Do I Need A Website

If you're so well known and are making so much money that you don't need additional business, your customers never use the Internet, and this will always be true, no. Otherwise, even if you're not selling a product or service of any kind online, your business needs a website.

Portfolio

Here is a small sampling of websites we have developed.

Ely MN and Iron Range Web Design

Today a website is the best way to contact potential customers and clients, to provide information to a worldwide audience and to build a database of potentially lucrative contacts. We provide web design services to businesses in Ely, MN, Babbit, MN and anywhere on the Iron Range of Minnesota

Your website works 24 hours a day and can be as thorough and in-depth as you desire. The Internet is one of the most cost effective methods of advertising available and with increased interactivity, your website becomes an important new tool for interacting with customers, clients and others with interest (here's even more reasons to consider a website as part of your business strategy).

If you know what you want, discuss it with us - free of charge - and we will prepare an estimate of the work needed and the costs involved for your approval.

Design to Budget
If you know what your budget is but don't know what you can get for it, talk it over with us - it's free - and we'll prepare a proposal for the best web design consistent with your budget and needs. Free proposal.

Design to an Idea
Perhaps you need to discuss with a professional what a website can do for you. Perhaps you've thought of a product or service that you'd like to offer over the Internet. We'll help you understand the potential and the requirements for your business or your idea. Maybe we'll recommend an approach you haven't thought of or we might even discourage you, but in any case asking us is free.
