Getting your website published to the Web

Congratulations on your decision to create a web presence! To be certain that the experience remains a positive and exciting one, listed are the steps to getting your site published to the web. In order, the following are essential items that all could bear a cost:

Domain: Do you have a domain name registered yet? This will normally cost a nominal amount, but also remember that this is not a one-time process, but an annual occurance. You may register you own domain with a domain name registry service. If you should choose to use our web hosting services, DWAS Web Hosting, the domain name registration is included in the cost of package.

Web Site Design: After an initial consultation with you, we will decide on an initial design and quote based on our consultation. We will then provide you with a draft of the web site within a specified time period. When the site is completed we will provide to you a disk with the finished version of the site.

Web Hosting: Arrange for your site to be hosted. This is an additional fee that is required to get your site up and running. You may choose your own web hosting company to upload your files to the web. Renting space on a server so that it can serve your web site to the World Wide Web, is called 'hosting'. Companies that provide this service are often called 'host' or hosting companies. After you've registered your domain, all you need to do is contact a hosting company and tell them your domain name. They will be able to guide you through the process and you should be live on the web in no time - typically within a week or less. After you have your domain name registered and your hosting service in place, the last step is to upload the website onto the server. You can transfer your web site to your host's server using an FTP program. An FTP program is a type of software that is used to move files from one computer to another over the Internet. FTP is the acronym for: File Transfer Protocol; this just means that this is a 'way' of moving files.
If you should choose to use our web hosting services, DWAS Web Hosting, we will upload the site for you or you can use the convenient control panel provided with your hosting account to access your site to upload files or edit your web pages.

Ongoing web management: Consider whether you are going to do this yourself or whether you will need someone to be your webmaster for a monthly fee. Many site owners want to manage their own site, only to find that it is not as simple as it sounds. In most cases you would need at least a basic understanding and knowledge of html or a wysiwyg editor such as "Dreamweaver" or "Frontpage". Depending on the design of your site, you may even need more. DWAS provides web site management at affordable rates.
