Your Web Site:

(either simple 1-page or multiple-page) ...

designed and managed by ARTSHIP; hosted by Systame.com

_______________________________________________________________________________________
Exciting art, literature and product deserve-- no, require-- attractive web sites for their exhibit and sale. The appearance of your site can enhance or demean the quality of your work. Poor grammar, rambling text, confusing navigation tools and the absence of pricing information will drive pot ntial customers away. And most important-- advertising is everything: if your beautiful site is not promoted properly, nobody will find it.

But-- you say-- I haven't got much of a budget for all this. Well, we have solutions.

* For starters, we can finance your initial registration, hosting, and set-up by the month. ** For another, we can link your site to the www.GALLERYARTSHIP.com "mother ship" secure server, saving you the cost of setting up your own sales and credit card mechanisms: ARTSHIP takes the order and pays you before you ship the item.

The Short List Menu:

Your simple, 1-page ad site: WE can design, set up, register, host, and edit a 1-page site which will review your history and mission, give career info, show images, desribe the process and products, and direct buyers to the ARTSHIP site for order fulfillment.We will do minimal promotion to get the site on search engines. The cost for the first year will be only $ 425. After that, it will cost $ 150 per year, including all editing of text and continued hosting.

OR... if you prefer a more detailed, muiltiple-page site: YOUR site will be set up for advertising, info and reviews, "about the artist", TOC, etc..  as much as you wish to display.The secure server through which orders are placed will be provided via link to the Artship site. **

Breakdown of Tasks:

            Site setup: register and basic design ............$ 275

            Design/ placement of content (2-8 pages)... $  200

            Hosting @ $ 35  per month.........................$ 420

            Maintenance / edits @ $ 35/mo.)****.........$ 360

  Publicize the site on search engines: PROMO 1 yr.....  $  780 

**(OR if preferred, you can manage your own merchant account, take orders via credit card, ship product, etc., in which case you will pay an additional $ 900 – 1800 per year to the credit card companies, card equipment merchant and your bank for these fees).

****-(OR-- if Artship simply performs editing (text and images) on your site-- we will charge a mere $ 35 per hour "a la carte" for this design task.f) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

The ADVANTAGES:

# 1.Your own site uses the ARTSHIP secure server, eliminating this cost to you; #2. If you are at a retail or wholesale show or fair or have a private customer who wants to use a credit card, you may use our credit card mechanism and we charge you only 8% to cover our fees; #3. Anyone visiting the ARTSHIP site is referred back to YOUR web site as well; # 4. All your shows, events, books, etc. are published on BOTH sites for additional publicity.
