ONTRIX offers a number of great web site design packages
to small businesses. Each package is designed to meet clients’
specific needs and budget.
A template is a pre-packaged visual design. It defines the
overall look of your web site, including the background,
main navigation links, and masthead area. You'll choose
which look you want from a template catalog, and then it
will be turned into a web site that contains your words
and pictures. Template web sites are cheaper than custom-built
web sites, and they can be finished quickly. On the contrary,
the site can look generic, and there is no guarantee that
other websites are not using the same template as you. Template
web sites are intended to provide solid ground for people
who want to get high-quality web sites online in a fast
and simple way. Templates are also a tool for other designers
who want to start with a working layout and add a great
visual appearance along with their content.
Templates are built in a "one-size-fits-all" fashion,
which makes them suitable for many different kinds of web
sites. They are easy to customize, and they are very simple
in code and layout structure. The more generic they are,
the more useful they are since simplicity is a big feature.
The basic layout, accessibility features, low file size,
and a simple navigation system are more important than beautiful
images and flashy effects. Usability is what template designs
are all about. Company logos and images may be incorporated
into the site, but the capacity for customization is limited.
Template sites are best for small businesses with very low
web site budgets or for whom the web site is not a major
component of the overall business.
Companies interested in customizing templates (re-organizing
images/buttons, changing colors, etc.) should consider the
Custom Web Site Design which allows significantly more freedom.
