Riverview's Web Design Division can create a new site or completely revamp an existing site. We strive to incorporate the identity of a company into the web site design. We integrate practicality, experience, graphic design, marketing knowledge and e-commerce to attain customer needs. Our goal is to help you utilize the potential of the World Wide Web, to whatever extent that might be.

No one web site is the same or requires the same level of development, so there is no one set price. Discussing the project will not only provide us the information needed in determining the costs, but also allows us to offer alternative solutions and explanations on how certain programming works.

Web sites can be informational and attractive or absolutely annoying. Creating a web site takes a professional, just like any other profession. You will get what you pay for or don't.

Web Design ....
A web site is a reflection of you and your business. Riverview can help design an atmosphere which represents you and the customers you want to reach. We take into account graphics that can enhance or deter from the message of your site. How many and size effects downloads, which is still a long wait for some.

Navigation is an important part of your site, it needs to be easy to understand. Riverview can help make your information flow and easily accessible. We will also instruct you on what information needs to be provided by you and not another site. (once they leave they may not come back)

Use effective copy. If you are short on time, so are your customers. Keep your copy to the point and easy to read. Don't supply all the answers. Remember, you want them to contact YOU for more information.

Web Development ....
The Internet's ability to operate 24 hrs. a day, provide up-to-date information, collect customer information, and receive orders gives you another avenue to reach current and potential customers. The major benefit of having a web site is the ability to change information at anytime. So when you have decided to move in the middle of the year and the phone book still has your old address, your customers can still know where to find you.

Your web site can announce the arrival of a new line of products and post reviews. Riverview can develop forms that collect customer data, credit information and provide for member login. We can integrate Flash or other media files into the site.

Allow customers to make suggestions and find out what they need. Develop customer loyalty and receive valuable information at the same time.

Programming ....
Anything can be accomplished with programming. There are a number of programming languages that we utilize for different results. So it comes down to what do you want?

Do you have a database you want to access from anywhere? Do you need to collect and store customer information, purchases, history? Would a discussion board be useful? Do you need set access limits or purchasing limits?

Marketing....
First rule of promoting your new web site is - make sure all of your current advertising media has your site address included, from your business cards to radio advertising.

Marketing your web site requires a certain amount of investment of both time and money. Not really any different than other advertising avenues. Riverview can help you understand how the search engines work, what to expect and how much of a budget you need, if you want to make an impression on the web.

Of course, not every site is looking to become a regional or national icon. Local businesses need a site, but being in a top 10 or 20 position on a search engine isn't necessary. Riverview can show you ways to retain customer loyalty and also develop new ones.

Maintenance ....
Riverview develops web sites in different editors. If your company wishes to maintain the site and update the copy itself, we will develop the site for that specific need and train you. Riverview can also provide the maintenance for your site, if it seems to complicated or if you just do not have the time to invest in keeping it updated.

Video....
Riverview has a video division "Rivo Productions", whereby we can offer to tape tutorials, product demonstrations or whatever your company may need. We can also apply video to your site in 3 different formats. We can also edit and save your video to VHS and/or DVD.

Hosting....
Riverview provides web hosting, that includes no size restriction on the site and 20 email accounts. We provide POP3, IMAP and SMTP (for a nominal fee if requested). Our server is Linux based, providing a more stable and more secure environment. Our hosting fee for a normal site is $24.95 and for sites that include databases or extensive e-commerce packages, the fee begins at $49.95. Riverview reserves the right to re-evaluate the bandwidth usage of the site after 6 months and re-negotiate hosting fees if necessary.

Our hosting fees include personal service and ensures that someone will be available to respond to problems or questions in person.
