eBrochures

An eBrochure is a multi-page web site, professionally designed, including rich text, graphics and pictures. Animations and 'Flash' banners can also be included where appropriate.

This type of site is recommended for businesses selling a range of products or services which would not be traded on line. For example, bespoke furniture manufacturers, kitchen designers and fitters, car dealerships and such like.

Such a site would need a good eye-catching home page (like a good brochure cover) to attract peoples interest and encourage them to investigate your site further. Pages can be devoted to individual products or services that you offer. For example, if you are a bespoke furniture maker, you might want separate pages for bedroom furniture, office furniture and kitchen cabinets, each showing examples of your work. You can have a testimonials page, where you can show off your finest work with favourable comments from your clients, you might have a general page to describe your companies history, experience and skills as well as the quality of the materials that you use and you would naturally want a 'contact us' page where visitors to your site can register their interest, request a quotation or ask questions about your products and services.

Once again we advise you not to skimp on your site to save money. If your business really needs an on-line eShop with instant buy and pay features, don't invest in an eBrochure. Internet shoppers will buy their goods from your competitors eShop rather than send an order to you.
