web design, consulting and hosting

the internet is a vast, rapidly growing market.

there are many reasons to bring your business to the net:

to establish a presence,
to make business information available,
to network,
to support your customers,
to heighten public interest,
to release time sensitive materials,
to reach a highly desirable demographic market,
to serve your local market or the global market ...

but, most importantly:

to add to the bottom line.

good web design is directed towards the expectations and demands of your (potential) customer. who is this customer? what kind of computer equipment does your customer use? where is your customer located?

web means an international as well as a local approach. is your company strictly local? do you have products that could be interesting for other areas, states or countries? where is your target market, and, again, who is your customer?

design does not necessarily include flashy graphics. design is the tool that lets the customer find what s/he is looking for - fast. design is a statement about your company, and about how seriously you take your customer's wishes.

the worldwideweb is at the same time the most over-estimated and under-estimated means of marketing communication. the common misconception is to expect too much in short term revenue and to underestimate the long-term gratification.

as a company, you will not have the luxury of contemplating if you want to be on the web. with that rapid growth and the changes in customer behavior you have to advertise that you exist. even on a local basis, customer surf the web to find a shop in their neighborhood. so the question is not: if?, the question is: when - and how?

efficient web design is not easy, and does not come cheap. it is a joint effort between your company and the design company.

at orion hitek we believe in usability and accessibility. and we mean that literally: our sites are approved for disabled accessibility.
