Many corporate web sites use content management systems that allow employees who lack computer expertise to make changes to the web site. With the Terra Content Management System (CMS) you and your employees can easily manage your web site. With the Terra CMS you fill out simple online forms to add text and photos to your web pages. You don't need complicated or expensive software like Dreamweaver. You just work in the same browser you use for seeing your web site. For online shopping our E-Commerce Special adds a full service shopping cart to your site. We also have several options for adding a newsletter. If you are looking for something extra special we can fully customize your web site with a unique layout and design and special effects. Call us at 479-677-2235 for more information or Email Terra. |
The Business Standard Plan provides you with the Terra Content Management System (Terra CMS). We use photos you provide to develop a customized logo area that will appear at the top of all your web pages, providing a professional and consistent appearance. The Terra CMS gives you 17 web pages including home, about us, contact us, gallery, FAQs, links, five information pages, and five list pages. The pages all use a popular layout and allow you considerable flexibility. We set up the structure of the web site for you and you fill in the content, including text and photos. We provide free ongoing personal assistance, though most people are on their own quickly. The Business Standard Plan uses the Solar II green web hosting plan. Please take a look at several web sites using the Terra CMS to see what your own web site can look like: Java House Quilts, Fabrics of the Grand Bazaar, Bits & Pieces, Kathryn Greenwold.
The E-Commerce Special gives you the Business Standard Plan including Terra CMS plus the Terra Shopping Cart. Like the Terra CMS the Terra shopping cart is easy to maintain. There are several different options to choose from for processing credit cards. The shopping cart displays well over 1000 products with no per product charge to you. All product information is stored in a database. You can include up to three sizes of photos for each product. Multiple photos for one product is also an option. The E-Commerce Special requires the Solar II Web Hosting Plan.
We provide custom web design for businesses that have unique needs. Normally we'll use the Terra CMS as the basis for your custom web site so that you'll be able to easily manage the web site yourself. We will design a completely unique layout for you, usually using your photos and other graphic materials (though we can move to stock photos when useful). Please take a look at several of the custom sites in our portfolio to see possibilities for your own web site: Helen Squire, Sew Unique, Calico Junction, The Quilting Patch, Terrell Designs, Alice Wilhoit Designs, Thimbles 'N Quilts.

Our web design office is powered by solar panels located on the roof. We've been all solar since beginning our business in 2003. We use energy efficient equipment. Our computers are Lenovo Energy Star laptops that run on DC electricity. Our printer is an HP Energy Star ink jet. With an all solar-powered office, energy conservation is a way of life, not an afterthought! Green web design is the only kind of web design we've ever done. With a Terra built and hosted web site your web site will use green web design and green web hosting, a fact that will be a big plus to many of your own customers.
