Domain Name Registrar Go Daddy Launches Custom Web Site Design Service

July 18, 2007; 05:06 AM

Domain name registrar GoDaddy.com announced it is now offering a new Custom Web site Design service, where you can pay one price, provide your own photos and text, and have Go Daddy’s professional designers put together your Web site.

“Go Daddy knows having the right Web site these days is a key to growing your business, marketing products, attracting new customers and even just letting people know where your store is,” said Barb Rechterman, executive vice president of Go Daddy, the world’s leading domain name registrar and seller of a variety of Internet products. “Our customers told us they wanted a simple way to get a beautiful Web site, so we came up with our Custom Web site Design, where you can get professional design for a fraction of the cost you might normally pay a freelance Web designer.”

According to the Pew Internet and American Life Project, 63 percent of Americans expect a business to have a Web site that gives them information about a product they’re considering buying. If a store provides product information online -- even if it doesn’t actually sell the products at its Web site -- nearly half of all Americans say that would make them more likely to go to the store to buy the product.

That’s why Go Daddy wants to make it easy for anyone to take a business online. Customers can go to GoDaddy.com, and within just minutes, they can register a domain name, get Web site hosting and email services, and purchase Quick Shopping Cart, a tool for retail checkout so you can sell products online. Also available at the site is the new Custom Web site Design service, which is available in a variety of plans and price ranges. The choices are helpful for small business owners worried about sticking to a budget.

Using Go Daddy’s Custom Web site Design process is incredibly easy. Web design specialists are available throughout the entire process to make sure the Web site reflects the customer’s needs. Plus, monthly Web site updates are included to ensure that the customer's content remains current.

“Lost, confused and overwhelmed are a few words that describe my feelings when I was first given the task of creating a department Web site… but Go Daddy put together all the information for the site as fast as I could send it,” said Patrolman Gabriel Farese of New Jersey’s Union Beach Police Department. “They created a great fresh look and helped fuel ideas. In the end, everyone who saw the Web site was very pleased, including my police chief. I will recommend Go Daddy's services to anyone. Excellent job!”

If businesses need a new logo, Go Daddy also now offers a new Custom Logo service with the same personal involvement from professional designers. Customers get three logo options specifically tailored to their needs within a speedy turnaround time. The chosen logo can be used for business cards, letterhead, signs, ads and more.
