At Attach2.com Websites our goal is to create a website for you with which you will
be delighted. It is important, therefore, for us to have a clear understanding
of what we need from you and what you need from us. To help us to understand what
you want, we have put together this Planning Worksheet/ Agreement form. Please
review it carefully and be sure that you understand it before you approve it.

The following is what you may expect from us and the charges that you will incur
for this work.
Text
It is expected that your text will be in publishable condition, but if not, we do
have a qualified editor and writer. If your text needs polishing, we will do
that for you at no extra charge, subject, of course, to your final approval.
We expect your text to be in digital format, whether you email it to us or send us
a disk.
Graphics
We believe that every client deserves an Internet presence that reflects its
individuality, so every one of our clients' websites has a unique look and feel.
Our sites include a solid color background, a custom interface on your welcome
page (system of navigation buttons for your site visitors), coordinating masthead
for subsequent pages, and coordinating text separators (horizontals and bullets).
Photographs
If your photos need cropping, color correcting, sharpening, lightening, or other
retouching, we will do this for you at a nominal fee. If your photos are in
good shape we will include them in your website, counting towards the suggested
maximum of ten (10) graphic elements on a page, for no extra cost. (We usually
recommend the use of thumbnail photos (which we will supply) if you have more than
four or five on a page.) Please include a short caption for each photo.

Prices include minor updating over the first six months of the contract. This
covers minor price changes, product changes, swapping one article for another, etc.
It does not include major changes, such as rewriting, seasonal inventory changes, or similar
major revisions, which will be billed at our hourly rate.
Target Date for final payment to be made and your Web Site to be posted: ____ /____ /____
On behalf of my organization I approve the above plan which I have developed with
Attach2.com Websites to construct a website, and I authorize them to use this Website
Planning Worksheet as the basis of the project.

Your Website
Upon delivery of your final payment, you will receive from us publication of your
website on the webhost of your choosing. (You will have contracted this ahead
of time and given us the necessary FTP upload information.) As an option you
can arrange for us to host the site free of charge for the first 12 months.
Domain name registration and Domain name setup fees will apply.
Maintenance
From experience we know that things won’t necessarily be “perfect” right away.
We agree to make revisions as necessary for the first two weeks after your site goes
online, including minor rewrites, rearranging, etc. at no charge to you. In addition,
we will make minor revisions (as described above) to your site for six months from
the Target date at no extra charge. Major changes, such as updating
a newsletter, which would require essentially redoing the webpage, will be subject to billing
at our standard hourly rate.
What we do NOT do.
We are not a web hosting company. While we make webspace available to clients
it is only webspace. If we experience server downtime problems so will you.
We accept neither responsibility for this downtime nor any problems it may cause you
or your business. Due to our contract agreement with our host, and in consideration
for other clients we provide webspace for, we are unable to provide you with FTP access
information to allow you to make changes to your website on your own. Unless you
elect to host through Attach2.com websites for the first 12-months, you must contract for
your own web hosting service. We can suggest a hosting company (the one we use) and
assist you in setting up an account, but we cannot be held responsible for any failings
of theirs. Your contract for hosting will be between you the hosting company.
We are not a Domain name broker. We can help you in selecting an appropriate
Domain name, and we can assist you in obtaining that name, but we are not responsible
in any way for your dealings with the Domain name broker or for the success of your
chosen Domain name.
We will submit your domain information to search engines using a free service we have
access to through our professional associations. This submission is made once a
quarter (four times per year). Broader coverage is available for a fee through
other services. We can assist you in contacting some of these services but will
accept no responsibility for their conduct or make any guarantee as to their
effectiveness. We are not responsible for any damages you incur as a result of
our work on your website.
Please review our Website Contract for more details.
