Getting a first website is a big change which can cause a lot of stress. It’s unknown territory.

We suggest you take it in small steps by “putting a toe in the water” with the Bonza Bambino.

The Bambino is a very professional looking, but simple, one page website.

It tells WHO you are, WHERE you are, WHAT you do and HOW to contact you.

It offers 2 significant advantages:

You get your domain name registered. This is just like your registered business name. It’s your name for the internet and has to be renewed every year. This is a domain name: www.bonzawebsites.com
You get professional email. This is a professional email address: anthony@bonzawebsites.com

You own and control your domain name and professional email addresses. If you leave Bonzawebsites, you do not lose them.

You probably have a “free” email address provided by an Internet Service Provider such as Bigpond or Optus. If you leave that company, you lose that email address.

If you get professional email, your old email address will still work. Your contacts will continue to send you emails at that address until you “wean them off it” and onto your professional address.

THIS IS WHAT YOU GET

The maximum characteristics of a Bambino page:

2 scrolled screens on a resolution setting of 800 x 600 pixels. (Resisting pages that scroll down indefinitely is in your best interest from the important point-of-view of page load speed and visitor comfort)
6 images
As many email addresses as you want at $10/email address/year – You can add or delete email addresses any time

YOU CAN HAVE MORE ON YOUR PAGE IF YOU WANT

We do not recommend you stray far from the standard Bambino. Remember: It’s “a toe in the water” at small cost to see if the internet works for you. If it does, you can upgrade later. If it doesn’t, it’s no big loss.

Bonza has done hundreds of Bambinos. Here are some statistics:

10% of clients say it didn’t work and do not renew. No-one complains. Most say they’re glad they resolved, at low cost, the question of whether the internet is worthwhile for their business.
50% of clients are delighted but say they don’t need anything more elaborate and keep their standard Bambino for years.
40% upgrade with confidence. Usually after 2 years.

DOMAIN NAME (www.thisisadomainname.com)

Domain Name Registration is an annual cost.

For domains registered in the Australian registry (.com.au), the cost is $70/year, but you are required to pay 2 years in advance and then reregister for 2 more years every second year. (In our Cost Calculator, we’ll show it as $70/year).

Registering in the International registry (.com) is preferable, but often, your favoured name will be taken but available as a .com.au.

I’d like a .com domain name :
