Drupal Website Hosting and Maintenance Services - F.A.Q

Can i change information like email address, phone numbers or detail information on an existing forms ?
Sure you can - and the best part is that you do not have to do it yourself, just send us the information you would like to change and we will take care of the rest.
I have a page with flash presentation and Ajax (javascript plus XML) application.
i would like to replace the flash presentation and change the data with Ajax application - what should i do ?
In case you already obtained the new flash presentation either from us or from deferent developer just send us the swf file and we will replace the old file with the new swf.
The same goes for any javascript you need to replace.
As for the XML file - in most cases there should be no problem for us to change information within the XML file according to your requirements.

Creating a new flash presentation or programming a new java-script code is not included with our drupal hosted web services, you can use our multimedia quote request to get a quote for this new project.

What happens if i need to replace a video file on our site ?
Very simple - you will send us the "raw" file (email or CD/DVD) and we will take care of the rest - resize to the proper size, transcoding to the correct format, watermark it if needed, uploading to the server and test for proper download.
Why would i need a service like drupal hosting web services when i can get a plan with web hosting provider and maintain our company's web site by myself?
Actually if you can answer yes to the following two questions you do not need us.
1. Drupal is very specific CMS (content management system) with a very steep learning curve which means it requires high level of expertise and extended knowledge of the in and outs of the system to become profound drupal developer. can you consider yourself as such?

2. To manage anything including manging and maintaining website (one which is based on drupal or not) demands a large chunk of your most valuable resource - time.
can you spare some quantity of this resource ?

If you answered no to at least one of the previous questions you might consider our drupal hosting web services.

Will i'll be able to control some aspects of our website even though you'll be the "webmaster on charge" ?
As a user of drupal CMS you probably know it is a permission based system, that means that under "user 1" which is the "top user" with control on every aspect of the system, any other user is granted various levels of accuses and permissions by the administrator ("user 1").
When you are heiring us to manage your site under Drupal Hosting Web Services, you will also make us the administrators ("user 1") of your website. this service will virtually eliminate any need from you or your company to "deal" with the maintenance and service of your website - it's all on us.
Nevertheless we as the administrators can and will create special user with permissions upon your requirements - for example to be able to change text or code with in node/s.
or permissions to change content and appearance of existing forms.
Also you'll have a dedicated cPanel (control panel) access to your files on our server.

Please keep in mind that one of the top reasons to hire a webmaster, in this case a drupal developers, is to minimize any risk of lost of data or web site crash due to mismanagement of your company's website by nonprofessional staff. therefore it would be wise to leave it to us to update or make any changes you might want.
