What happens to my website if Kwikwap goes out of business?
This is an important question to ask when selecting a web design company.
Kwikwap is an established Web Design Company with more than 2000 clients all over South Africa. Besides the Head Office Franchise there is already 8 other operating franchises.
Kwikwap is thus established and likely to be in business for a long time.
No other company designs as many websites on a daily basis as Kwikwap.
Can I arrange to pay for the website design in installments?
No. You have to pay the full amount on the day you receive training and the website is handed over to you.
In whose name do you register the domain?
We regsiter the name in our name on your behalf. This is simply to simplify admin. Once you have paid for the domain then that implies ownership. We will release your domain provided you are not in arrears with your hosting fees which is payable monthly. Either party can give 30 days notice to cancell the hosting agreement.
How much does a demo of Kwikwap cost?
Nothing. I will come and spend 30 minutes to demonstrate Kwikwap to you for free.
Do I have to host with Kwikwap?
Yes and no... you basically rent the software on which your website is built from Kwikwap. You can not take your website and host it somewhere else without paying Kwikwap a monthly fee. You can choose to stay with your current hosts and point your www.records to the Kwikwap servers.
How often can I change my template?
You can change your templateonce a day if you like. You do not lose any data.All that changes is where your data is displayed.
Can I do my own design to Kwikwap?
Yes we can manually link your design to the Kwikwap product at an additional cost. You will have all the normal benefits except you willnot be able to changethe look and feel of your website. Hopefully soon you will be able to automatically upload your complete own designed website automatically.
Is there a limit on the number of pages I can have on my website?
No we do not have an official limit on the number of pages but expect 500 pages.
What is the most important thing a website owner can do to improve Search Engone Results with their Kwikwap Website
Probably the most important factor when it comes to doing well on search engines under organic search results is that you must have a proper informative website and most importantly always use your own original data. Do not copy data from other websites. Always write in a natural way and consider factors such as key Word Density. Google Webmaster Tools is a good place to get more information on SEO. (Search Engine Optimisation)
What if Kwikwap's hosting fees suddenly goes trough the roof?
There has not been an increase in the hosting fees since inception. It would be fair to expect inflation linked increases in future but Kwikwap are also subject to the laws of demand and offer and any unrealistic increase would see them lose too much clients.
Where do you build/create the websites?
Building or designing your website is a process. We will do some of that at our own offices and some of it in your presence. We do not expect you to proceed with your website unless you are happy with what the website looks like. The more information that we are supplied with when starting the project the easier it is for us to design a website for you. We need about two or three meetings with you to finalise the website.
Why do you design websites?
We love doing the work that we do. We need to be salesman, artists, teachers, business administrators and professionals. Without an awesome product like Kwikwap we would probably not be in the industry. Kwikwap is busy changing the web design industry for small businesses. Firstly it is affordable, secondly it is user friendly and thirdly it changes peoples lives for the better. Business people and website owners can no longer ignore having proper content on their websites and with a user friendly tool such as Kwikwap a good informative website can be build up over time.
Is it better to have one website with a lot off data when we provide different products and services?
Depending on the nature of the differences in the products and services it may sometimes be better to have a different website for different products and services.
Francois for example is a qualified accountant and also does business plans.
Some people do not want to get a website done by a nerd accountant - lol! It just does not suit the image and people respect specialists.
Beside the "image" factor there is also the important "Keyword density factor".
"Keywords density" measures the number of times/percentage a keyword appears divided by the total number of words of a website.
In order to get higher rankings we need to make things simple for Google so Google can understand what our websites are about.
When
you have "jack of all trades"- websites keywords get diluted, Google is
unsure what your website is about and can not present your website to
the targeted audience as an option when people search for specific
things.
So by having specialist websites we can get better rankings because
of Keyword density, because Google knows what we are all about and
Google are trying to deliver better results when people search for
specific things.
To understand this concept better it is best to use a practical example.
Google for a laminate floor installer / service. See which websites comes up first. Always the guys who specialise in laminate floors. Installing laminate floors are easy and many builders and or handy men can also install laminate floors and in fact do offer those services. Very seldom will you find those websites on page 1 of google when people are searching for laminate floors. Why? Because of keyword density, because the builder also does plumbing, electrical work, tiling etc.
The person searching for Laminate floors wants Laminate floors and what better website to present (when Google gives back search results) than those websites specialising in Laminate Floors.
How do i improve my Google Results?
This is the question that everybody wants to know. You can either pay Google (Sponsored Ads) or get to page one of Google for Generic Search Terms. You need to get proper guidance and training to be able to manage your own website with a focus on using YOUR OWN, original content. Content is King. We will submit your website to robots with Sitemaps .
I don't know what to put on my website. Any ideas for content for my website?
Yes. We do it ourselves. We scrutinize our email outbox and inbox to expand on our frequently asked questions section for our website as well as trying to improve on our website's general information.
Here is a practical example of an email just send out to a client a couple of minutes ago.
Like a professional golf player ,without thinking we are able to write emailslike this. It would be better if we had a topic on this subject which is good enough to send to a new client. I hope we have.
See Newsletter / Blog about the basics of a website.
Here is the email and I have just absically repeated myself. ( A properly written complete website should save a business owner time which is why I write a lot, but unfortunately i like it so much I end up having more and more wrok that needs editing and proofreading. Lol!
Mr Karriem
I see that Melanie has made the website look nicer.
I have noticed that your about us text , which is important for Google, has not been written.
Also that the Faq section could be expanded on.
Try and write in a natural way but try and use important Keywords like...
Eg
Start the about us with something like this:
Budget Furniture sells quality Budget Furnity to the public from its shops in Ottery , Cape Town. People from all over Cape Town visit us for regular specials on products like coffee tables , beds, drawers. We are well known for.......
Then , only then, start with...
We are a family business started in 1991.....
Then for faq's
Does Budget Furniture offer Guarantees on it's cheap furniture?
We do not sell cheap furniture, but quality furniture at low (budget) prices. Guarantees are available and depend on the manufacturer.
You will be pleasantly surprised at the results if you follow our advice on content on your website.
Allways use your own text, don't copy from other websites.
I see Melanie has received quite a bit of photographs?
I hope you can meet and the right person can get the training but may i suggest we first focus on the basics like the about us text, products and the faq's.

My Kwikwap Webwerf lyk nie so goed nie. Weet ook nie of dit so goed werk nie? Het bietjie opleiding vergeet. Kan julle help?
daar is n maatskappy www.sureweb.co.za wat vir R300-R500 jou webwerf mooi kan laat oordoen sonder dat iets verander behalwe die look and feel. sien asb onder value added.
- dan sien ek jy kort 'n paar key woorde onder admin and reports, business description.
die ander basiese goed wat goed gedoen moet wees is:
- jou about us paragraaf is belangrik en veral die inleiding(dis ook keywoorde wat google gebruik om jou te indekseer)
- die titels van jou produk bladsye (gebruik terme waarvoor jy deur soekenjins gevind wil word)
- die inhoud wat jou produk bladsye beskryf moet voldoende wees (genoegsame inligting sowel as unieke inligting)
- veelgestelde vrae (faq's)
Melanie is steeds gebaseer in Tokai.
Ek is seker sy sal nie omgee om weer tyd te spandeer aan opleiding as julle in die omgewing is ander kan sy julle dalk sien wanneer sy 'n klient in julle area het
Ons het mooi templates nou. Melanie is goed met Photoshop. Sy kan ook dalk iets moois vir julle webwerf doen soos 'n animated banner of so. Dink sy sal ook iets nice kan doen vir R300-R500 .
