What inspired you to launch your own website?
As a web and graphic design agency, it is absolutely imperative to have an international standard website to display our work to the general public.
When did you launch your first website, and what was it?
My first website was www.markwarman.com, a personal site created in order to further my freelance career.
How did you decide on a name for your website?
My current website, www.eastinnovations.com is simply the 2 parts of our agencies name.
What makes your website different from other, similar offerings?
Currently, we offer everything that a design agency should in regards to a website. However, we have future plans to include a glossary of frequently used industry terms and demo sites for clients to browse through and familiarise themselves with.
What is your eventual goal? (To sell it, keep it for income, secure a book or other mainstream media deal?)
To service more and more client requests automatically through technological advances maintained on the site itself.
How does your investment of time and money balance against your success?
Currently, I'd say it's 50/50.
If you had an unlimited development budget for development, how would you change your site?
As a web and graphic design agency, we do have an unlimited budget as far as time goes and we have the expertise to cover any and all online eventualities.
If your site got really big, really quickly, would you be able to keep up with the demand?
As the website is not a commercial venture in itself, I don't see this as being a problem.
What unexpected costs and headaches have you had to deal with?
The creation of the site itself has been very stressful. Our main focus has been to try to display our work to as high a standard as possible whilst maintaining a degree of separation from our competitors.
What has been your biggest challenge?
Ensuring that the site is compatible across 98% of browsers and screen sizes.
What method has been most successful for promoting your website?
Directory listings have been incredibly productive.
How has running your website differed from your expectations?
Using a content management system has allowed us to change the site content at the drop of a hat.
How long have you run the site already, and how long will you continue to keep it up if you don't enjoy big gains in traffic, income or popularity?
This incarnation of the site is only roughly 2 months old, however, East Innovations has had previous sites up for over 2 years. The site will remain in place until the next update!
