to add. For example, an order form will add a page,
more products can add several pages and so on.
A good cost effective way to reduce your costs in building a
website is to supply all the content required, such as
logos, photographs, graphics & text. If you have already
catalogues, brochures, price lists in place most of your job
is done.
A photo or image that is of good
quality can make a good impression on visitors
to your website. When choosing or taking photos for
your site, try for a resolution of (300dpi)
or higher. Acceptable formats are: jpeg, gif
or tif files. If you cannot provide these formats,
send us what you have and we will do our very best
to convert them into a suitable format. Professional photographs cannot
be used as they are copyright material, unless
permission is obtained in writing.
Your images can be emailed to us. If
all your
images or Pdf files are larger than 30 megabytes, it is
recommended that you burn them onto a CD and send
them direct.
All written content to be
supplied by you in text format in either Microsoft
Word or from a basic text editor such as notepad.
Plan ahead the colour schemes,
backgrounds, the look & feel you want to achieve, whether
you are after a theme to your site, such as corporate theme,
elegant, retro, or just plain and simple. Also if you are
wanting extra visual effects for your site, Visualeyez can
