On-Site Training
After your site is ready, you can take advantage of a one-time,
special offer for on-site training.
You can have us come to your place of business,
help set up your computer, install the free software tools,
and show you how to update your web site.
You need about half a day of attention.
At our normal rate of $75/hour, 4 hours would cost $300.
With this special offer, you only pay $100 ($25/hour).
We will visit your location and spend 4 hours
with you minus the time it takes us to get there (we will pay for the
time it takes to get home).
During that time we will:
- Set up your web site on your PC so you can look at it
with your browser.
- Install an FTP program to transfer files and an Html editor
to edit Html pages.
- Show you how to edit your web site yourself.
- Address other needs or problems you may have.
