Noobie Quick-Start Web Sites
Are you still wondering if your business needs a web site? Rest assured that it does! You can have your very own web site or blog up and running in DAYS with Noobie Quick-Start Sites. Your site will be built on a flexible platform already used for millions of beautiful, and powerful, web sites: WordPress.
What is WordPress?
WordPress is the largest, self-hosted web publishing platform tool in the world that is used on hundreds of thousands of sites and seen by tens of millions of people every day. It is an open source project that was created by and for the community of people who use it. And, hundreds of people all over the world continually contribute to its development.
Why Host a WordPress Site Yourself?
Chances are you've heard of WordPress or know of people who have set up WordPress sites. It's important to know that WordPress offers a "service" that allows just about any noobie to set up a blog or site in seconds, but the service results in a site with limited flexibility. Noobie Quick-Start Sites use the full, self-hosted versions of WordPress software giving you unlimited storage options, attractive design themes and reliable "plug-in" functionalities.
A Web Site for Sore Eyes
Whatever excuses you've been using for not establishing a presence on the web, Noobie has the answer.
- Do What You Do Best
Whether you provide expert services or run a business expertly, keep doing what you do best, and let Noobie do the rest. Chances are if you try to create your own web site, it will show-or it will never get done. - Go Where People Will Find You
For many of your potential customers or clients, web searching has completely replaced the phone book. That doesn't necessarily mean they're searching the "Yellow Pages" web site; they are using powerful search engines like Google.com, Bing.com and Ask.com to find information about local, national and global businesses. - Outpace the Competition
As recently as April 2009, estimates show that only about 38 percent of small businesses use an online channel for communicating with customers. Creating an attractive, informative and easy-to-find web site is still a great way to get a leg up on the competition. - Make the Most of a Struggling Economy
If business is a little slower than usual, then this is the perfect time to apply some energy to creating or updating your small business web site. Take a long-term approach to success and be ready for new business when the economy picks up.
Three Steps to an Online Presence
So, how can you get a professional-looking, reliable web site up and running before the Cubs win another pennant? Partner with Noobie and all you will need to do is:
1. Share ideas for your web site domain name.
2. Select from a wide range of themes.
3. Provide copy and images for your home page and static sub-pages.
Help Every Step of the Way
Your partnership with Noobie begins with a design consultation to help you determine how many web pages you need, organize the optimal navigation menu and help you select and purchase an available and memorable domain name. Plus, Noobie will install Google Analytics so you'll know how hard your site is working for you, week by week, when you receive automatically generated email reports and analytics.
Custom Touches for a Site That's Uniquely Yours
Hundreds of thousands of people already have created WordPress designs and plug-ins, and because these are all freely shared as part of the WordPress community, Noobie can help you find the ones you need and adapt them to your needs. So, while large corporations may spend tens of thousands of dollars on the look, feel and function of their sites, you can get a custom-looking site that meets all your business and/or blogging needs for under $1,000.
- Theme Selection and Customization
Noobie will provide samples of themes that should best meet your needs, or you can choose from any existing WordPress themes. If you have a custom look in mind, Noobie can do that, too. Just ask about pricing. - Add-ons, Plug-ins and Apps
In WordPress web sites, function follows form. With your preferred design in place and a consistent site theme, Noobie can also help you add plug-ins, add-ons, Google Apps and other functionality so your site works harder. - Customer Database Creation
One great function to consider is a signup form so that visitors can add themselves to your email marketing database. Expand the reach of your site and its content by "pushing" it out in daily, weekly or monthly emails to interested customers and clients. An email database signup form on your WordPress site by Noobie is available by request for a small additional fee.
