CMS Websites (Content Management Systems)
From £3,500
Unlike a normal website, which is a collection of "static" pages, a CMS is dynamically driven from a database.

Static Websites were fine in their day, but the needs of modern businesses have changed, and now companies must be able to interact with their websites and update immediately if necessary.

Using a CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM allows you or your staff, who are not experienced web designers, to add, delete or edit pages, through a web-based administration interface.

They can paste their content (articles, service information or news) straight into web pages, click on a submit button, and have these pages immediately display on the web.

A major advantage of a CMS is in reducing the costs: This can result in big savings because instead of using a web designer every time you need to add or update your web pages, you or your staff can add/update the content during normal working hours.

This website is managed and updated using a CMS system.
Discussion Forums Installation
£225 - including all necessary pages
With a forum system built into your website you can create your own community, which can be "open" or "private" depending on your needs.

Your visitors can give you instant feedback on any subject. You can use forums in many ways; as a place where your clients can get help from yourself or other members, as a general meeting place for discussion on any topics you care to include, the possibilities are endless.

N.B.
Forums are only available on accounts that have MySQL included.

The system also allows multiple users at different levels of access - "Administrators" have full access to all levels, "Editors" have editorial control over their own and lower level articles, while "Reporters" can only edit articles they wrote themselves. The last level is "Commentors", if you choose to allow it then visitors can register in order to be able to leave comments on news items.

£125 set up + £2 per month

Web Logging (Blogging)
£275 - including all necessary pages
A Web Log, or "blog", is a journal that is frequently updated and intended for general public consumption. Blogs generally represent the personality of the author or the Web site and its purpose. Topics sometimes include philosophical musings, commentary on the Internet or other social issues, and links to other sites the author favors. The essential characteristics of the blog are its journal form, typically a new entry each day, and its informal style.

The author of a blog is often referred to as a blogger. People who post new journal entries to their blog may often say they blogged today, they blogged it to their site, or that they still have to blog. (source: Whatis.com)

Other, more serious uses may be for such things as a system notices page such as the one on this site - see the Notices for an example.

Using your web log is as simple as uploading an entry to a folder set up on your account. Each time you upload an entry, the content is automatically added to your Web Log page.

Website Management Service
£0.50/min (£5.00 minimum charge)
Your website is your company’s window to the whole world and often the first contact point for potential clients. After having gone to the expense involved in publishing your new website...

What then ...

Sadly, many sites are then left to fend for themselves and are updated rarely, if at all. This gives a negative impression that can persuade visitors that your company has ceased trading. And what about new products or services, price list changes or special offers? To give the right impression you need to ensure that your site is always right up-to-date.

Maintaining a website is very labour intensive, and many companies cannot justify full time members of staff for the work involved - that is where Smart Art’s services can help...

We can maintain your web site for you.
