How is Promonamics Able To Provide Such Relatively Low Prices? |
Our services are only to provide the skills and the time necessary to design
your website. The software we use makes it quick and easy to create and manage
websites, therefore it is not necessary for us to spend much time programming in
html or other programming languages. Pages are easily linked and designs
permeate through to all areas of the website. This is the beauty of what is
known as a content management system. If it is easy to build sites using a
content management system it is even easier for you to maintain them. It isn't
hard to believe that content management systems often cost as much or more than
what many services charge for building a website from scratch, however, we use
what is called open source software.
A phenomena has arisen on the internet called open source. The idea behind it
is that instead of a private team of developers creating software with a
commercial license developers from all over the world can work on software that
is freely distributed and everyone in turn derives mutual benefit. These are
professional developers who in many cases use the open source software itself to
build sites for large businesses and institutions.
Promonamics has scoured the internet for the best solutions we can find and
came across the content management system called Joomla. It seems to have the
largest and most proactive user base, is noted for being very user friendly and
has been implemented on several large institutional sites. Security is a primary
concern of the developers and many security patches and tools are continually
released and easily implemented. To date there have been no serious security
flaws requiring software updates.
We also take the programming solutions developed by these professional
developers and implement them into your website as "add-ons" to perform whatever
function you may desire. There are literally hundreds of these "add-ons" capable
of many tasks.
We charge only for the services we perform, not the content management
system, and we don't charge by the hour, but by the results.
