Web Design FAQs

How much does a website cost?
Every website is different and many factors determine the overall cost. We are currently creating a DIY request form but until then please email or give us a call for a free quote.
How long will it take to finish my website?
The biggest factor is how long it takes you to provide us with the content you want on the site. We do all the designing and coding of course but you must provide the copy (text) or any specific images you may want. ATIS can find and use royalty free images from the web or design custom images for your website but there may be another charge for custom designed content.
How does the process work?
Well we try to make it as painless as possible for you. We will inquire about your business and any ideas you may have, research your competitors, and tailor your design specific to your business. Every website we design is unique and it's design will reflect your business. We typically will design a couple of "mockups" using different designs and let you choose the one you like the best. From there we like to ask your input about it and any changes you would like. This will go on throughout the process until the finished design is exactly the way you want it. As professional designers, we can create the entire website without any input from you if you have no idea what you want or decide to leave it up to us, and we are confident you will like the outcome.

    SEO FAQs

    Does Search Engine Optimization guarantee results?
    There are many misconceptions about SEO and this is one of the big ones. SEO does not and never will guarantee results, even if you shell out the big bucks for a major dedicated SEO firm. You have to keep in mind there are literally billions of website's today and many will be the same area of business as yours, and many of those have had a website up for several years. There are so many factors that determine your place in rank on a search engine that it would take me a full day to explain them all so we will cover some common ones.
    SEO takes time so you should not expect to see results right away, it can takes weeks or months to see results. You should also know there are companies out there that spend $1000's every month to keep up with SEO and get good results. SEO does not stop with basic website optimization and it is an on going process. Long term SEO is best handled by a dedicated SEO firm as it is a full time job and requires many hours or work but it is not cheap.
    What about those companies that guarantee results for $500?
    Unless they are going to do a whole lot of work for free this is not true. This amount simply doesn’t pay for all the necessary things that need to be done in a quality and successful SEO campaign. If you’re going to get SEO work done, please don’t fall for these false claims and quick traffic schemes. Look into finding the right SEO company for your needs and your budget.
    Well it seems like your SEO services are a waste of money then!
    Not true at all. ATIS does not claim to be an SEO firm and we certainly are not. We do not handle large SEO campaigns like a dedicated company does. What we do is prepare your website for those campaigns and perform the first few steps to get you ranked high on the search engines. We do however offer PPC or "Pay Per Click" campaigns which help drive targeted traffic to your website by means of Google Ads and they can be quite effective.
    We basically do the hard work of researching the keywords, apply techniques to your design to ensure it will perform well, and these things do actually improve your search engine rank, especially locally. Our website for example does not advertise or use SEO services at all and locally we dominate the search engine results. We are #1 on Google for many keywords and are on the top ten results for all of our specific keywords, so yes our SEO services do make a difference.
