Logo and Business Name!

My Web Business has been on the backburner for a while, purely because it scares me. But, with the NEIS course less than one week away, I need to get on with it. So, tonight, I decided upon the name I came up with earlier, and created a logo:

Site Flight Web Design

I am very proud of it. I created it with the free illustration software Inkscape.

The most important things I need to do from here include:

  • Register business name
  • Get ABN
  • Storyboard the website
  • Create the web packages/templates
  • Work out pricing
  • Purchase domain and hosting (Servage, as well as being susceptible to hacking, does not offer .com.au domains)
  • Make the website

And that’s not even taking into consideration the actual business side of things. Guh.

    Brilliant! I love the logo and business name! So very clever, on a couple of levels! ;-)

    In case you’re interested, I use flexihostings.net.au for the SOL website – they do offer .com.au domains. My eldest son (computer science graduate) also uses Flexihostings for his sites and is happy with what they offer for his more sophisticated geeky needs (stuff my housewife brain just doesn’t understand , LOL). BTW they’ve just transferred all the domains to a new domain registrar so in future 2 years registration will be $49.00, not the $66.00 they still have shown on their website. They’re always offering specials too so your original package can end up changing and upgrading to something quite different …and better. :-) Customer service/tech help is good too so if you do have any problems or questions, tickets are replied to very promptly.

    Hey, does that site offer domain transfer at all? http://www.mdwebhosting.com.au/ has .com.au domains $22 for 2 years but its hosting is not very good.

    Use http://www.australiacheapdomains.com.au/ for domain registration,
    Web City for hosting small sites on a shared server
    And if you’re looking at hosting the websites that you’re designing for people then set up an Amazon AWS account and purchase a CPanel license.
    Good luck with the business.
