DR Contracts is a construction company based in Kilkeel County Down, and has been in business for over 10 years. Company owner Declan felt the time was right to produce a website to help promote his business online and develop the company image. Declan met with Logon.ni to discuss the options open to him.
Different methods of producing a website were explained to Declan, such as employing a website designer or using self build packages. The features and benefits of each option was fully explained. Declan was looking for a simple, low cost website which he can maintain and develop himself and decided to build his own using one of the packages available to download from the Internet.
Declan received information from Logon.ni on how to use the package to construct his website. He was instructed on how to choose a design template to form the basis of his website, how to use the menus and colour palettes to customise the website design and how to upload images and logo’s to personalise the website and create a strong company image. Declan also received assistance on changing the default font and size of text, how to create a customised header, how to insert modules and features such as a slide show or video and how to insert text to the body of the website. Declan was also provided with written instructions and directed to online help facilities for reference. Logon.ni tutored Declan on how to choose a suitable domain name for the website, and how to register the domain name.
The guidance Logon.ni provided enabled Declan to create a cost effective online presence which is a valuable reference point for new and existing customers. He also has the tools to develop and maintain his company website, and regularly update the web pages to maximise the effect of the website for his business.
‘It was very useful to receive assistance to build my website. The information was explained to me in great detail and was easy to understand. It will help me promote my business online using my broadband connection. Thank you.’ – Declan, DR Contracts
