FAQ: (frequently asked questions)

Why should I use nanoSmith for my site?

Sites are often made to look nice, but "under the hood" they are missing critical components to how the world wide web works. NanoSmith.net makes clean and advantageous use of our html and code skills by making sites that are simple. The simple architecture is complemented by a simple user interface, which in turn supply your site with simple maintenance advantages and more efficient promotion capabilities.

Also, nanoSmith also uses superior servers to host sites, making them faster for multi-media, more secure from hackers, and more reliable with advanced server technology.

How do you charge?

For specific projects, we try to give a fixed quote. We prefer doing that. We can give you two figures: the dollars we expect it to cost, and a top figure. We guarantee not to go over the top figure (unless changes in site scope are initiated by the client).

Direct quotes on a site are difficult. Sites often end up larger than initially envisioned and clients tend to see more advantages to adding to the site as the project evolves. We charge hourly rates for specific phases of our projects, depending on site and client needs. With larger projects, our hourly rates are applied at a discount.

The more specific the client is with his needs, the more accurate a quote.

Will I be able to make changes to the site myself?
