Almost every family has a broadband connection (ADSL, wire) by now. As for the companies, this is nearly a 100%. This is an interesting development for designers, because before, you had to pay a lot of attention to quick loading the pages through a classic modem, whereas now this is of less importance. However, you risk now that designers start huge animations and videos through your wire, causing delay and time to wait for the user. We take care not to commit this mistake.
Our websites are hosted on servers connected close to the “mainstream” of the Internet in Belgium. In technical jargon : on a data centre connected to several backbones. In common language, this means that a visitor with a broadband connection can surf on the site as if he were working on his own computer.
Depending on the waiting-list, let’s say you can have a website in one week. Who is first on this list ? The one providing us soonest with his information (texts and graphical material). In other words : suppose we make 10 clients in a certain period, but you are the first with all info ready, you are the first we work for. Unfortunately, we experience too often that customers do not provide basic information, or not enough, so as to be able to start building the website. This is why we apply this simple but fair rule.
