Hiring The Right Team To Build Your Website

Its so important when hiring the right team to build your website that you really begin with a check list of questions that you need answered before you even get to the point and start talking about your vision for your website. 

The questions would be:

• How much experience have you had building websites?
• Can I see the different types of websites that you have built?
• What length of time does it take you to build a website?

WordPress is one of the biggest and easiest platforms to work with and there are thousands of free themes but note with free themes are not updated after a period of time whereas a paid theme is updated regularly.

Once the platform and framework of the site is built, it is more difficult to add new features or alter the overall structure.

Other considerations is to determine the goal of your website.

• What do you hope to achieve with this website?
• Who is your target audience?
• How will you know when you have achieved these objectives?

With building your website you may want to consider to have a mock up of the layout of your website so you can envisage how the end product will look like. This is a great time to make adjustments before you even get started. As you move through the website creation process, you will see the website starting to take shape and have a good idea by now what the site will look like.

Although there will be many things that will change during the creation process – like specific design features, different applications, and your unique content – your core goals will remain constant.

• Local Business SEO using this method to bring more clients through your door.
• Customer service to help retain customers that you have. Its cheaper to maintain a customer you already have rather than attract new ones. Are you running webinars? What is your follow up after its over – we can help with that or personally introduce your new customer to groups.
• We can confirm appointments, book leads in your diary for you to speak with.
• Day to day admin tasks, data entry or compliment the skills you don’t have in your office without the expense of hiring new staff.
• e-Commerce teams such as Amazon, Shopify and e-bay all trained to do the tasks you would normally need to do yourself.
• Branding through beautiful websites, graphics, logo’s, book covers etc. You have exactly 6 seconds for your customer to decide if they want to stay on your site it MUST be easy to navigate, load quickly, well laid out so your customer can find what they are after.

Virtual Assistant Help – Simple Tips To Save You Heartache

Virtual assistant help can be used anywhere in your business and the longer you outsource you will find tasks that you were always going to get around to doing but never did.

In my early days when I first went online some 10 years ago one of the perks I had was my nephew had his own hosting company and he offered me free hosting which was timely as Google adsense was the big thing back then and many people made full time incomes from their websites from having little ads all over them. They were virtually goldmines depending on the niche’ you went into as each site when people clicked on the banners you made a few dollars.

With the free hosting from my nephew I was buying up domains in all different niches and the virtual assistant would be making various websites and then adding the adsense banners.

All was going well it was and I was managing to get a website up with a few good keywords to get it ranked and the sites would each earn a few dollars per day. Some of the sites I had at the time were insurance sites and they would earn up to a few hundred dollars a day…those were the days! A little more of what happened in the days a little later in this article.

Life was good and it was going like a well oiled machine and I remember counting at the time I had over 100 sites but then I got hacked and had a virus I was trying to get rid of went to one site to the other why was this happening to me and I soon found out it was my own fault people make themselves more vulnerable to hackers by not doing the most simplest of things listed below:

• Not updating to the latest version of wordpress
• Not updating the theme and the plug-ins
• Custom theme over a free theme
• Change passwords regularly don’t use “admin” as your UN
• Backup your sites weekly

I also became aware that having a free theme can also have its drawbacks and become a problem down the track as they will get to a stage of not being supported or any further updates and improvements. Having custom themes is definitely a more safe way to go.

UPDATE WORD PRESS REGULARLY 

The message is loud and clear to help deter hackers follow the simple recommendations above, if you have not the time to do this yourself get virtual assistant outsourcing help to do these type of tasks or other tasks or the dull boring things that you hate doing yourself – that is the perfect work that the VA loves to do.

Need a VA – Experts at Website Design Branding

Website design branding can make you or break you. Literally and have to admit that I have had my fair share of website designers that have lead me by the nose and had agreeing to a website that ends up costing 10 times more than was quoted and even up until today the website is gathering dust on a hard drive totally usable and nothing what I originally wanted or intended it for. Partly my fault as I had no idea what I was doing at the time and a web design company that took advantage of the lack of knowledge.

As a customer and consumer myself I know how important it is to be heard especially if you have never had a website designed for you before this is your calling card and it needs to be just right and deliver the message that you want it

What has happened though is that I have grown my virtual assistant company to include a website design team with a web designer who listens to the client and then goes away and conceptualize the website taking your ideas and then making them website come alive! Each step is approved along the way where he will show you 3 designs that you will pick the one that is closest to what you are looking for and he then makes a few changes until he nails it for you.

The designs, banners, logos and graphics are unbelievable and our clients have been featured on our work on CNN, Huffington Post, Freedom Preneuer and other notable New York Tv networks. It makes us proud as a company to be seen on such.

This of course has given my up until now my little unknown web designer a celebrity status and he is known as the “Sexy Blog Artist” and has lead to a bit of fun around the office and has his wife laughing at his new title.

Seriously though due to the quality of the work we do we are getting a lot of attention and many referrals for the type of branding and quality services that we provide. I have now got a branding business partner that has joined me to help her clients carry their business message and we are thrilled to be associated with Rhonda Swan the “Unstoppable Momma” who is a branding specialist.

If you are looking for someone that will listen to what you are saying and will meet your needs and that of your company you need to look no further than Need a VA reach us through our website or email us at info@needava.com
