Website Packages

Specially Designed for the Mining Industry

A Website is a series of hypertext-linked documents (files) providing comprehensive details of a company, product or service. It uses YOUR words and promotes YOUR company YOUR way. In addition to conventional text, a Website can contain colourful graphics, tables, response forms and a variety of fonts, providing a visually appealing way of presenting company or product information. Websites can even display your annual report EXACTLY as you have it printed, using PDF file format (Adobe Acrobat). Your Website is accessible from anywhere in the world, free of charge, to anyone who has access to the World Wide Web.

How to Get Started

STEP 1

Contact us for a FREE, no obligation needs analysis and custom quote. We provide website quotations in three parts:

• Design and construction - InfoMine designed websites can be simple or complex, depending on the clients needs and budget.
• Hosting - This is the cost of registering your domain name (eg. www.yourname.com), submitting your website details to the major search engines and storing your website on the InfoMine server.
• Maintenance - This is to ensure that your website is routinely up-to-date with text edits, news releases and additional pages or graphics.

With your approval to begin development, we will prepare a site map indicating exactly how your site will be laid out, ie. exactly what subjects will be covered and how each section will be connected.

A typical mining company's website might look something like the site map below with further sections under the ones indicated here.

A typical industry supplier's website might look like something like this with additional pages within each section.

You can see how it's important to be clear from the beginning exactly what will be included, how the average visitor would navigate through the site and whether or not the site would be developed in phases.

STEP 2

Forward to us, preferably electronically, the text and graphics (including your logo) for the content of your site. Text can be in HTML, ASCII, Word or WordPerfect file formats, and graphics can be in CDR, BMP, TIF, EPS, GIF or JPG formats. Often, good quality hard copies of graphics are quite acceptable, from which we can scan the required graphics

STEP 3

Following a review of your text and graphics we will prepare one or two sample pages for your approval before developing your entire site. Once we have your approval on the overall design and layout we will proceed.

STEP 4

Once your site is complete and has your final approval, we will promote your site to the major Internet search engines and throughout InfoMine.
