High Quality Dynamic
Ensure a High Quality and Viewer-friendly Web Site
Professional web design and development accomplished by experienced companies will ensure a high quality and viewer-friendly web site. Even a small scale business enterprise can greatly benefit from a successful and well designed web site.
I decided to write this article so that budding entrepreneurs could benefit from my seven years of experience in the internet business.
In this article, I share the secrets of successful web site development and its cost implications as well. I frequently receive queries from clients about a quote from other companies who put a price tag of whopping £2500 for a 5 page brochure website that is actually worth probably not more than about £500.
Choosing a website development package – cost and quality factors
Compare the packages offered by various web site developers so that you may select the one that meets your requirements. You should be well aware as what’s on offer as part of the whole package in terms of development and maintenance services for your web site.
If you are a start-up business then you will be understandably worried about the cost factor. Of course, cost should not be the only criterion. Quality of services is also important.
Basic brochure website usually costs anywhere between £100- £500. The price largely depends on the number of pages and features in terms of programs, designs and applications that you want.
There are companies that will try to sell you a solution worth maybe few thousand pounds, which I bet, will leave you stunned.
Two main types of web sites
Static and dynamic are the two main types of web sites.
Static website
Static website is the most common “simple” website. The word static denotes that what’s coded in is final! Static page can be purchased from EBay for low as £70 or £100 for about five to 10 pages. Although this appears to be a good bargain, ensure that you are getting value for money, and check out what you are drawing out of the money spent!
Dynamic website
On other hand, dynamic website is flexible. By employing a database, you can manage content flows on your own, whether it’s a pure informative site, news site, Blog, E-commerce or a custom employee management system. Dynamic website makes use of database technology, and is more complicated. It takes more efforts and time to develop dynamic website. Obviously, it costs more. However, in the long run, it is easier to manage, saving your money on updates and maintenance.
Design and content are key to a website
A good web design should use easy and neat navigation. An easy to follow navigation of various web links plays a major role in ensuring the stickiness of your web site. By stickiness, I mean how long a visitor explores various web pages on your site.Effective content development strategies driven by the creative minds along with wonderful web page designs add to your site’s appeal, functionality and utility.

Focusrite Octopre Mkii Dynamic $699.99
The Focusrite OctoPre MkII Dynamic is a feature-rich expansion upgrade for any digital audio workstation.

The original ISA mic pre, as featured in the early Focusrite Fort console, is still used by many of the industry’s greatest producers and has contributed to the sound of countless hit records. Today, Focusrite design equipment for a far greater audience, from professionals to amateur enthusiasts, all with varying budgets.As with the Classic ISA mic pre used in both the ISA and Red ranges, the Saffire mic pre found in the OctoPre MkII Dynamic is designed to the highest possible standards. It upholds the same wide bandwidth philosophy featured in the original fort console, back in 1989. As with the Classic ISA mic pre, the Saffire mic pre design features custom components which have undergone an intense testing and qualification process. With the facts and figures in, Focusrite designs then have to pass the essential listening stage. Any design can measure well on the test bench but only a great design can be qualified in the studio. The FET-based Saffire mic pre design is no exception. It delivers clarity without colouration and exhibits the signature transparency for which Focusrite have become famous. With the high channel count interfaces (Saffire PRO 40 and Liquid Saffire 56) and both the OctoPre MkII and OctoPre MkII Dynamic, the Saffire pre-amp has been optimized for drums. The theoretical maximum level of a microphone was calculated, and the mic pre was adjusted with this in mind so as not to clip with this level present, set to minimum gain. As a result, the mic pre won’t clip, even with a high output level mic right up close to a snare drum (the mic input will accept signal levels up to +16dBU from a microphone). Compression The Compressors featured in OctoPre MkII Dynamic are a new VCA-based, feed-forward design, derived from the celebrated Focusrite Red 3. With just a single dial, these eight ‘recording’ compressors allow you to get to the desired amount of compression for each channel
