| + | |||
| + | There are a variety of website services that are provided by Oceantara in order to best serve your business. Whether you want to start from the ground up or simply need regular maintenance and updating, Oceantara has affordable options for websites. | ||

| + | *All the features and services of the Create Your New Website package | ||
| + | *A customized design template that perfectly demonstrates your company’s image and branding. | ||
| + | *Integration of previous site designs, if applicable. | ||
| + | *Additional site features and tools | ||

| + | '''<ins>3) Custom Web Design</ins>''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Creating a custom website is the next step up with more customization possibilities.

Some details of the package include: | ||

| + | '''<ins>4) E-Commerce Website</ins>''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Selling online can be a way to reach a whole new market that brick and mortar stores just can't reach. Having an online store can help increase search engine optimization as well as improve credibility by selling both online and offline. Also, customers that like to research in low pressure environments can use your online store to learn about your product in a way that suits them. We can set up the site and train you on how to update it, or one of our people can manage your eCommerce site. Either way, getting one started can have a high ROI and help grow your small business. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''<ins>5) Website Maintenance</ins>''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | As with any other aspect of running a business, your website needs to stay modern and up to date. Marketing plans, advertising budgets, and finances are constantly shifting and require attention. We can manage your website to keep it up to date with latest specials, blogs and articles, and anything else unique to your small business. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''<ins>6) Website Hosting</ins>''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | There may be many seemingly low-cost hosting solutions out there like godaddy.com, but you also end up paying for it in time and headaches. With website hosting at oceantara ( www.FilmSchoolDatabase.com ), you will get a complete package with simple updates that are just an email away. You will get personal expertise with stronger performance. | ||
| + | <br> | ||

| + | === <ins>Online Marketing</ins> === | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''<ins>1) Online Advertising</ins>''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Online advertising is a great way for businesses to maximize ROI with an advertising budget. Online advertising like google AdWords is highly customizable, conveniently track-able, and tailored to fit your budget. Adwords is based on keywords so advertisements are targeted to searchers using keywords relevant to your business. It is hard to find such targeted advertising elsewhere. | ||
| + | |||
| + | '''<ins>2) Search Engine Optimization</ins>''' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Search Engine Optimization is similar to adwords except the search results are organic. Google and other search engines determine organic search results based on how well a site is optimized, links to your site, and other factors. SEO is the process of marketing a website online so that it shows higher in organic search results on google. | ||
| + | <br> | ||
| + | <br> | ||
| + | === <ins>Custom Web Software Development</ins> === | ||
| + | |||
| + | Sometimes as a entrepreneur, you have great ideas but lack the technical knowledge to implement them. Oceantara provides custom web software development to help small businesses come to life. We will help determine if your idea is feasible, and all the features that would go into the software. Next we'll build a design that you approve, and then begin designing the software. | ||
| + | <br> | ||
| + | === <ins>Mobile App Development</ins> === | ||
| + | |||
| + | Just like the custom web software development, the mobile app development service is for people interested in developing a mobile app on iPhone, Android, or Blackberry devices. More and more people are buying smartphones and using applications to research and navigate the world around them. Whether you are a small business that needs an app or a start-up looking to create something completely unique, we can work with you to make it happne. | ||
