Yes, people will see your website. We will assist you in selecting the key words that internet users might use to look for sites like yours. Because your site will be open to the whole world, these words are key to being found by the various search engines.

9. How do I tell people about my website?
You start out by launching the site with the key words in place. Then you include your website address in everything that a customer might see: your letterhead, business cards, invoices and statements, printed advertising and even in your emails. Many commercials on TV are there only to tell the viewer to go to their website.

10. How do people buy my products?
Your customers can call you, can email you or can fax you inquiries and orders based on the information on your website. The website can contain easy links that will create email or instant messages. You will determine the best way for your customers to reach you based on your products and methods of operations.

11. How do I get paid for my products?
You can accept credit card payments or you can establish a PayPal account to accept payment for your products and services.

12. How does PayPal work?
PayPal is a secure method of making and accepting payments for transactions with the certainty that the payment is real and the credit card information is protected. Businesses seeking to receive payments through PayPal establish an account with the service. There is a transaction fee deducted from each payment. The customer also establishes an account with the service. The customer informs PayPal to charge their credit card for the transaction amount. When this transaction has been accepted by the credit card company, the funds are then deposited into the seller's bank account less the transaction fee. If an adjustment has to be made to a transaction, the seller issues a credit and PayPal transfers the credit back to the customer.

13. How much does PayPal charge to process a payment?
The transaction fee is about 3% which is about the same as the credit card companies charge for processing credit card payments.
