Can I accept online payments on my site?

Yes. Clear Vistas recommends using Paypal to accept credit card payments. No need to set up a merchant bank account and all of the secure payment information is handled by Paypal.

How much do you charge?

Web sites vary tremendously in the number of pages and features, so Clear Vistas can’t give you a good price range until you give us a little information about what you want in a web site. Clear Vistas bill most projects on a flat fee basis, payable in 3 increments over the course of the project. Using a flat fee lets you know the cost up front. The project proposal will clearly spell out what services are provided for this fee. Maintenance and other specialty services may be charged on a per hour basis. Contact Us for a free quote.

Can you host my web site?

Clear Vistas does not offer web hosting services. However, Clear Vistas can set up a web hosting account for you. Clear Vistas recommend Lunarpages web hosting and uses them for this site and for other clients. Lunarpages is an an award-winning web hosting company and a great value too. Lunarpages web hosting packages start at $6.95 per month including a free domain name for life. If you prefer a different web hosting company, Clear Vistas can set that up for you as well.
