Web site design & development
Tucson Web Creation is the perfect choice for those looking to build a web site from the ground up. We begin the process by taking the time to understand your product or service. Next, we perform market research to find out how internet users might find your web site. We look carefully at your set of keywords and key phrases. We check the existing top ten web sites that rank these keywords on the big four search engines: Google, Yahoo, MSN & AOL. We then take this information and begin to layout the basic framework for your project. Careful attention is given to each component: navigation, text content, graphics, look & feel, usability, scalability, page loads and more. You can view your web site in progress in a special location not available to the general public. As the web site progresses, you will have an opportunity to direct changes, make additions and provide suggestions. Once the site is complete, we will take it "live" and submit it to the major search engines.

Web site makeover from existing site
For whatever reason you may want to have your existing web site go through a makeover. It could be that your web site was created several years ago and it has begun to look dated. Or perhaps your original web designer did not build the project to your satisfaction. Maybe you tried to build it yourself and you ran into some trouble. Whatever the reason, Tucson Web Creation is ready to exceed your expectations. Some makeovers are very affordable and simply to execute. Some clients simply don't like the existing look and feel of their web site and want to keep most of the content already in place. In a case like this we can create a new template of graphics including navigation, headers, logo and other key elements. We then apply these elements to your existing content giving you a new and fresh look. Other web makeovers might involve a revamp of your existing content. This might include new photos of your products of service, rewriting your text  to optimize for rankings, adding new pages or creating flash and animation. If you have a web site that is in need of a makeover please send us a quote form outlining your goals.

Site optimization for rankings
Your web design company should take the time to understand how a search engine such as Google or Yahoo ranks web sites. At Tucson Web Creation we look at all aspects SEO. We know that the #1 priority of a search engine is to return relevant results for each search. Optimizing your web site begins before the first page is built. Investigating which web sites are already in the top ten is a good first step. How did they get there and what can we do to help get you ranked is our goal. Companies that promise top ten rankings should be avoided, there are no guarantees. It's up to the engine as to where you will be placed. Using solid SEO techniques such as optimized text, targeted content, incoming links and well crafted page headers are just a few of the many methods we use to get the attention of the engines and site visitors.

SSL security for your domain
Short for Secure Sockets Layer, a protocol developed by Netscape for transmitting private documents via the Internet. SSL uses a cryptographic system that uses two keys to encrypt data − a public key known to everyone and a private or secret key known only to the recipient of the message. Both Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer support SSL, and many Web sites use the protocol to obtain confidential user information, such as credit card numbers. By convention, URLs that require an SSL connection start with https: instead of http:. Tucson Web Hosting installs SSL certificates on our servers for your domain at a fraction of what others charge. Merchants that use a service such as PayPal don't need a certificate since sensitive credit card information is secured by PayPal's server.

We start with your ideas and then offer up some of our own. Logos, templates, custom navigation, photo enhancement and original art are just a few of the possibilities.

It's great if you can get your web site placed in the top ten on all of the search engines for your set of keywords. Most of the time this is not the case. Using pay per click programs to supplement visitors can be cost effective. How much will it cost? This depends on the bidding competition for your words or phrases. Some keywords are cost 20 cents per click while others bid at $2 or more per click. There are a number of strategies that we use to make the process work for you.
