So how exactly are Web pages created? Web programming gives your Web site the ability to interact with people rather than simply serving information.

Quick-2-Market offers complete Web services, specializing in electronic commerce and Web automation. We support a variety of powerful web management programs from shopping carts to web forums. Static web-sites are fast becoming "yesterday's news." Web programming creates interactive sites that cater to your site's visitors. Our programming addresses the goal of "sticky" web sites -- the concept is to give the user what they needs so that they'll stay as long as possible.

Our Web programming runs the gamut from simple, economical fill-in forms to advanced web-site searches to complex custom programming. Whatever your programming needs, our top-notch programmers can provide the solution.

In addition, a site can be developed so that you can administer it yourself. You can update your own pages or online databases instantly via simple-to-use web-page interfaces, saving you money and keeping your web-site fresh. For database programming, Quick-2-Market can use your pre-existing database structure or develop everything from the ground up.

In an era where increasing importance is placed on a web-site being fully interactive, with the emphasis on quickly and easily providing the web-site visitor with the information he requires, programming based upon a true relational database is fast becoming the feature that separates the men from the boys (so to speak) in the online e-commerce world.

Quick-2-Market can customize a program for you, such as the Real Estate Listings database programming, a 5,000 unit housewares shopping cart, or a database-driven student enrollment site.

In each case, the client will have specific needs to be addressed.

Quick-2-Market is able to devise a system to your exact specifications. When you come to us with your custom programming needs, we find a way to adapt our programming to your needs. If you're tired of having Web programmers tell you how you need to adapt to their programming, you might find this attitude a refreshing change.

Fill-In Forms

We have already discussed the power of the Web to deliver information on your products and services to potential consumers. A sometimes-overlooked aspect is the power of the Web to deliver useful information from the public to you. Fill-in forms allow your visitors to easily submit information to you.

This information can be just about anything. Users can subscribe to mailing lists or electronic newsletters, order products online, submit questions to your technical support people, provide feedback about your products or web-site, fill out marketing surveys, and more.

Quick-2-Market's programmers have a number of forms ready to support any of your basic information retrieval needs. They can customize these in a number of ways for your purposes.

Web-Site-Searches

Quick 2 Market's new Search is a search engine designed with the needs of your web-site in mind. Traditional search engines use a "spidering" approach of examining each page in your site over the Internet to create a search database. We use a search database created on the web server computer itself, using tools which examine the local file system rather than the Internet. Our search is fast, because the site has already been searched for every keyword when the database is created; the results are stored in a file on your server.

When a visitor to your site searches, only the results are tabulated and displayed, decreasing the amount of search time required. Our search also has optimizations to make simpler searches faster, so your visitors do not wait any longer than necessary for the results.

The philosophy of our search engine differs from most in that we want your search to be as specific as possible, not as generic as possible. When people search your site, they are going to be looking for specific information, and we want to make that information appear as quickly as possible. Our search engine is designed to work with either your web-site, or a subset of your web-site. Many search engines are not this flexible.

Quick-2-Market's technicians can create subsets of your web-site related to one topic you want to search, and narrow the results to that subset of your web-site. You can have as many of these subsets as you need. When visitors to your site are searching for specific information, they can narrow their search to a subset.

Unlike the free search engines you see, which are subsidized by advertising revenue, our search engine presents the results only (not with frames, ads, links, and other distractions that make it hard to see the results), and can be totally customized to use the look and feel of your site: your logos, color scheme, etc.
