Regardless of size, every business, organization, agency
or group
should have a presence on the world wide web. It equals the playing
field. No matter who you are or where you are, you can join in.
But up until now, getting and maintaining a web presence has been an expensive,
complicated and time consuming puzzle that can quickly drain budgets
and people. Staking your claim on the Internet does not have
to be a complicated puzzle! The Web Kings have
simplified the entire process. In just a few easy steps, you can join the rest
of the world on the web for much less expense, effort and staff than you ever
imagined.

The Web Kings will help you solve the the puzzle
of taking your place on the world wide web in four simple steps.
 |
You need a domain name. That's "geek speak"
for your "address" in the electronic world. You see
and hear these everywhere... like
amazon.com.
Step one is to decide on your domain name and then check
to see if it is available. And if it is available,
grab it... because they are going fast! You should do
this step fairly quickly... but not without considering
factors that make for a good domain name. |
 |
Design your web site. Once you have your
domain name, you need to decide what it is you that you want
to say. This will take a little thought... a building
plan if you will. There are all sorts of different
tools, products and services that take care of the mechanics
of actually building a web site but the most important
factor are your plans... the content. What do you want
to say and who are you saying to? Think in outline
form and just use a word processor or paper and pencil for
starters but get your main points down with a little detail
on each of those points.
|
 |
Host your web site. If your domain name is
your "address" and your web site design is your "building
plan" then web hosting is your "lot" on the world wide web.
This is where your web pages will actually be stored so they
can be viewed by anyone from anywhere when they are directed
to your domain name, This sounds complicated and
expensive, but it doesn't have to be. There are a
number of good alternatives to take care of this part of the
puzzle. |
 |
Set up your email. While your domain name is
the "address" of your "building" on the web, email focuses
on the individual offices inside your "electronic building".
You will probably want to have several different email
addresses to manage your on line correspondence. For
example, we use
info@thewebkings.com to handle general information about
our products and services and
support@thewebkings.com to deal with helping our
existing customers. The portion of the email address
after the @ sign is your domain name. The portion to
the left of the @ sign is the individual email account
within that domain. |
