1 Can I choose the design of my site?

Absolutely. WebJuris ensures cutting-edge designs with an expert team that can create your Internet Identity from the ground up. In the event that you already have a site or a logo, WebJuris can build upon the existing designs to create something that complements your overall look online. WebJuris's process is client-centered and includes designs with client feedback during the design process.

2 How do you create the design of a site?

The design is chosen based on the unique qualities of your law firm or organization. For example, one legal organization based out of San Diego featured an ocean motif. [www.alasandiego.org]. WebJuris can work from an existing range of colors and designs of your print products and transfer the look and feel to the Web.

3 What if I don?t like the design you built?

Because our designs are client-focused, we aim for customer satisfaction. In the event you don?t like our design, we will work with you to find something that fits better with your needs. We have many tools to make sure that you are receiving original and elegant graphics and designs on your site.

4 What else should I know about Web site design?

Successful web design integrates the look and feel of the site with functionality. This means that users can easily explore different options on the site that allow them to perform other tasks such as posting comments to a blog, or completing a "contact us" form.

5 How can Web design increase the amount of traffic to my site?

Web design includes proper navigation for site visitors. At WebJuris, each page of a Web site is designed with the user in mind. This translates into more visitors who will find what they are looking for on a particular part of the attorney website. In contrast, sites with poor navigation do not accomplish what they set out to do: engage the reader.

Content Writing FAQs

2. What if I don?t like the content you wrote?
3. Can you post my old content on my Web site?
4. Who writes the content on your site?
5. How many revisions can I make to the content on your site?

1 Why should I hire you to write the content on my Website?

We can do it faster without the day-to-day interruptions that most law firms experience. WebJuris can add to the content writing process as much as they are able to. It's been our experience that law firms are too busy to write their own content, that's why we have an in-house team to do the job. And of course, before your site goes live, we make sure you have thoroughly edited the content.

2 What if I don?t like the content you wrote?

It depends. Generally, once the copy is written, it has minor revisions from the law firm. After the revisions are updated, the content is posted to your site. Because we write the content based on a list of topics created by the client, there's usually not much to revise. If indeed it does need a rewrite, we work with our clients to make sure the content is something everyone agrees on.

3 Can you post my old content on my Web site?

Yes. WebJuris can use the content of your old site and transfer it to a new site. However, WebJuris recommends developing new content on your site to keep it current and fresh. Furthermore, updated information on your site is more likely to increase the rankings of your site on search engine pages. Ongoing updates, such as adding new articles to your site each month, will also increase the relevancy of your website because it gives visitors more reasons to read your site.

4 Who writes the content on your site?

WebJuris has in-house copywriters to write the new versions of your website. First we outline each page, then we complete the writing process. After each page is written, we submit the content for your approval to complete the text of your site.

5 How many revisions can I make to the content on your site?

Although each site varies in scope and size, we perform two rounds of revisions. WebJuris also offers a Content Management System or CMS that allows users, with a password, to make changes to the content of a site. This provides users with the ability to change content without knowing HTML or having advanced computer skills. This can be done from any Web browser at anytime.
