Perspectives

A starter website means different things to different people.  For well-funded startups, a starter site can be a fully-fledged enterprise or eCommerce offering.  But for small businesses starting out, a starter site is one that can give them a presence they own, rather than just a social media page. A difference to the sites we build compared to many other vendors is all of our sites have the capability to expand and change as the company grows.  It's built-in. That means that in a year or two, as the company expands, the site can, too.  You don't need to start over because you've outgrown the architecture on which the site was built.

Coherent Marketing builds simple, starter sites priced at $750.  This includes the hosting, SSL certificate, a firewall to prevent hacking, or to exclude countries with which you'll never do business, available in multiple color combinations to work with your brand, and it can be up and running in as little as 24 hours.

Cash flow can be difficult to predict for a small startup, so we offer two pricing plans - half up front and half when completed - or $65 a month for 10 months.  In instances where a pricing plan has been selected, Coherent Marketing will retain ownership of the domain until the site is paid off.

These starter sites come with a Home page with many features and a contact page. We've even built a demo site to give you an example of what your site might look like.  Also, take a look at our portfolio to give you a sense of some of our work.

As your business expands, we can add additonal menus, more content, and a range of other features to strengthen your marketing and position your business more effectively for better business outcomes. 

If you're interested in a new site or getting a starter site, contact us.  We work with small businesses and non-profits, so lets talk. We will walk you through the entire process so that there are no surprises.

  • Ten years of working with the African Leadership Institute

    In this industry, clients often hire for a project, and when the project is done, that’s the end of the relationship. Projects can last a few weeks or months, and then it’s turned over. It’s seldom that clients develop the trust and a working relationship that lasts a decade, but it’s a milestone that’s been accomplished at Coherent Marketing.

    In 2013, the African Leadership Institute wanted to transition from a web 1.0 site to something that would better reflect the work they did in developing the next generation of world-class African leaders through their flagship programme, the Archbishop Tutu Leadership Fellowship.

  • Falling foul of copyright ambulance chasers


    When selecting a vendor to provide website development or digital communications, make sure that they provide services that prevent your organisation from legal action due to possible copyright infringement. More importantly, your vendor should help your organisation put in place processes to ensure you manage images and music, understand digital rights and licenses, and save the licenses for images you use.  This is true for digital content used on your website or in social media posts.  Choosing a vendor just because they had a really, really low price to produce your website - but expose you to copyright claims - becomes a quick method to discover that you get what you pay for.

    Artificial Intelligence (AI) now makes it easier for copyright trolls to threaten organisations for use of an image they have used online. Here's how to avoid that.

  • Unveiling Joomla: A Journey Through Its Origins and Impact


    As we embark on a journey into the realm of content management systems, one name stands out prominently: Joomla. In this article, we delve into the roots of Joomla, its etymology, and its significance in the digital landscape.
