SSL Certificate:
This Certificate, A Secure Sockets Layer
(encryption) costs about $30.00 and is
given to web sites so information sent over the
internet is encrypted. This site has one

contact us, that information is encrypted so no
one but myself sees that information. This
is to help protect your customer's personal
information from getting into the wrong hands. Installing a Secure SSL
Certificate will allow you to secure online
business and build customer confidence by
securing all online transactions with up to a
256 bit encryption.

Template
Site vs. Custom Web Site: I've
found that template sites that you build
yourself take a month or longer to learn, IF
you're just starting out and don't know a
lot about building a web site. Been
there, done that. Besides in the long
run, they cost more for hosting.
After having my "template" site up and
running for it's first year, I learned
Google considers it a duplicate site since
someone else has that same "look and feel",
therefore, Google puts you low on their
rankings, something that's obviously not
very good when you want people searching for
your site, you don't want to be at the
bottom of the pile. Therefore, custom
sites work best all around.
