Services

SPANSE offers a number of services that can help you and your business.

The founder of SPANSE has nearly 20 years experience in website design. We pride ourselves in offering the following services to clients in Australia and overseas (click on the links below for more information):

Domain Name Registration & Management

A domain name, such as spanse.info, is a must if you want to promote yourself or your business on the Internet. You need a domain name that represents your business and is easy for customers to remember and recall.

There are many budget domain name providers - however the majority of these come with strings attached that makes the domain more expensive in the long term.

Domain names registered through SPANSE come complete with a comprehensive domain management control panel that allows you to configure your domain to suit your needs, including domain forwarding, separate mail server entries and even free email forwarding. 

If all of this sounds too technical, don't worry — we can manage it for you. SPANSE offers domains from just $25 +GST per year.

Web Hosting on Local Servers

When you have a website, it needs to be hosted on a server that is connected to the Internet 24/7. SPANSE has dedicated servers for our clients that are located in Australia.

For Australian clients there are two reasons an Australian-based server is important. First, it's faster for locals to access your website. Second, and most importantly, search engines now incorporate the physical location of the web server in the calculation of your search engine ranking.  The closer your business is to the server hosting your website the better your chances of being ranked higher on a search engine results page.

So, if you are an Australian company servicing Australians then it is important that your website is hosted within Australia. SPANSE offers hosting from as little as $15 per month.

SPANSE also services overseas companies. We can investigate and arrange hosting of your website in the country of your choice.

Conventional Website Design

Many companies consider a website to be an online business card and advertisment of their products and services. A conventional website, like this one, is a site that serves static content to the public.  Such a website is perfect for their needs.

SPANSE can build a website for you from as little as AUD$795 +GST — and that includes a year's free hosting!

Dynamic Website Design

Dynamic websites much more complex and use databases to store the information that gets served to the public.  We can build sites that automatically collects and collates data, manages restricted information through membership lists as well as accept online payments securely and safely.

A dynamic website can be built from as little as AUD$3,000 (+GST). However the actual cost will depend upon the functionality you require. Contact SPANSE for a no-obligation discussion of your needs.

Search Engine Optimisation

Search engines, such as Google, Yahoo and Bing employ little programs called web-bots that scour the web, index the contents of web pages and make this information available to it's visitors.

A poorly written website will not be indexed properly by these web-bots. As a result your website will be difficult to find and you will receive fewer visitors.

SPANSE offers Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) services that will help improve your visibility to users of the common search engines (Google, Yahoo & Bing).

If you already have a website we can analyse and report on ways in which it search engine rank can  be improved. The assessment will include a report on the changes requied to improve your search engine ranking.  Your existing web developer can implement these changes or we can make them for you.

Online Advertising Campaigns

There are litterally millions of websites on the Internet and new sites are coming online at an exponential rate.  Although search engine optimisation is important, it's more than likely that your competitors have also optimised their sites. This can make it difficult for your website to appear at the top of a Search Engine Results Page (SERP).

This is where online advertising campaigns can help you. SPANSE specialises in the establishment, monitoring and management of Google Adwords camapigns.

When you search on Google you will often see a number of "sponsored links" at the top of the page and to the right of the search engine results.

Owners of these websites have established an online advertising campaign with Google. Known as Google Adwords, these campaigns are powerful as well as affordable.  You have the option of post-paid or pre-paid advertising and you set your daily spend on advertising.  How much you are willing to pay for a person to click on your link will determine where your advert will appear on the search engine results page.

SPANSE can establish a Google Adwords campaign for you and either manage it on your behalf or show you how to manage the campaign for yourself.

Website Traffic Analysis and Reporting

A website is a business essential in the 21st Century. Whether you have paid a few hundred or many thousands of dollars for your site, it is all for nothing if no one is visiting it.

Many web hosts provide rudimentary log analysis tools that allow you to see what "hits" your site is receiving. However many of these tools give biased results. Many treat non-human web-bot visits as valid hits. This and other factors can grossly over-estimate the perception of how popular a particular website is.

SPANSE uses Google Analytics to analyse a websites visitation statistics and trends. it is a powerful tool and is not for the faint-hearted. SPANSE can establish Google Analytics reporting on your site and arrange for reports to be emailed to you on a regular basis.
