During the design &
build phase, SMC will host the customer’s development
web site on its own servers. This will allow the
customer access to their web site during the development
phase so that they can review the content and follow the
site’s progress. The customer’s development web site
will also be available for maintenance update reviews on
an ongoing basis. |
Once the site has been designed and is ready to be published to
the web, SMC will help the customer select a web hosting
company. In selecting a web hosting company, consideration must
be given to such items as:
| |
• Do they offer fast
connections? |
| |
• Do they offer dedicated server or shared hosting? |
| |
• Do they have a back-up system in place? |
| |
• Do they require a long-term contract? |
| |
• Do they charge set up fees? |
| |
• Do they provide an online Web Site Manager? |
| |
• Do they provide an online support manual? |
| |
• Do they provide
dynamic environments using ASP/ASP.NET,
Perl and PHP? |
| |
• Do they provide a 30
day money back guarantee? |
These are
just a few of the questions that must be addressed in selecting
a web hosting company. Based on SMC's past experience with web
hosting companies, we have found that
CrystalTech
Web Hosting, Inc. has provided good service at an affordable
price. |
