Comparitive Review of Small Business Web Solution Providers

I'm providing a comparative review of the two in this post . To start with , both companies provide a free initial quote to all prospective customers . The server's used for web-hosting by both are reliable so there is no fear about a server crashing .

Website Design : There is the option of choosing from standard packages for a particular type of business such as E-Commerce or restaurants depending upon the consumer . Web.com has an E-works XL package as per which you get a professionally-designed small business website published quickly . Small biz express takes the same time for the job but the difference being , while web.com goes on to develop your site based on the initial questionnaire that is common to all customers , Small Biz Express reaches out to the customer after the first draft is ready so the customer has the option of seeing it before it is online and is able to make any changes he see's fit thereby offering greater end satisfaction.
The pricing of the two is roughly the same if you look at it in term's of the whole year although web.com appears cheaper initially through the E-works XL program. Delve deeper though and the 95$ charged by Web.com for the month and services roughly equal the overall cost charged by Small Biz Express over a longer period . Users also have the option of going for higher end packages which gives the customer a secure login area to monitor exactly what goes on and E-mail submissions , both of these options are unavailable at Web.com plus the submission to a larger number of search engines . Both offerings are tremendously competitive so it comes down to the customer to pick what suits his business best .

Search Engine Optimization is probably more important a step than the setting up of the website , without it , your webpage could very well be lost in the million's of other pages on the web . Here's where SEO come's in to ensure your site is at the top of the search results , Small Biz express has different packages of SEO to suit your needs with a dedicated account manager and unlimited updates once a month , constant monitoring of your site is done . Both sites take care of your data so you don't have to worry about anything and both boast of many satisfied customers as you can see on their respective website's . The post setup service provided by web.com however is a tad inferior because of lesser interaction with the user but their blog review service is impressive thereby providing you with a considerably large network base .

The third part is Online marketing such as E-mail marketing and pay per click which complete the package . The pay per click campaign of Small Biz express is more economical and just as effective as a similar package given by web.com . The e-mail marketing which might seem slightly on the expensive side is offset by the 100,000 contacts which guarantee that you have a large return on your investment .

They also offer to work on already existing websites on specific requirements such as search engine optimization or online marketing . Eventually the choice comes down to the user to pick the best package based on individual needs . Hoping this was useful .
