What is a domain name?

A domain name, such as lisabeale.com is simply a way to identify your web site, email, etc. from everyone else's. Just as your mailing address is unique in the world, so is every domain name. If domain names were not unique it would be impossible to accurately deliver anything to its proper location. Computers on the Internet use combinations of numbers to talk to each other called IP Addresses. To make it easier for humans to communicate via the web, domain names were created!

An Internet domain name is "unique" and allows you to have an "identity" on the Internet.

Domain Name registration is included in all of my Packages.   I register the domain name in your name and you are the owner of the name for 1 Year  from the date of registration. After that period, you will be invited to renew the domain name for a period of 1 or more years. You will always have the option to renew the domain name. You are registered as the Administrative Contact and have the final say in any activities regarding your domain name for as long as you are the registered, paid owner. 

You will be able to contact me if you need help when it is time to renew the domain name.

What is web hosting?

Web hosting is the essentially the placement of your website onto the Internet through a server. Once your site is on a server, anyone with Internet access can look at your website - from anywhere in the world, 24 hours a day.

Hosting a website entails storing its constituent files, images, and data on a web server, a computer whose sole purpose is making the site available over the web. Once a site is hosted, it can be viewed from any computer with a web browser and internet connection. A user need only type the site’s web address into a web browser, and the web server will respond by downloading the site onto the user’s computer, where it is displayed by a "web browser" application like Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator.

Web Hosting is included in all of my Packages. I will research to determine the optimal web hosting provider for your site and arrange for 1 Year of site hosting.  After that period, you will be invited to renew the web hosting for a period of 1 or more years.  You will always have the option to renew your web hosting contract.  You are registered as the contact and have the final say in any activities regarding your web hosting for as long as you are the registered, paid owner. 

You will be able to contact me if you need help when it is time to renew the web hosting contract.

What if I want to make changes after my website is up and running?

You will have 7 Days after your site is live to make minor changes.  After that time period, email me on the fly or set up a monthly schedule. I will get the job done regularly or when you have an urgent need. My hourly rate is $50, with a 1 hour minimum fee. Regularly scheduled content updates can be set up on a yearly contract basis, paid monthly.

In the age of information it is important to keep the content of your pages updated.

When communicating your page changes, you can simply send me your text in the body of an email or as a Microsoft Word file attachment. You will also need to include the web page url.
