What People Ask

Q:What is it going to cost to have LunarGrid develop our company's web site?

A:At the risk of sounding cliché—it depends. We customize every site we do to the specific requirements of each client. Other developers may quote prices without knowing anything about you and your company’s needs and are going to give you a generic web site that most likely won’t meet them.

Q:If you like simple, clean designs, does that mean you don’t do graphics?

A:Not at all. We have extensive experience in graphic design and photography, and we aren’t afraid to use it. Simple and clean doesn’t mean bare or boring. It means we use appropriate graphics to communicate the message in the best way possible.

Q:Didn’t most of the internet startups go out of business a couple years ago?

A:Yes, a lot of technology companies went out of business in 1999 and 2000. Not because of the internet, but because many didn’t have solid business models or a real customer base.

Q:My niece’s boyfriend knows HTML and can do a site for less. Why shouldn’t I hire him?

A:HTML is only a tiny fraction of what goes into making a business Web site. Does he fully understand why your customers go to your site, and how to make them happy? Does he have the real-world experience to avoid turning off customers with a poorly-implemented site?

Q:I don’t know anything about the Internet. How will I tell you what I need?

A:We only expect you to know about your business. We’ll take care of the rest. Our first step with every project is an effective interview with you to help us get a grasp on the needs of the site, even if you don’t know what they are yet.

Q:Does anyone even use Web sites anymore?

A:An estimated 544.2 million people are online this year, up about 30 million over last year. Although the novelty has worn off, the Internet is not going away. (Source: NUA)

Q:I saw some cool buttons that look like they’re spinning. Can you guys do that?

A:Well, technically we could. But is that what you really need? Will spinning buttons help you sell your product or help your customers find what they’re looking for?
