42 Groundhogs is a company specializing in dynamic, user-manageable web sites.
Sites that do stuff. TM
That means that you can have websites that actually do something, and that you can update them.
You don't need to pay a designer or programmer once a month or once a week just to
have them change a little text on your site.
If you've ever paid someone to update a web site, you've probably also wondered why
it needs to be so difficult. Well, you are not alone. With 42 Groundhogs, you'll be able to
update text on your site whenever you want, from any computer with an Internet connection.
For those of you who want even more control, 42 Groundhogs can give you access to update as
much or as little as you like. From uploading and placing movie files to adding your own email
accounts, it's all possible.
Of course, we will service your requests as well. Our rates for updates to your web site are very
competive.
If you don't want the same site design as a thousand others, you'll want to spring for custom
web design. It costs more, but if you want to stand out it can be well worth the investment.
We also offer sites based on pre-designed templates, which cut down on our time and your cost. The colors,
text, pictures, and more will be unique to you or your business. With so many sites on the Internet and so
many templates available to us, it's likely you won't ever see another site like it, and your customers
or friends will never know the difference. Sites that start out as templates can be highly customized and still
cost less than fully custom design, too.
If custom web design sounds too expensive, feel free to make a call or send an email. It's likely not as
expensive as you have feared. If you would like to save some money, a stock or semi-custom template site
might be just the thing for you.
Are you tired of web sites that just sit there? Have you ever wondered if someone's missing the point of
using a computer to present information? We know just what you mean. A website should be able to do something.
From online catalogs and shopping carts to donation forms, you can have your customers or patrons not just
looking at your offerings but also doing something about it right from their computers.
Forums, chat applications, feedback forms, and similar software keep you in touch with your audience. Rather than
just giving people visiting your site enough information to call you or send an email, you can empower your visitors
to get information from you and to you right through their browser.
Some businesses need custom reports for their shopping cart software, full-blown community sites, or other things not
included in the categories above. That's quite alright, because 42 Groundhogs can deliver custom programs integrated into
an existing site or develop whole dynamic sites from the ground up.
If you want real flexibility for your web site, there is no substitute for dealing with a company that develops software.
Any designer or hosting company can offer you a handful of canned options that do almost what you want. Sometimes they barely
come close. However, at 42 Groundhogs custom web software is a cornerstone of our business. If you want your site to do something
really special, you need to talk to someone who can write the software behind the scenes of your site.
Of course, we can often customize a program that's doing almost what you want and make it do exactly what you want.
That can save a lot of our time and your money. Sometimes, unfortunately, it's just as quick to start from a clean slate as to
customize software that is sloppily written or that was developed in a completely different direction from where you want to take it.
In such a case, you'll get quotes on both options.
