CBA Abacus have been building websites since 1996 and during
that period have designed and built many different styles of web
site all of which have reflected the owners specific requirements,
preferences and operational nuances. Internet technology advances,
and we ensure we keep abreast of all the latest developments.
This allows us to create and build, or rebuild for our clients
interesting web sites incorporating features previously unavailable.
We build modern professional looking sites, which incorporate
fast easy navigation, unique and individual identity, and exude
quality. Above all, a site to which visitors will return. It is
important to us that site pages download fast and that images
are trimmed and optimised correctly. We do this for our clients
or teach them how to do it for themselves.

Website
A web site requires a name, known as a domain name, and
a place to reside referred to as the site host.
We provide domain name registration and full hosting on fast servers
as part of one of the packages we offer. Alternatively a client
may select their own preferred host or set up on their existing
host and transfer to ours later if they wish to update their site
themselves.
With a domain name in place we will establish the
clients own email address which will remain theirs
for as long as they retain their domain name. e.g. enquiries@clientsname.com.
This means that email arriving at this address will automatically
be forwarded to the clients current email account wherever it be.
e.g. client@aol.com
Once the site is built and has sufficient stock
items on it to be of interest we publish for the world to see. At
this point few people will know of the sites existence and fewer
still will stumble across it. The way to get people to your site,
assuming that you are not a "household name", is by having
a good ranking with the search engines. All of
our packages include search engine registration and regular "tweaking"
to improve the ranking.
Updating
A web site is a living thing and requires attention to keep the
search engines returning as well as site visitors. We provide two
types of site; CBA Abacus updateded and client updated. The
sites we maintain we look after everything including regular stock
updates. With client maintained sites we support the server side
of the operation (database etc,) and the client takes responsibility
for updating their stock and information pages. |

| 2. Standard CBA Abacus built and
Maintained Site. |
The site is built with
full consultation and as much input as the client wishes to
make, basic things such as colour schemes, site sections and
navigation will reflect their particular choice. We expect
most sites would include the following sections, areas, topics
or statements: Home page, About Us, Contact details and location,
Venues, Events & Exhibitions, How to Buy, Guarantees and
Delivery, Terms and Conditions, Association memberships, Noteworthy
articles and books. Links etc.
This package can be hosted with us or elsewhere, we should
require access to server if it were to be hosted elsewhere.

In addition to the
contents of the Standard Site, features such as a "zoomable"
