Professionally Designed Home Page

You will receive a sharp-looking, professionally designed home page, customized to contain vital information about your business.
Many Internet services use commonly available ‘canned/packaged’ design templates to create new web sites. Our design templates are unique and were created exclusively for Omena Web Services. This allows us to provide small business owners like you with high-quality, original web sites.
Each of our web site templates is available in multiple color combinations.

Business Domain Name

We will secure your domain name for you. You will get your own web address, and not just a page on someone else’s web site.
You can select your domain name during the ordering process.

Web Space Rental

Your new web site will require web space on an Internet server. We will take care of securing the space you need, and include an entire year’s rental as part of your purchase price.

Email Addresses

Search Engine Submissions

We will submit your new web site to the Google search engine, along with other non-fee based search engines like AllTheWeb, EntireWeb, and MixCat. These submissions are critical because most potential customers will find your website through the use of search engines. We will also design your new web site to be Search Engine Friendly. This too is critical, because it will give your site greater visibility to potential customers.

The integrity of any professional service is defined by the people who make it happen. Our staff is diverse and talented, capable of turning the internet into a useful tool for almost any business. This new medium can be an ambiguous glob of cryptic acronyms and confusing terminology. We’ll explain and teach. We’re not interested in “cool”.

We don’t want to create “art”. We just want to put the internet to work for our clients. We design. We program. We re-design. We also adapt. No single Web Media employee ever says “That’s not my problem.” Each of us will promptly assist you. If we don’t know something, we learn it; if there’s a gap, we fill it. If, after every stone has been turned, we can’t help you, we’ll find someone who can. However, this circumstance has yet to present itself.

We’ve worked under just about all conditions, in most cases providing all aspects of service. We pride ourselves on the strength of our relationships – many of our clients have been with us since our founding.

All businesses benefit from having a Website even those that have a budget to keep to, as it’s the most common media now used to look for products and services. In this day of modern technology, more and more people are turning to the Internet rather than the Yellow pages or Thompson local directory, after all, you just found this site on the Internet, but it’s not listed in any contemporary telephone directory.

Now we could tell you about all the complicated things that go into building a Website, but that would just be wasting your time and in business time is money. So we have kept this site small, basic, and to the point, as our work speaks for its self as you can see if you visit the portfolio page.

A lot of small businesses, clubs, and associations looking for a company to build them a Website are put off by the cost. The average cost of putting up even a small site (2-3 pages) by a big web design company will normally cost around £500 to £1000.00 or even more, but we can make you a unique site for a fraction of the cost that bigger company’s charge. Budget Website services are proud of the fact that we are the lowest cost commercial website construction company in the UK.

Content.
You provide the content, be it text, drawings, photos whatever, you can e-mail the content from the comfort of your own office or home which means you don’t have to attend any meetings or take time out of your busy workday. If you have an idea of how you would like your Website to look or the colors you would like used you can give us that too, unlike a lot of companies that only give you a limited choice of a few templates, we will build the site the way you want it. That way it keeps your Website unique to your company.

What it will cost.

At this stage on other similar websites, many other companies shy away by saying “Call us for a quote”, but we are proud of the fact that we offer a first-rate service that gives you good value for your money.
Now, remember that we said it will cost you a fraction of what the larger company’s charge, well that’s exactly what we meant.

Which includes; your own domain name, (Website address) i.e..www.yourbuisnessname.co.uk or .com* which is valid for 2 years (. com* 1 year) & is extendable after that. Your home page (the first main page on your site) + up to four other pages at the time of setting up.
If your site does not need updating then you have nothing to pay, it’s as simple as that. Your links page is kept updated for free whenever you have a new link to add!

• Domain name www.yourbuisnessname.co.uk.
• Up to 5 pages in the basic package.
