Thank you for considering Hot House Media for your website design project. Deciding which web development company to trust with your project is not an easy task, but choosing Hot House Media is the right choice. We love to help small businesses establish or improve their image and web presence. Whether your company is large or small, we have the time, expertise, and creativity to be an integral part of your web marketing solution. We offer two types of website design... Static and Dynamic.
A static website is a website that is written entirely in HTML. Each web page is a separate document and there are no databases or external files that are drawn upon.
This means that the only way to edit this type of website is to go into each page and edit the HTML. You would have to do this yourself using a web page editor such as FrontPage or Dreamweaver, or pay your web developer to make updates for you. Please click here to view an example of this site as a "Static" website.
A dynamic website is written using more complex code — such as PHP or ASP — and has a greater degree of functionality. For instance, many dynamic websites can be controlled by a content management system. This means that you will potentially be able to make updates without needing any knowledge of HTML or any website software.
Each page of a dynamic website is generated from information stored in a database or external file. And the content management system that you may use to maintain your website directly modifies this stored information. This site is an example of a "Dynamic" website. It is written mostly in the PHP scripting language and uses the Joomla Content Management System.
What you can expect with every website design project:
- Great, fast loading, modern design.
- Private, in progress viewing during design and development.
- Optional Content Management System² to easily edit your website.
- Basic search engine optimization to help you rank better.
- Stock photography² is available as needed during design, to help establish site theme.
- Site map, at no additional charge, to help visitors find what they are looking for. A site map also helps search engine spiders index your site, therefore you rank better in internet searches.
- User friendly / search engine friendly navigation menu.
- Email / Contact / Information request forms² to allow visitor feedback and inquiries.
- Upload to your website host when going live.
- Manual submission to major search engines.
- Free minor¹ changes for two weeks following launch of new site.
- Ongoing support for questions and issues.
Our core business is website design and web development. We’ve branched out to offer other services and we do them well, however; our main purpose always has been and will continue to be website design. Hot House Media started from an idea, grew in to a purpose, became a goal, and then a reality. In that journey, we’ve helped many businesses and individuals along a similar path, and met a lot of great people in the process.
Being a small business, we know that timelines and budgets are important and not an optional guideline to follow. We respect your time and your budget.
