WHAT'S THE CATCH?
...I'm glad you asked! It's quite simple, really - you supply the images (pictures and/or graphics) and the text and this
helps keep the price down. I optimize your images for the web and slide them, along with your text, into a predesigned
template, which also keeps the price low. That's it - that's all! You get only what you need and you pay only for what
you get. There are no hidden costs, but please read the obligatory fine print at the bottom of the page.
WONDERING IF YOU NEED A WEB SITE?
Do you need a sign in front of your establishment? There's an old expression in commerce that says, "A business with
no sign is a sign of no business." Just as consumers expect to see signs advertising business locations, increasingly,
they expect businesses to have web sites - even if those businesses do not conduct trade on the Internet. The web site
has become part of the business image. Your web site is a snap shot of your business - an online brochure, giving consumers an opportunity to
pay a brief virtual visit to your business without leaving the comfort of their own home. Providing a snap shot of your
business is what OE Brochure is all about. Full multi-page web sites can also be created - it's your call.
WHY SO CHEAP?
This package is inexpensive - but it is certainly not cheap! Frequently, web designers add a lot of bells and whistles
and cute design tricks that may impress other web designers, but usually are not noticed by the average web site visitor.
Research has shown time after time that the vast majority of people use the Internet to find information. They don't look
for cute design and bells and whistles. OE Brochure will supply you with a clean, attractive and functional web site which, along with your content, will
provide visitors with a pleasant experience and give them the information they really want. Want text and images prepared for you? No problem - let's talk!
WHAT DO YOU GET FOR $185.00?
You get a one-page web site with up to three images (pictures and/or graphics provided by you) and up to four hundred words
of text (provided by you). Storage and hosting for one year on my server is included. Plus, you get a unique, dedicated web address
and one email account that carry your business name.

WANT MORE? ...AN EXTRA PAGE? ...ADDITIONAL IMAGES OR TEXT? NO PROBLEM!!
When you buy a car, it comes with a base price. If you want air conditioning - it costs more. Want a radio? Add a few more dollars.
Put in floor mats and the price goes up again. The same idea applies here - it requires time and resources to add features to a web
page. Here are the more common additions you may want to consider. Prices include set up, installation and service for one year.

Proof reading, copy writing and graphics design services are also available
Search engine optimization (SEO) and search engine submission (SES) are time consuming, so they too cost more. These are listed as extra
items because with many small businesses, it does not matter if people on the other side of the planet can find them on the world wide
web. Often, business owners just want their virtual doors to be open so local people can visit when it is convenient. That being said, SEO and SES
do make it easier for local, regional and national visitors to find you. At the very least, web sites should be submitted to directories -
special interest directories in particular. This is something you can do for yourself at little or no cost.
If you wish to purchase a domain name (e.g. www.yourbusinessname.com) from the registrar of your choice and use it for your web site, there is an additional charge, as noted above,
because this requires a different configuration for the hosting and email account.

Applicable taxes are extra. Hosting for this package is for a term of one year. While the price may change slightly, so far, it looks like next

"Build it and they will come" does not apply to the Internet. Therefore, unless you have subscribed to the SEO option above, it will be your
responsibility to promote your own web site and attract visitors. If you subscribe to SEO and SES, every effort will be made to obtain the best
possible positioning and ranking, but due to the vast number of variations found on the Internet and its constantly changing nature, top
ranking and positioning cannot be guaranteed.
