Web Design

In constructing your website, appearance is equally important as content. On this page, notice the two-column design bordered with a dark perimeter; this makes your page 'pop out' to the viewer.

Graphics are kept to a minimum to ensure that your index page loads quickly; many have little patience with slow-loading pages.

Font choice is important; you can highlight important content and you can change its appearance.

Based upon normal size and complexity, Manitoulin Island Web Design charges a standard fee ($500) for the web design and quarterly maintenance for 12 months. This allows for minor text changes that reflect the seasons. For more frequent changes, a scaled fee will apply.

And So ......


A unique domain name both identifies your business and provides an e-mail address that further promotes your business. For example, if the domain name is meritcrafts.com, you should utilize an appropriate address such as info@meritcrafts.com

A web presence is vital for business today. With a "counter" attached to your page, you can assess the number of "hits" that your site attracts.

Web pages dramatically change the business flow of information!

Getting started is often difficult for those with limited web skills. Also, many will not know how to edit or refresh information that is dated. We help at a minimal cost.

A well-designed web presence enhances your professional image and promotes productivity.

Your web presence enables you to create:
  • A contemporary corporate image that promotes broad consumer awareness.
  • Quick, responsive customer service.
  • Market expansion and exposure.
  • Information distribution locally and world-wide.
Business Considerations:
  • Get on the INTERNET
  • Register with search engines
  • Use press releases/announcements
  • Post to targeted groups
  • Invitations to promotions via e-mail
  • Links to complimentary web sites
And remember - monthly updates and promotion improve a web site's effectiveness, making it more profitable.
