What We Do
Testing
After everything displays correctly in all the major browsers, we still have to do testing to see if the features work: like a contact form correctly sending the right data to the right place, comment forms, photo gallery, and other website plug-ins that must work before they go live. Sometimes things don’t work and we have to spend time fixing them.
Server & Domain Name Set-up
The domain name is the address your website can be found. The server is the place your website’s files are located. To set these up, it involves logging into the service providers site (after the client has purchased these products) and changing codes and creating user-names and passwords so that the domain name and server work together.
Uploading the Site using FTP
FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. This is when we transfer the final website to the client’s live server so that the website can display for the world to see. This may take a few hours depending on the amount of files and size of the files. Also, upload times are usually slower than download times and FTP can put a strain on our systems when active.
