Below are some links through to examples of what a simple web page can look like and the type of information it can show. Of course we can produce more elaborate sites if this is what you require, but we think that at least to start with, many businesses do not need to go to that expense. All that most need is a relatively straightforward web page to act as an "advert" ( albeit a very impressive one !!) for their business, and of course (but what many people forget or neglect to do) a place to "publish" or highlight their "advert" (www.birmingham101.com)Even a simple page can show most of the information that a visitor will initially need to know, basics like who you are, what you do, and how to get in touch. 

It can link through to other relevant or interesting information on other sites, and if you have e-mail visitors can instantly contact you in writing from where ever they are, whether locally, nationally or internationally for no more than the cost of a local phone call.

High quality photos and images are easily incorporated to show your business / event etc. off to its best.These can be in the form of images / logos that you already have on your computer and which can be saved onto disc or e-mailed to us ( This is how we prefer to do it ), or ordinary photo prints that you can let us have and which we can then scan in to our computers, or if necesary we can take some photos ourselves using a digital camera.

Compare this with any other kind of advert / promotional tool. Compare it in terms of cost, image it projects, potential customer reach, quantity and QUALITY of information it can show, ease, cost and opportunity for comunication with your potential customers, and nothing else even comes close.

The cost of this advert could be recouped many times over simply in savings you might stand to make in redirecting peoples enquiries to your web site to see the infomation they require rather than the considerable expense of having the information printed and sent by post. (It is also instantly available to them) 
A web site is these days seen by many to be just as essential as having some kind of business stationary, whether it be business cards, handouts, or printed letterheads. If you don't have some kind of Internet presence, no doubt many of your competitors do, and as with for example the yellow pages who are you most likely to contact first, the single line advert or the business with the impressive display advert ?? Click on the examples below to see the type of / typical amount of information you could show, and then see below for some of the ways we can further enhance your advert. Then all we need from you is the text of what you want included, details of any pictures or images (or if you want us to take some digital pictures for you ) an idea of the sort of choice of background and text combinations you prefer and we can have you on the web within days at the most. 

E-MAIL  RESPONSE FORM

Click here to see an example of an e-mail response form. You can have various questions / catagories for visitors to fill in when they wish to contact you by e-mail by using a simple form for them to fill in. This is often easier and simpler for them than filling in a blank e-mail and can be sent to any e-mail address you may already have. Very simple to use but very effective

MAP 

You can have a link to a map that shows exactly where you are located. It can be zoomed in and out. Very useful for a lot of people. Click here to see an example of a location map and how it can be used to zoom in and out.

TRANSLATION

Might there ever be an occasion when a visitor to your site would find it easier to see your information translated into one of the main European languages ?. This can be done automatically. Click on the flags below to see this page translated.( You need to wait several seconds after the page says "done" for the translation to appear )

COLOUR SCHEMES / BACKGROUNDS

A huge combination of background colours and text colours are available to suit your personal taste. The above examples are just that, examples only, and as such show only a fraction of what is possible. 

This is an example of a "button" that you could have to highlight and link to your web site /web page from your advert with us. Ideal if you already have a web site or if you want your entry to carry more emphasis. Click on it to see how you are taken to the Birmingham101 homepage, and the click "back" to return here.
