Standard Features with all our websites

There are certain features you should expect in a well designed web site.
HunTel.net Web Design follows a set of industry standards that help you attain the full benefit of your web presences.

Customized Web Presences

Content  The single most important element of your website is the information you present.  You are the one who understands your mission and purpose and it's important you communicate it clearly.  You will want to develop all the detailed information that you want your visitors to know for all the subsequent pages in your site.  The content that you have written will be incorporated into the design of your web site.  Submit your text either by disk or email.  Custom content development, copy writing are all available as an expanded feature.
Website Description Statement  As you develop this information, be sure to write a brief and descriptive summary statement that tell your story in one or two sentences. This description will be used in the Meta tags for your site and is what potential viewers will see when they find your site using most popular search engines.
Meta Tags   Imbedded in the programming code of your web pages are descriptive statements and keywords that allow many search engines to find your site.
Web Page Titles  All web pages will be titled with page subject and company name.
Company Name or Logo  Your company name, logo and address should appear on each of the web pages in your site.  This helps identifies who you are and reinforces your presence on the web.
URL  Your website address (URL) should appear on your home page.  This provides access to those who may see a printed copy of your web information.
Email address and link  On each page, your email address and email link appear to provide a way to get immediate feedback from your audience.

Interactive Web Navigation

Home Page  Your site must be easy for people to move through.  The home page is often the first impression visitors have of your site (and often of your company.)  This page should clearly indicate the main subject of the site, highlighting what is most important and provide critical information. Your home page serves as an information and menu center for the rest of your web site.
Page Links   Content is often organized into logical categories so that the visitor finds the information they need within one to three clicks.  Generally a standard navigational menu is established and used on each of the web site pages.
Up to ten external links  On all of the basic web design packages offered by HunTel.net, you can have up to ten external links to other websites.  Additional links can be designed into your website as an expanded feature.
Standard Navigation
  Site navigation is conducted through link menus and text links that are easily updated and fixable to expand.  Specialized navigation systems such as drop down menus, site map menus, etc. can be designed into your website as an expanded feature.

Page/site design and layout

Page Size  All pages constructed by HunTel.net Web Design will be designed to be viewed on monitors ranging in size from 14 to 21 inches. We'll strive to build pages that require minimal scrolling to view the page's content. On pages that require vertical scrolling, text columns will be used to improve readability.
Text Columns  It's difficult to read a long text line on a computer monitor. That's why newspaper columns are narrow and paragraphs short.   For readability, text columns will maintain a reasonable width rather than stretching across the width of a large, high resolution monitor.
Load Speed  Web site pages should load fast. Our standard target loading time is no more than six seconds to load using a 56K connection for the main pages such as the home page and product pages.
Visual Theme  Logos, images, colors and fonts make up the graphic layout of your web site. This graphic elements provide site unity and the variations of that theme help distinguish deferent pages with-in a multi-level site.  A standard theme also helps visitors know that they are still at the same site and also helps reduce download time when going from one page on the site to another by reusing graphics images.
Web-Safe Colors  Generally, your web site will be developed with Web-safe colors.  These are the 216 standard colors that most computer monitors can display without distortion.
Graphics  Your company logo or promotion pictures can be integrated into your web design by submitting graphics in digital form (gif, jpg, bmp, tiff, & png formats) or let our graphic designers find appropriate stock graphics.  Custom graphics, image editing, logo design, scanning and digital photography are all available as an expanded feature.
