General Questions |
How can Ownspot offer so many sophisticated services for so little
money? |
| We've automated many services that have traditionally
been done manually, so we can pass the savings on to you. Its
that simple. And that means we can provide you with low-cost access
to powerful technology and specialized skills that might not have been
affordable to your business.
Besides, We want our customers to get more than what they pay for.
Because in this day and age, you need more than just a plain website
to let your presence be known on the Internet.
|

No additional software is required. If you can
see this page, you have all you need. Ownspot does everything for you
via your Web browser.  |
Which web browsers does Ownspot support? |
We recommend using the latest full-release versions
of either Microsoft Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator. Ownspot

How is Ownspot different from other website building companies? |
Honestly, we don't think there is a comparison.
In addition to being cost-effective, Ownspot provides state-of-the-art,
yet extremely easy-to-use tools and a wide range of special services
you can add to your site. |
Why shouldnt I just hire someone to build my website or do
it myself? |
Everyone knows that hiring website designers
can be very costly, not to mention time-consuming. Ownspot also eliminates
the need for you to buy, install, and learn how to create websites on
your own. There will be no burden with locating and setting up web hosting
at an Internet Service Provider, establishing and registering an Internet
address (domain name), and finally installing your completed website.
These tasks are automatically done for you when you become a member.
In addition, we continually upgrade our system and closely monitor technology
trends, incorporating the most valuable advancements into the Ownspot
service. This way, we deliver the finest technology and design services
available, so that you can concentrate on doing what you do best, your
business.  |
How long does it take to get my website online with Ownspot? |
Your site can be online, delivering pages worldwide
in just a few minutes. In one hour or less, you can have a robust, sophisticated
site ready for your customers, clients, and associates. |

your industry or service and make your website a valuable source by

any Internet-connected computer, including a friends, a family
members, or one at the public library. The only requirement is
that you must have a valid email address.

Technical Questions |
Is the World Wide Web a safe place to do business? |
Most experts consider the Internet to be as
safe or safer than other business transaction mediums. Ownspot uses
encryption and other sophisticated technologies to insure your safety.
For instance, our online registration system uses the SSL (secure sockets
layer) standard when you register. This technology safeguards all your
information, including your credit card information, by encrypting it
during transit over the Internet. Most experts consider this safer than
using your credit card person-to-person because fewer unauthorized persons
have access to your confidential information.  |
What is a URL, Web address, or domain name? |
A URL is the address of your Website. It stands
for Universal Resource Locator. For most purposes, the words "domain
name" and "URL" can be used interchangeably. This address
tells a user's Web browsing software (Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape
Navigator, etc.) where to go on the Internet to find a website.  |
What is HTML? |
HTML is the computer coding language that makes
web pages possible. As an Ownspot member, you won't need to concern
yourself with HTML. Our powerful automation technology allows you to
publish sophisticated websites visually, with no HTML knowledge whatsoever. |
Do I need to know HTML, have Internet networking skills, know other
computer languages, or possess multimedia design skills? |
Absolutely not! The best benefit of Ownspot
is that you need no special computer skills whatsoever. Ownspot's automated
systems handle all these details for you. Ownspot builds high-quality
web graphics, HTML codes, and taps powerful programs all with point-and-click
ease. We register your custom domain name, list your website with major
search engines, and more - all automatically. You simply concentrate
on making your site a great vehicle for communicating to your audience.
It's that simple.  |
What if I already know HTML? Can I use it? |
Yes! Ownspot accepts HTML into all of its fields.
If you desire to use HTML, you are free to include it in your pages.
