Networking
If your business is new to the Internet, there will be much more to getting your presence on-line than simply having a web site. A domain-name (yourbusiness.com) and a web-hosting provider are also necessary to create a professional presence. You might also want e-mail that uses your domain name, for further consistency. And what about how to access all this stuff? Is a dial-up modem enough, or are you itching for the higher speeds that a cable modem, DSL or other broadband connection would provide? And what if you want ALL of your office to have access to the Internet? All these considerations can add up to a big headache unless you know the ropes. Spiffyweb can help you figure out what you need (and what you don't need), and then hold your hand through the process of obtaining these services.
Checklist:
- Do you have a domain name (yourbusinessname.com)?
- Do you have a web-hosting provider?
- Do you want your business to have e-mail that ends with "yourbusinessname.com"?
- Do you have an easy way to access the Internet?
- Do any of your employees need to access the Internet?
