Website Development and Hosting

Sanns, LLC offers quality website development and hosting to its clients.  Websites are customized to meet the needs and requirements of each customer.

Why have a website?  Like any other business tool, it must have a function and a purpose.  A website should be an integral part of your company's marketing plan.  In general, most websites do one or more of the following:

• Drive sales and revenue growth
• Allow customers to place orders for your products
• Disseminate information about your company and your offerings
• Lower marketing costs
• Expand your geographic base to include the entire planet
• Collect information about your customers
• Be a "target" for on-line and off-line advertising
• Be seen as a company keeping up with the times

Many customers in this 21st century do not consider a company to be a legitimate business if they do not have a ".com" domain website.

What is involved in developing a website?  Before embarking on developing a website, Sanns prefers to have a discussion with its clients to understand their business, goals and marketing plan.  Following  that meeting, Sanns will develop a proposal for a website that incorporates the company's goals and plans.  Once the client approves the plan, a domain name needs to be chosen and secured (many ".com" names are already reserved).

What does "website hosting" mean?  Every website on the internet needs to be "hosted" or housed on a server that is attached to the internet.  These servers must be highly reliable, with backups, as your website needs to be available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.  Sanns, LLC uses a highly reliable service to host websites developed by Sanns.

Why does Sanns require that they host the sites they develop?  Not all website hosts offer the features (i.e. SSI, ASP, PHP, etc.) that are required to operate a site developed by Sanns.  To ensure that our customer's sites fully work, we require that we host the sites.  It also allows Sanns to properly update all the sites as needed, or as contracted for.

What does hosting include?  Hosting with Sanns includes an agreed upon level of storage space, monthly throughput (how many requests are made on your pages) and email accounts accessible from both the web and any POP3 client (i.e. Outlook Express, Netscape Messenger, Eudora)

Does Sanns focus on a specific industry or niche?  Sanns does not focus on a specific niche.  However, CommuniPages, a division of Sanns, LLC, does focus on residential community (condominium, townhouse, cooperative, apartment) and property management websites.
