1. Your own personal page or 'mini' website.

Instead of having a 'conventional' advertisement as previously described (advertising), you can have a personal page on this website. The layout and content would include brief details of your business, logo, history, products etc, including a few photographs. The page resembles a page in a colour brochure. It functions like a mini website and may be ideal for you prior to having a full size website designed. A web page costs £120.00 which  is a 'one-off' fee. As an example see one of these following webpages. (These examples are on other websites produced by our web co-ordinator - The Bath Farmers Market, and the Wiltshire Farmers Markets) To return to this page, click on the 'back' button at the top left of the page.

Care Rowde - A local charitable organisation assisting the disabled.

  www.davidfelce.co.uk - A supplier of high quality fish products

www.west-somerset-farmed-venison.co.uk - A supplier of Venison products.

Click here for more details. Once the web page is completed it is placed in the 'Business Links' page.

   2) Your own Domain Name.

This allows visitors to go straight to your web-page without going via the Mendip Life website. This effectively gives you your own 'stand-alone' mini-website at a low cost. For example www.davidfelce.co.uk . (This is a web-page, as an example, on the Bath Farmers Market website) - Domain names cost £35.00 for a .co.uk or £50.00 for a .com. (for 2 years) Other suffixes are available. Click here for more details.

   3) Your own 'full size' website

We can design a website for you at a very competitive price. This site was designed by SpiderSpider  -  contact our web co-ordinator at the address at the bottom of the page.

1. Your own personal page or 'mini' website.

1) Basic package - £120.00 - This includes one extra ‘page’ on the  Mendip Life web site for your personal details - we suggest below some detail which you might like to include - note: you do not need to include the following detail, it is just a guide, you can put whatever you want on your page as long as the total content does not exceed the total below.

a) Introduction - (This introduction should be kept short) The traders name, logo, photograph if required, brief description of produce / service, location of business and contact details etc.

b) A more detailed description and history of the trader, plus location, map, production methods etc. The amount of text and pictures which can be included here for the above price is 300 words maximum, plus 4 pictures/photographs. (Note: 300 words will fill about one third of this A4 page)

c) List of produce and products sold, with prices, availability, and any other details. If the trader has their own brochure, price list, product list etc, this can be scanned-in and used in the page, assuming the quality is suitable to produce a legible image on the final web-site. If all the details need re-typing, there is a limit to the amount of text which can be included in this basic cost package. The amount of text and pictures which can be included here for the above price is 300 words maximum plus 4 pictures/ photographs/ price lists / brochure pages ( 300 words will fill about one third of this A4 page using this font size)

The total amount of information which can be included in (a), (b), and (c) for this £120.00  price is 600 words approx, plus 8 pictures. Note: this is flexible and can be apportioned across the page in any order. ( 600 words will fill about two thirds of this A4 page, using this font size)

Once the web page is completed it is placed in the 'Business Links' page.

Click on the following name to see an example of a personal page: www.davidfelce.co.uk 

Adding extra pages.

Any number of additional pages for your business can be included on the web-site at additional cost. It is not possible to estimate the cost of additional pages without knowing the nature of the content and quantity. Our website co-ordinator (address at bottom of page) will be happy to give you an estimate for additional pages.

2) Your own Domain Name

The best way to get  yourself identified on the internet is to buy a domain name. This is the name by which you would like to be known. It is rather like a company name. 

For example Acme Tractors might like to call themselves www.acme.com. A domain name is always preceded by www (standing for world wide web) and finishes with a suffix indicating whether it is a global organisation e.g. .com, or indicating which country the web site is based in. For example the United Kingdom is .uk, and Russia is .ru. This is not a strict rule, anyone can call themselves .com, but it is generally accepted as being a sensible practice.

Whilst the web page outlined above is designed for your business, it is actually still part of the Mendip Life web site, and this is the only name that the overall web site can have. In other words, if anyone wants to see your web site they have to go to the Mendip Life website first, then find your name from the 'business link' page..

If you would like prospective customers to find your web-page, or mini website first, it is possible to give your personal web page its own domain name, just like a full size website.

 

 

You can specify what name you would like. Several options would help, and we can carry out a search to see if anyone else has already bought that particular name. If it is still available we can purchase it for you, and you will have exclusive use of that name for 2 years. You may renew it after 2 years for a similar fee plus any inflationary increase.

We then attach a 'redirect' to the domain name, rather like redirecting a phone call, to go to your personal web page on the Chew Valley Gazette site. So anyone typing in your domain name, will see only your page on the Mendip Life web site, and not have to go right through the whole site from the beginning. There will be a 'button' on your page so that you can view the Mendip Life site if you would like to.

An example of this is www.davidfelce.co.uk which is a page on the Bath Farmers Market website, click on the name to view the web page. (If you look at this, you will need to click on the 'back' button to return to this page)

This is a very inexpensive way to have a 'mini web site'. The domain name can be attached to a full size web site at a later stage if required. You can move it wherever you wish.

The cost of your own domain name is £35.00 for a .co.uk, and £50.00 for a .com. (for 2 years) There are other suffixes which we can discuss with you. (Biz, Org, etc)

Once the web page is completed it is placed in the 'Business Links' page.

3) Your own 'full size' website
