About LaneSki Web Design:
LaneSki web design by Lane Davey seeks to provide informational/ search engine optimized type websites for small companies and upstarts. This means I hope to create a basic website that will rate high on the search engines so when someone googles your name or service type your website will come up. The goal is to provide an inexpensive web design service to help small businesses (especially here in Hawaii) build an online pressence drawing both local and global attention to your product or service. Basically my plan is to build your main website which should act as a mainframe connecting all your social networking links (myspace, facebook, blogs, linkedin, twitter, youtube) I then hope to act as more of a guide and consultant showing you how to expand on your own with no or very little money. Modern technology provides opportunity like never before for small business to thrive and with just a little bit of computer knowledge and guidance you can go a long way. I will encourage customers to be active online in atleast on of the social networking arenas because this places a major role to bringing traffic to your site. I can build anything from the most basic website to a fully functional store, but I do not build flash sites(the really fancy sites) because they are not search engine savy which means they do not rate high in searches unless you are willing to pay a lot for advertising.

Web Store Design
E-commerce or having an online store has become very simple these days. All you need is to do is setup a business Paypal account and you can accept credit cards through them via your website or even when you are selling your goods at a market. I highly reccomend Paypal, they take a percentage of your sales, but for small companies their is no monthly fee or upfront investments. Building shopping carts are very time consuming so they will be expensive, but there are several shopping cart services that allow you to build your own store very simply which would save you a lot of money and allow you to add new products immediately as they come in. If your host is Godaddy you can order their quick shopping cart. It is about $10 per month for 20 products and then I think it goes up to $30 for 100 products.
Site Updates:
My goal is to get you involved in your site so you don't need many updates. For example if you have lots of news or event s page you could set up a daily blog or twitter page that is linked to your site so all your customer has to do it hit news/events on your menu bar and they open up your very own blog, twitter or youtube that is updated daily by you without me ever having to go back into the site and change the design. If you for example have a monthly schedule you need updated, I would be happy to negoitiate a yearly rate to update/change that schedule every month for you as you send it.
Hosting
All websites need a hosting server. There are a wide range of hosting services, but I use Godaddy because it is one of the most inexpensive and has 24 hour free service which is very good. The first thing I ask all my customers to do is set up a Godaddy account(free), buy a domain name(est.$10 per year) and hosting service($10 per month) listing me "Lane Davey" as the "account executive" so I can upload your website or updates to your site. If you already have a hosting server and or domain name I will need your username and password to accesses your server so I can upload the website.
