Step One:  In a Nutshell
To provide an accurate estimate for your site we need to discuss:
1.  The highpoints you would like to cover with your site. This will help determine the  content, and the number of different titled pages that will be on your site. Another consideration is the amount of photographs required for each page, more than ten on a page can really slow download time.
2.  Your color preferences, any theme ideas, and a general layout. You can get some pretty good ideas of what you might like to include on your website by Viewing Websites I have created.
3. You must have a home page account that provides 5 Megabytes of space for your website. Your  Internet Service Provider (ISP) must support Microsoft Front Page and Uploading data via FTP. You will need to contact your ISP for their FTP Upload Protocol, which is your Host name/Address, your User ID, your Password and what your URL (website address) will be. This information will allow me to upload your site. A simple phone call from you to your ISP will quickly gather all the information we need.
4.  If you wish to have a domain name and/or need a host for your site www.godaddy.com will be able to assist you.
5. At this time I will provide an estimated cost to you. Pretty painless so far, eh?

Step Two:  Your Job
1. You will provide all written text including any URL addresses to be used as links within your text. All graphics, photographs, or other scanned images can be sent to: rumford@wi.rr.com in an electronic format, either as a jpeg or gif. Text may be sent either in Microsoft Word or with email. If you feel you are unable to scan photos clearly or do not have a scanner available scanning can be done by Rumford Web Design on a per/hour basis.
2. At this time we will provide a final cost to you and if you agree we require payment in full.

Step Three:  Creating your Design and getting the OK from you.
1. Rumford Web Design will create your home page (first page of website) for your review and load it to our temporary site. With your approval, Rumford Web Design will finish the rest of the pages of your site in a similiar manner.
2. Rumford Web Design will preview all your pages in Netscape and Internet Explorer, which will minimize user viewing problems.

Step Four:  You like it, so now what is next? 
1. You review your site and if required final changes will be made.
2. Rumford Web Design will load your files to your web browser and if you wish send you a disk with your files.
3. We submit your site to Open Directory which partners with search engines like AOL Search, Google, Netscape Search, Yahoo Search, as well as hundreds of other sites so people will find your site.
