I’m thinking of starting a web site design businesss. How much should I charge clients (and be competitive)? Thanks for your help.

according to the profit which your website will bring to your clients,but also you should compare the market for you to get best decision.

The company that I am looking at is a data center design and mission-critical power company.

There are many of them out in the world. What are you specifically looking to do?

If it is just the design of a very basic site then I recommend doing a google local directory search and look for someone with a very high rating. If you are building something more complex, or don’t really know what you want… Well then I would start with identifying your needs. What is the goal of the website? How much time and money can you devote to it, both during the development and in the long term updating of it. Elance.com is a great place to look for designers, you get to see many bids from a ton of great talent, look at their portfolios and ratings and then choose the one that works for you.

Hi, I’m learning web design and to learn it I’m creating a web site that I will hopefully publish. I have no ideas for a name though so I’m looking for suggestions. All suggestions are welcome thanks for all help.

If you’re website is somewhat formal, I;d suggest something like "Webmaster: Web Expertise" or something like that.
It it’s a friendly, informal-ish site, then I’d recommend something awesome like "Web Bean." No one can resist a site who’s emblem is a sizzling coffee bean.

Hello, I am a Mac user and I am starting a web site. What are the appropriate tools to create, design and develop websites on a Mac?

If you are running Mac OS 10.5 Leopard, it comes preinstalled with iLife ‘08, which includes iWeb, a simple to use, decent web designing tool. If you don’t have OS 10.5, try searching for iWeb in Spotlight or Finder. something should show up unless you don’t have iLife on your Mac. Also, you could use Dreamweaver CS3 from Adobe for Mac for serious web developing.

I can build a simple one-page web page, but I want to learn how to build and design an actual web site, with all the bells and whistles. Unfortunately, no classes exist in my area. I have intermediate computer skills, but no programming experience. Any recommendations? My budget is about $200.

Dreamweaver http://www.adobe.com/products/dreamweaver/
is by far the best program to build websites but it is way over your budget however you could use torrent or something like Limewire or Frostwire to get it. E mail me for more info.

Is there a site that teaches you the business side of web design. I know that web designers can own the sites they design for companies but what does that exactly entitle them to do or have? What are the other legal aspects of designing a site?

Your question is a little ambiguous…

- Web developers have copyright on their work, but give it away when the website is "sold" to the client. That does not mean they cannot re-use PARTS of the CODE. However, they cannot use the "images" or the layouts they have created: these have been "sold". The legality of the copyright? Depends on the country, and the legislation is very vague, so, there is no such a site (as far as I know)…

- The "business" side of a website is a totally different matter: we are talking about "marketing".
Most people believe that a website is the "universal panacea" that will make them famous, or rich, or promote their "business".
This is a question of Marketing, for which there are schools everywhere, giving you an "MBA" (Master in Business and Administration), or something similar.
A website is NOT your marketing policy. The website is PART of your marketing policy!!! BIG difference!
It is very sad to see so many websites that, although well designed, have so little understanding of marketing (I would guess moree than 90%!!!), and that their owner is wondering WHY the website is not successful…
I know why!

Hello, my question is I recentely started working for a company that sells web sites for small business’s. My job is basically to find a prospective client and set up an appointment with our product specialist if they decide to purchase the site I would then get a commision from the sale. My problem is the advertising and marketing side of it. I have put out some ads on craigslist, local papers and such, but I am not getting the responses I am looking for. My goal is to bring the business’s that need or are looking for a website to me. I am really not good at cold calling, nor do I like disturbing owners from their job especially if they are not interested. So I am looking for new ideas to advertise. Any and all suggestions no matter how big or small are greatly appreciated.

The best way to advertise your online business i.e. selling websites is through Google Adwords. As you are aware that millions of people search for products and services on google, so its a best place to advertise and find your targeted prospects , then you can follow-up with them later.
Its very easy to set-up your Adwords account and its initial set-up cost is just $5. You are charged only if someone clicks on your ads.
After that you can select your keywords on which your ads will be shown. These keywords helps you to target the interested clients/people who are already searching for the service that you are providing. A good example of the keyword can be "websites for sales", now on this keyword you can display your classified ad. It really works & I’ve sold lot many info products using this technique, without any cold calls or direct interactions.
The only thing you need to take care is setting this all up properly.

Hope this will help you.
