Global
Design Services creates quality, custom designed web sites
that are sure to please even the toughest critic. When developing
your website, we go through a very detailed web
design process to ensure that you receive a website that
is beyond your expectations.
We
incorporate all the latest technologies into each site. Whether
it is flash animation, database integration or high-level
usability, Global Design Services produces superior results.
GDS
specializes in two classes of website, the brochure
website and the e-Commerce
website.
Brochure
Websites
In
a brochure website, customers are introduced to your company
and your products and/or services, though they are not able
to actually order these products and/or services from the
website.
A
sample brochure website would contain the following sections:
- About Us - this section offers information about your
company's history, mission, operating philosophy, etc.
- Products/Services - this section offers an overview
of the products and/or services you offer.
- Rate Overview - this section lists the prices you charge
for your products and/or services.
- Contact Us - this section tells your customers how to
contact you for more information about your products/service
or to place an order!
Search
Engine Optimization - In addition, you can rest
assured that your website will be created with the most
current search engine optimization techniques available.
After all, what is the point of having a dazzling website
if no one can find it!
Web
Builder - Our brochure websites come equipped with
an integrated web builder to help you maintain your website.
This builder creates genuine HTML code, so it can be used
on ANY web server. In fact, once the page is generated,
the code is exactly the same as a webpage created with hand-coded
HTML.
Our
basic brochure design service starts at $175. For this rate,
you will receive a custom designed website consisting of
a maximum of 20 pages. You are, of course, able to add additional
pages for a small fee. To see a running website that fits
into this category, please visit our client's website at
http://www.anewsurface.com.
When
we design your website, please know that you own 100% of
the design and code. You are welcome to do with your website
as you see fit! We would love to host your website, but
if you would prefer to host it elsewhere, that is certainly
acceptable.

e-Commerce
Websites
In
an e-Commerce website, customers are not only introduced to
your products and/or services, but also they are able to order
these services from your website. An
e-Commerce website typically contains all of the sections
found in a brochure website. In addition, an e-Commerce website
contains the following:
- Store Information - this section gives an overview of
your company's policies, such as shipping fees and methods,
return policies, etc.
- Product Listings - this section will display your products
and allow the customer to place add the item to their
virtual "shopping basket".
- Customer Account Information - this section allows customers
to log in to their account, view past orders and view
the status of their current order.
The Shopping Cart - Our e-Commerce website
incorporate the Oscommerce shopping cart into the website
to allow your customers to order your products and services
from your website. After carefully reviewing the functionality
of many shopping carts, we opted to use Oscommerce because
we feel it offers the greatest flexibility to our clients.
With the Oscommerce system, you can:
- Add, edit and delete products with no knowledge of HTML
or web design. Changes are made to your product listing
via an easy to use online form.
- Offer your customer's gift certificates and coupons.
Each certificate and/or coupon is easily created via the
shopping cart's admin center. When a customer purchases
an item and enters the code of the certificate or coupon,
the savings are automatically deducted.
- Accept both PayPal and Credit Card payments.
- Manage link exchanges with other websites.
- and Much More!
Our
basic e-Commerce websites start at $275. For this rate, you
will receive a custom designed website that is fully integrated
with the Oscommerce shopping cart with all of the features
listed above. You can, of course, add additional features
for a small fee. To see a running website that fits into this
category, please visit our client's website at http://www.giftsmadepersonal.com.
