If you have never considered a web site for your business, ask yourself how much business you would have without your telephone. For centuries, businesses worked just fine without them, but now it's hard to imagine operating a business without one. At some point, every organization had to make a choice to install a phone line or risk going belly-up. A similar make-or-break point is quickly approaching for businesses without a web site. What debatably is a luxury now will soon become a necessity.

To get us started by using the simplest of terms, the internet can be considered a network of computers around the world sharing information. An individual personal computer that requests the information is called a "client" and the numerous computers that store and dish out the information are called "servers." A web site is simply a collection of related web pages served from a single server. Pages can be "static" (displaying predetermined pictures and text, also known as "content") or "dynamic" (interactive pages that can be changed by the visitor).
