Frequently Asked Questions

Like anything, a good Web site takes time. Because our focus is on custom solutions, we need to work with you to develop your site to meet your needs. It's a very interactive process that will evolve into a fantastic web site for your organization. That being said, to build a Web site properly and thoroughly, you can expect an average timeline of 6-12 weeks. Many sites will take longer due to their complexity, but one of the first things that we deliver is a detailed timeline for the project. With solid communication from our clients, we meet each stage of the project and deliver our web sites on time and within budget.

Global Marketing builds a wide range of web sites, and each site is custom built. That means custom graphics and custom functionality - specifically for your needs and built for your audience. So naturally, we need to sit down with you and truly think through your web site (with you!) before we can deliver a proposal with a cost estimate. Contact us today and set up an in-person or phone meeting to learn how we can help you with YOUR web site. Besides, the initial meeting is free, so give us a call! back to top

Not at all! We work with some pretty big organizations, but we also work with a lot of small and medium sized businesses. Some of our best and most successful clients started out as one-person companies! Of course, one of the big advantages of partnering with Gloabl Marketing while you are just starting off is that you won't have to shift companies as you get larger. We know what works and what doesn't, so we can help you grow according to YOUR schedule.

In our experience, new domains typically achieve search engine visibility approximately two to four weeks after launch of the site. Our partners at MyBelize.Net allows for new sites launched to be placed on their portal for quick indexing. Your site may obtain visibility in Yahoo! and MSN prior to Google, due largely to initial aging delays that withhold new Web sites from Google for a length of time before indexing. While Global Marketing develops Web sites to be compatible with search engine indexing technology, there may be unavoidable delays in obtaining organic visibility. During this delay, focus on your offline and pay-per-click advertising to drive traffic to your site.
