6 Steps to Your Own Online Business

Of course, we start with a detailed interview process to become familiar with your business and marketing goals. Much brainstorming takes place here until we get to a stage where we break ground on your site. While we do all the website building, you can get an idea of what is involved in the process of setting up your online store below:

1. Select your domain name.

Selecting an effective domain name is the first step to a successful online presence. Got2Web can handle the registration process for you from start to finish, helping you choose a name to fit your business needs and then processing and transmitting the request. You can find out more about our domain name registration process here.

2. Design and build the website.

Our website designers will first come up with a design which is presented to you as a mockup in digital form, for your approval. Once the website design is approved by you, our team will build the pages as required.
At Got2Web Internet Services, we believe in maintaining open communication between us and the client every step of the way. Because of this, you will have access to a test area where work-in-progress can be viewed online, any time day or night. This keeps you in the loop and any required revisions can be spotted and corrected early.

3. Choose a web hosting plan.

The files that make up your website need to live somewhere and that requires the use of a server. Servers are computers that, not only house the website's files, give them access to the internet. In addition, servers provide important additional functionality, like product presentation, data and order processing, billing, inventory control and much more. And, they do all this in a highly secure and safe manner.

There are several hosting plans provided by Got2Web Internet Services, depending on your individual requirements. More information on our website hosting plans is available here.

4. Add e-commerce capability.

This is where your website becomes a working store. As mentioned earlier, the e-commerce functionality we provide to your online business:

• Gives you the ability to add products to your website easily ... without needing any website design experience
• Allows visitors to your website to shop securely and easily
• Provides you with a control panel to keep track of sales, shipping and tax charges, online merchant accounts and much more.
• Lets you collect customer information for shipping and future marketing efforts

The best part is that by adding e-commerce capability to your website you can keep your business doors open twenty-four hours a day, every day of the year...accessible anywhere in the world!

5. Merchant accounts

As a business owner, you're already aware of the need for a merchant account to be able to accept credit cards for payment. However, you may not be aware that online merchant accounts are different from those operating through 'brick-and-mortar' businesses. Technological, security and logistical requirements are specialized and require different handling. Got2Web Internet Services can help you in this area. You can find out more about our merchant account services here.

6. Add additional advanced functionality as your business requires.

As your online business grows, you will undoubtedly find the need of additional advanced functionality, for instance, for marketing purposes. We can help you expand your business as cost-effectively as possible. Find out more about other advanced website features here.
