An internet web page uploaded
onto the World wide web giving details of your company so that anyone in
the world can see the products and services that you have to offer. |

This can be your own domain

There are many variations of a web address available to you.

It must be visually
appealing.
Internet is very much a visual medium. |
|
It must download
quickly onto your visitors monitor.
Internet surfers have very little patience for slow web sites. |
|
Your web site must be easy

Too much scrolling on long pages is not advisable. |
