Can a Web Site Be Built in a Day?
Absolutely. With the right skills and the right people on-hand, a Website can be built in one working day. In our experience, we've found that while a Website can take months to put together, much of the time is spent on two things: waiting for clients to make decisions, and assigning work to various other professionals. If you have one of our agents there for the day, that time is spent almost entirely on simply doing the work. When you sign up for the service, you'll be laying the groundwork for much of what we'll need to get the job done. And with on-site access to your opinion and authorization, we can move the project forward very quickly.

How Big a Site Can I Build?
There are limits to what can be done in a day. The target of this service is a small businesses wanting a site to promote their company online. The site can include anything from a basic "brochure"-style site with five pages, to a product catalogue with 30 pages. The key is to understand what can be done in the span of a working day: smaller sites allow us to put more work into the beginning stages of planning the best approach, while larger sites means we need to move quickly with an initial idea.

What If You Can't Finish in a Day?
The first thing we do when setting out on a day is to size the project, and then execute the work that needs to be done to finish it, with that one working day in mind. However, when a job isn't finished by the end of the work day, we'll commit to having it completed within five business days.

What Kind of Features Can I Get?
This service is primarily for marketing sites; sites that promote your company. The end result will be a site that is well-designed and reflective of your company's brand. Depending on your requirements, the site can have special functionality including database-driven content, customer acquisition forms (like sign-ups for newsletters or special offers) and even some content management tools so you can update parts of it yourself. The one area of functionality that we can't do is Flash (think highly interactive animated sequences), as this is too time-consuming, and offers too little return on investment.

What's Included?
WIAD is intended to be a complete solution: we can write the content, design the site's look and feel, and put the two together into a complete Website. The final result is a set of files that you will own and be able to place on any Web host that you wish. Some clients have existing Web hosting providers, and we're happy to work with them. For those who don't, we also offer hosting.

You offer free hosting?
We sure do. We find that many of our clients scramble at the last minute to get hosting for their new sites. The cost is so low, however, that we find it more advantageous (read: easier on you and us) to provide the hosting service for free. The only thing we ask is to place a small badge in your site's footer to take credit for the work.

What if I Want a Big Site?
When you sign up for the service, we may determine that your requirements are more than can be done in a day. In that case, we will recommend you pursue a more traditional approach with our parent company, Innoveghtive.
