Dubai is dream land for businesses due to the economic diversity and the easy tax laws it imposes on all the business owners and industrialists who wish to set up businesses in the country. Since Dubai is among the leading nations who are economically stable, therefore, they provide a lucrative chance for all the individuals who have the flair of entrepreneurship to establish their business venture in UAE.

Current market trends in Dubai offers sufficient opportunities for both national and international investors to tap into the Dubai market to not only benefit from the growing number of inhabitants in the country but to also benefit from the increasing tourist traffic of the city. To start your very own venture you need to get acquainted with various facts associated with the way of doing business in Dubai and to avoid any inconveniences that might happen in the process. To educate the entrepreneurs on how can they build a successful business venture in Dubai and run it for profitability, Dubai Monsters, a leading website design agency in Dubai, brings to you these do’s and dont’s of doing business in the UAE region.

Some do’s and dont’s for startups in Dubai

  1.    Select a local website design agency for your online presence

Online presence is important. The shift of users towards the internet for research and transactional purposes have lit-up the need of acquiring a professional website for your business that will also serve as an online representative of you on the internet, always. Not only can a customer be able to grab fetch necessary information from your website but also, they will be able to make online purchases if you have enabled the mechanism on your website. For acquiring a corporate website design, get in touch with a local website design service that not only does professional work but in affordable charges.

  1.    Select a free-zone to fully own your business

Bear in mind that the only way to run a startup successfully in Dubai, without taking a Dubai national acting as your partner is to locate your business in one of the free zones. This idea, however, is not suitable for businesses that are based on public dealing structure, like that of a restaurant or an apparel outlet, etc. also bear in mind that purchase in the free trade zone district can be more than the budget you have set for the purpose.

Here are the advantages that a free trade zone in Dubai offers to business owners:

  • 100% ownership
  • Speedy startup
  • Duty-Free customs boundary.
  1.    Select a location that optimizes suitability and convenience

Another important step in planning a startup in Dubai is to determine the most appropriate location for your business venture. Setting up a profit-based enterprise in the city wouldn’t do you much good despite the growing economy if you’re customers or clients can’t reach you. If you are planning a Free Zone company then you must make the selection based upon the criteria of distance, costs and if it is suitable for your product, business model, and trade requirements.

  1.       Do not finalize a location before physical inspection

Often the published information for a free zone gives a wide choice of offices to the business owners. The actual availability keeps changing. A business startup normally looks for the cheapest option. It is probable that when you physically go for the registration of the company, you may find that only certain office sizes are available. This will throw your budget into dismay. It may be too late to change your free zone then, or it may happen that certain offices allow only 1 visa, that too only for investor and not for the employees. So, do not proceed until all aspects of the office are confirmed.

  1.       Do not open a bank account without confirming the bank charges

Banks levy varying charges. For startups, these can amount to a substantial sum for a bank dependent operation. Always confirm the requirements and charges beforehand. Choosing a bank only on its reputation is a plain negligence any budding business owner could do.

  1.       Do not sign a sponsorship with local sponsor without a written legal agreement

Your business startup may need a lot of financial support, at least in its initial years. A local sponsor may want to charge separately for some services. Do not go ahead with sponsorship until both sides have agreed on what to expect from each other and a written agreement is drawn up and attested in the local court. Do not rely only on verbal understanding.

In the end, I only want to mention that these do’s and dont’s of owning a startup in Dubai are the important ones but do not complete the entire picture of things to avoid when it comes to owning an entrepreneurial venture in UAE. To be sure on every aspect of owning a self-business, agents are there to help you out. Get in touch with one or ask your local website design agency in setting up one for you.

How to Grow Your Online Business in Dubai – UAE https://www.branex.ae/blog/grow-your-online-business-in-dubai/ https://www.branex.ae/blog/grow-your-online-business-in-dubai/#respond Thu, 01 Dec 2016 10:35:09 +0000 https://www.branex.ae/blog/?p=3209 With nearly half the entire globe’s population transitioning to the internet usage by the end of this year, we can surely predict that the internet is...

With nearly half the entire globe’s population transitioning to the internet usage by the end of this year, we can surely predict that the internet is going to provide vast business opportunities to companies around the globe to invest in the UAE market and earn significant returns from it.

Dubai has emerged as a growth packed economic hub and per a recent study carried by the Dubai Media City based Madar Research Group, the growth potential of online businesses in Dubai is likely to hit the max high of 95% in the coming years.

Top Web Developers to help with web designing is only 3 steps away

The trend is being further fueled by the emerging markets and with the growth of social media. The rise of entrepreneurship on a small level, say on social media is leading to the birth of progressing businesses that are bound to become a big chain in the future.

The trend of eCommerce is also no different. New players are setting ablaze the trail for e-tailing. According to the famous Arab Advisors Group, the value of eCommerce transactions is more than $10 Billion a year, approx. In the UAE alone, and with the staggering growth of the broadband and rapid internet services, the number is but to rise in future. For that matter, PayPal is also coming big in the middle eastern countries.

For most customers, the basic reason behind shopping remains same. They want to buy the trendiest of things for them. Whether online or offline, all they want is the best value for the money they are paying to make the purchase. In order to cater to such hi-ambition customers, businesses around the world are contacting eCommerce website design agencies in Dubai to step into the world of eCommerce. Let us see below what are the requirements you need to setup an eCommerce website in the UAE region:

Proper planning and research

Many budding business owners initially face the issue of financing their newborn venture and ways to manage it over time. Ones they are done dealing with such issues they move ahead, but somewhere in the middle they miss out on the appropriate planning and research part and try and jump to the results. for new business ventures planning and research is imperative. Its helps you target your marketing strategies to specific customers to reeve maximum returns on your investment.

Licensing

while time is dedicated to researching the business model and other factors, licensing is often kept aside to be worked upon later, which shouldn’t be the case. A license is a very important part of your business. most business owners understand the importance of licenses in their business’s life and acquire one before setting it up.

Location is important

A location isn’t simply about where you would like to set up an office, shop, or factory but more about licensing jurisdiction. There are a number options available, from onshore, licensed by the Department of Economic Development (DED) in each emirate, to a growing number of free zones, often themed around particular industries or segments. Some licensing authorities allow you to set up as a freelancer or professional services provider. Others will limit your scope of activities so if you plan to expand your services in the future, make sure you are licensed in a zone or authority that allows you to do so.

Free Zones

Free zones can offer a suitable alternative to start-ups within specific sectors. A start-up looking to set up a manufacturing facility and export their products may consider Jebel Ali Free Zone. Other options include Hamriyah and Ras Al Khaimah free zones. Themed free zones such as Dubai internet City, Dubai Media City, or Dubai Design District can help start-ups within those sectors become part of the business community.

Local partner vs local service agent

If you decide to license onshore, everyone will tell you to find a local partner. This is not necessarily the case. Onshore professional licenses are available for activities such as consulting and other services and may be owned 100 per cent by a suitably qualified foreign national, although he or she must appoint a Local Service Agent (LSA). The LSA provides government registration services for a fixed annual fee and has no shareholding or involvement in the business. Such licensing also requires a physical office location.

Final word

It is clear from the above-mentioned facts that Dubai has become the economic hub of the world. A country where other nationals arrive in not only rejoice as tourists but to also earn as business owners. The prosperous opportunity that lies there is eCommerce websites have induced numerous business owners to move their focus towards online buying and selling, and for which they were helped by the industry experts at some of the most well-known website design agencies in Dubai. For online businesses in Dubai, all we can predict is that the coming years will be a bliss.

Mobile. The word literally means a world to each of us now. Ever imagined how difficult it is to even imagine ourselves without our mobile phones. The mere thought of not having it with us, the lack of communication, the internet, entertainment sends us deep into the pit of dark sorrows, and we instantly shake our minds back to reality.

Mobile has become the most important life device for us all, and thus it provided a boom to its complementing businesses. Many companies have moved beyond the simple responsive website design and have started creating interfaces designed to rejoice the brand’s image and maximize online conversions.

Google is a great example of this. Just recently, it launched rich cards and testing a variety of other mobile trends weekly. Let us look at some prevailing mobile trends of today:

Diffused backgrounds

To let the entire look of a mobile website slicker, designers are putting a diffused background behind the user interface. Here, diffused is referring to a techier form of “blur”. The popularity of blurred backgrounds gained pace from a popular social media network, Twitter. Since then the concept gained pace and worked its way into the mobile web space.

Less is enough

Although the modern mobile space provides you the room to experience with different forms of designs, however, many professional website design agencies in Dubai are opting to keep things more towards the simpler side.
The main motivation behind keeping the design simple is that it improves conversions by letting online visitors access the information that they are looking for.

The Bigger the Better

It will come as a surprise to nobody that mobile screen sizes can be very small. That’s why designers are opting for easy-to-read, large fonts.

Simply put: It’s user-hostile if a mobile user has to enlarge the font manually just to read what’s on the screen. It’s also a bad idea to ignore users who might not have perfect vision.

That’s why large, bold fonts are a favorite of modern developers. They offer a better user experience than what some people are seeing on other websites.

Subtle Colors all the way

It was once the case that mobile designers preferred bright, almost noisy colors in their designs. That era has passed.
Now, mobile developers are opting for subtle colors that do little more than provide an accent to the user interface. That way, the screen doesn’t appear too “busy” and users can find what they want easily.

Another trend is emerging along these lines: Mobile designers are using colors consistent with the brand’s image and/or logo. For example, a website designed for a female audience might use pink pastels while an environmental site would opt for subtle shades of green.

And Yet Mobile Is Getting Bigger

Although wearable technology is certainly going to gain traction going forward, there’s another mobile trend that’s moving in the opposite direction. People are opting for bigger screens on their mobile devices.

The emergence of the phablet (a cross between a phone and a tablet) makes it clear that there’s a market for mobile devices with large screens. That’s why designers are ensuring that their responsive development accommodates screens of various sizes.

Final word

The above-mentioned trends are only the few that are held in high regards by professional designers and business owners in the current era. There are a couple of trends more, about which I will write in my future posts. Till then, keep posted and enjoy the latest about a website and design on our blog.

But most of the times the domain name that you are looking for are already taken. Research if this domain name has a website running on it, if not then you can always purchase it from the owner and use it for your benefit, only after paying a price premium i-e.

Choose the right service provider

Opt for a website builder

Some website builders let you build your website visually using a simple drag and drop model for text and images. Website building providers often include website hosting, so you can build and host your website all in one place. You can start by choosing a professionally designed template and then replacing the sample text and images with your own to showcase your business.

Real estate is all about selling in a highly-competitive market. The need for homes and living-spaces is one which may never cease to exist, which makes real estate a sector and sphere that is constantly marketing and selling.

When choosing to buy a residence, or investing in property, realtors acknowledge that quite a lot of emotion and sentiment goes behind such decisions; for many buyers, these sort of stakes run high and only crop up once in a lifetime. Coupled with the huge bite it takes out of savings and salaries, real estate is a business that runs on high stakes and risks. The business is widespread and varied; if buyers are not effectively engaged with the services one business is offering, they can very well turn towards another.

With technology digging its talons deep in the ever-evolving world of business, it is crucial to understand the importance and gain from establishing an online presence. In order to better connect with and engage existing and potential buyers, real estate websites may proffer a variety of content.

So with a business that is so inherently competitive, an online presence simply does not make the cut alone. These websites must be primed and prepped to be Search Engine Optimized. To ensure that theirs is the first website that an engine’s search results offer, these businesses must be careful to produce and format content in ways that appeal to both software engines and humans.

Having established that, here are 3 common SEO mistakes that destroy real estate websites.

 

  1. Overcrowding with keywords

Overcrowding with keywords

Search engines have become increasingly smart, with algorithms constantly being updated and refined. Simply stuffing a website’s content with keywords will no longer be effective; prominent players like Google have honed their search engines to only rank those websites or articles higher which allow for a more natural, human reading.

This means that websites and content producers now have to write for target audiences, as opposed to writing for search engines. This makes the task of producing content slightly more challenging; it has to be a coherent, engaging read, sprinkled with a few keywords that do not make the content appear garbled and confusing.

Picking out appealing, relevant topics and titles and then producing content that is just as refined and engaging – these are the modern-day priorities of any real estate business hoping to get their website search engine optimized.

 

  1. Linking to unsafe external sites

2. Linking to unsafe external sites

This one is quite simple: given that you are trying to attract real potential customers to your website and business, it is best not to give in to click-bait gimmicks and link your site to several unsafe external areas online.

For reasons of gaining greater financial gain, some real estate websites partner with questionable advertisers, who redirect online traffic to harmful and unsafe sites externally. Not only does this not fare well in terms of getting your website optimized by Dubai Web Design Company for any safe search engine, but it also ruins customer loyalty and the chances of people accessing your website in the future.

  1. Not letting a professional handle it

3. Not letting a professional handle it

The right kind of SEO does not come cheap and is not up the alley of any novice. Do not try to place a restrictive budget on a professional, particularly if your business depends entirely on an effective and engaging online presence.

Professional SEO-based writers, such as Branex, understand the updates of search engine algorithms, and how to produce appealing quality content. Hiring a professional should be considered as a mandatory investment to ensure the right kind of traffic is directed towards your website and business.

After the global communication tweaked and made a big space for social media, it is now spread almost everywhere. Evolved into a separate online marketing industry, social media has proved the allegations of being just a get-in-touch medium with friends and family and has shown proven abilities to attract customers and develop incremental profits for businesses, both online and offline.

The world of internet is significantly being impacted after the inclination of businesses took place towards the usage of social media for a business developing medium. Let’s take a closer look at how have social media impacted website designing.

Impact on website design

Almost every business operating today has presence on social media and a very effective way of directing customers to the social media business page is through the business website design. It is due to this reason almost every business website today, has social media icons on them. Once a web visitor clicks on any of these icons, he will be directed to the social media page of the business.

Usage of social media icons to depict the online social presence upon business websites is becoming almost a norm these days, and the strategy works too in increasing the number of online leads a business generates within a given period of time.

Attractive social media page designs

Social media is by far the most interactive marketplace on the internet. The best thing that website design services enable social media pages to get is the access to customized design that allow them to make buzz for their target market effectively.

Social media fan pages can be designed according to the business type and needs. Business owners can also get their social media pages designed on similar lines of their business website design to create synchronization among the two. It can be done for all the famous social media networking sites like Face Book, Twitter and so on. Website design that is backed by the social media page design or vice versa instantly grabs your visitors’ attention because of the design of either pages in his subconscious mind.

Paid ad designs for social media

Social media culture is growing. Not only it is bringing the customer and businesses closer to each other but it’s also providing businesses effective means to reach out to their target market in not so expensive means. I am talking about paid social media advertising. It pinpoints the business’ communication to specific audience and by showing targeted advertisements social media not only gains revenue for itself but also enable businesses to generate a continuous revenue stream for themselves as well.

So, now as we know that how does website design plays its role in social media, it is imperative for businesses operating online to get a social media page design along with their website designs in-sync with each other.  Dubai Monsters is a professional website design agency that also provides services of social media page designs. in order to take a custom, affordable quote for your design project get in touch with them now.

Imagine if I ask you to tell me the names of some of the famous brands that comes to your mind, instantly. You might say Apple, Intel, Honda, Pizza Hut etc. does an image comes to your mind when you are recalling all these names or just their logos. It be right if I say that you it’s the logos that you recalled, isn’t it!

30

For many of us, it is the logos that remain in our minds and that we recall instantly when someone asks for them. A logo is the company’s first identity in front of the customers. a recent study in the Journal of Consumer Research, it had been found out that consumers perceive a company and its products based on the tiniest of its logo elements.
The global learners have done a substantial amount of research on how and why a logo shape influences the thinking process of the common man so much. What most researches have proved that logos that appear incomplete yet attractive can and do grab customers’ attention but fail in building a trust level with the customer. Another interesting fact that the researchers have found about the consumer is that when they see a complex repeatedly, they start liking the brand more than the rest, weird isn’t it!

Provided the number of researches we get to read every other day and the continually evolving methods and procedure, we thought that the overall shape of the logo must also be of some importance to the consumer and that it helps in shaping up the entire brand or website experience. It’s a well-established fact with the logo shapes, that circular shapes are often interpreted as soft and comfy, angular shapes with hard, sturdy things and this pretty much makes sense, at least this is what our professional logo designers believe at Dubai Monsters. These associations were probably formed over time because that’s how we encounter the world. The researchers wanted to know whether they could exploit these strong associations by using the logo as a subtle, subconscious guide in consumers’ minds.

31

It turned out eventually that the outcome doesn’t apply on products only, as it also distorts the overall image and characteristics of the business as well. In another series of experiment the research team interviewed more than 90 people in which the interviewees were asked to view a dozen circular and angular logos and then were given a scenario about a hypothetical air travel company. In the event a passenger was trying to board an air craft with extra luggage. The respondents were asked if the airline will allow the passenger to take his extra luggage along.
The researchers found out that those respondents who were told that the airline has a circular logo thought that it would allow the passenger to carry his extra luggage along, however those who were told that the airline had an angular logo thought completely otherwise. This suggested that only the association with the logo’s shape can create a world of difference in the minds of your prospect customers. if it is fresh in their minds, it will influence their buying behaviors and decisions.

When organizations design their logos, they should be thoughtful about making the logo associations fit with the association they want to create for their brand with their customers. not only the shape of the logo creates an association but also the overall marketing and publicity campaign, the visuals, the communication, the advertisements, everything does. But the core responsibility of the company is to stream line the messaging with the logo and its shape, because this is what signifies the direction of movement of the company itself.

32

Logos are a direct communication medium with the customers. what companies need to worry about is the equilibrium they can create through what they are saying verbally about their products with respect to what they are showing through the shapes in their logo designs. it is also important to bear in mind that logo designing is a complex job that is done best by those who are experienced and pro in it. Not every time a free-lancer or a novice logo artist would be able to create a logo design that is futuristic and long lasting and hold all the important characteristics of being unique and original. To receive a logo design that is created using the appropriate shapes in mind and that guarantees to portray a positive look of your business to the prospects, get in touch with a professional logo design agency in Dubai, right away!

Operating in the website design business brings us in contact with people every other day, many of them raising a clause that website designing and websites themselves have changed dramatically over the passage of time, and we agree to it too. This article will provide a closer look to how have websites changed and evolved with the passage of time and will highlight elements that have actually changed.

A deeper dive

Back in the 1990s, the webpage size was 640 pixels wide. In the early 2000s, it grew to 800 pixels followed by 1024 pixels few years later. But suddenly, the advancement in technology gave life to a new kind of object that is capable of doing communication coupled with entertainment and works as a mini computer all in one; the advent of smart phone. And to our misfortune the size of webpage doesn’t fit the device anymore, therefore technology scientists have to find a way to make things work for them too. The problem was that we never knew what will be the size of the next device that is going to launch in the market. It can be wider that what we have today or can even shrink. The answer came in the form of responsive website designs. a responsive website design has the ability to adjust itself according to the screen size and therefore it has the capability to fit in every smart devices screen size and work without losing any of the design features or the functionalities.

A mouse not for everyone

Initially it was assumed that everyone uses a mouse. Although each of us knew that it’s not totally correct, however, mostly website designs used to completely ignore the fact. Website visitors who use to navigate with the help of keyboard had a real tough time navigating. But since, many people did use a mouse and back in times, designers used to believe that designing for masses is the wittiest thing to do, design agencies created websites that were usable for many people. But then considering the advent of smart devices, websites based on mouse based designs cannot do any good. So, smart website design agencies in Dubai figured out that it is not the masses that they must design for but they must design for usability keeping in view the current situation and the future ahead.

Touch and go

Now keeping in view the speeds of broadband internet that is now available to masses and that load websites in a snap presented a new challenge to the web developers. The challenge of matching the speed. Some studies also proved that due to the high speed internet, people have become hasty and they do not like spending too much time on a website or waiting for it to load completely. They only spend a fraction of minute in waiting, as low as 10 seconds only. If the website doesn’t load in this much time, snap! A prospect is gone to your competitor. Therefore, the use of jQuery and CSS increased and new web development formulations came into market that can reduce your website size to a considerable low, which aids in quick loading and seamless functioning.

Behold the content king

The way we used to design websites earlier was based on logos, imagery and aesthetics. Today it has changed. We are now designing based on the content. Content plays a very important role in digital marketing and publicity of your website along with informing your prospect about you and your product offerings. Advancing search algorithms emphasized on the importance of unique and original content on websites that not only help customers receive appropriate information but also help the search engines rank them better, thus improving online visibility. So we started creating web designs that are not filled with images and colors, but have some white spaces left in them so that the user can focus where he must.

Rise of the API

If you are able to design and develop your own application, you could test the functionality relatively easily before even starting to think about what it will look like on different devices. This requires designers to work with developers to design a feature that at first works only from the command line. If the feature does not work as expected, then you merely have to change the API, rather than also a bunch of visual designs. Once the API works as you want it to, enhancing it for all of the devices and screen sizes that you want to support becomes easier.
Most of the time, you wouldn’t design the entire API of the application that you’re building. Most companies would choose a content management system (CMS) of sorts or a specialized tool to help them achieve what they want to do.
Developers and business people have different goals than designers. Developers want stuff that is easy to develop on. Business people want stuff that’s cheap. But designers want to make the best and most beautiful things possible. These goals can easily conflict.

But it works the other way around, too. If designers are involved in the selection process, they will have a say in the choice of tool and will understand how it works, what’s possible, what’s easy and what’s hard. This will result in designs that are based in part on the tool, not just on imagination. This is an important part of the design process that has not yet been optimized. Right now, the command line and the systems that deliver the content we design for are the domain of the developers, and designers have nothing to do with them. That is a pity. Just as you would want to take advantage of the knowledge of developers in the design process, you would want to take advantage of the knowledge of designers in the development process.

Conclusion

Website designing have always been an odd, border-less medium that has evolved after much trial and error. In the previous years, after the dawn of some really amazing technological wonders, we realized that website designs for today require a totally different handling mechanism as compared to precious times. Sizes have varied greatly, so as the imagery and content and most importantly the way a customer interacts with a website design has turned 360 degrees different.
My advice to budding business owners of this age and to the designers is that in order to tap the right audience at the right time to generate the right amount of business for yourself, we need to work with new defaults. We could clearly see some new starting points that have been setup, yet there is always room for new ones to come and we are looking forward to it.

Are you a startup owner who is struggling to support his business on to its feet successfully and aiming to receive increasing revenues from it then you are at the right place. Today, in this article we are going to tell you some critical ways of assessment, that you need to include in your recruitment process for a website design agency in Dubai.

Let’s talk about bounce rate first. Bounce rate is the unit to measure your lost visitor on your website. Bounce rate is inversely proportional to the pleasure of your online visitor that he/she got on your website. Higher the pleasure, lower the bounce rate and vice versa. According to latest research, a web visitor sticks to one website for a mere 5 seconds time. If your website content and design fails to impress him, due to any reason, you are very likely to lose a lead.

The first impression on a company’s website is therefore paramount in ensuring that a visitor sticks to it and then might perform the action desired by the business owner. Here are a few pointers to take note off while getting your business website design made.

Understand the needs

Before you begin your daunting journey to your best website design that a professional website design service in Dubai will provide you, you need to first assess what are the needs of your customers followed by the needs of your business that you are going to fulfill through your website design.

For example, business owners running an e-commerce business mainly focus on conversion of sales, their ROI and building and maintaining a strong customer base. If you are starting up a new company, your primary focus would be creating brand awareness by providing information about the products or services you will be providing.

Once you come up with attainable goals, you can go ahead and look for a company that best fits your needs. Experts recommend coming up with at least three candidates to interview first instead of hiring the first company you come across.

Hands on local knowledge

The company that you choose for your business website design should not only have the necessary website design skills but also the hands on local and international knowledge of different business industries, as this knowledge will help the designer create pieces that compel the user to take the action you desired. As you contemplate and do research on whom to hire, don’t forget to give a thought on the credible website design services in UAE region because they do hold vital industry experience by having to work with some of the best brands in not only UAE but globally.

Identify a reflective track record

The experience of a good web designer has a bearing on creativity because the needs of business owners keep on varying.

Whether you run a small or a large business, you should always go for a website designer with a relatively high level of experience. The measure of experience does not necessarily translate into the number of years the company has been in business.

You can find new companies coming up with grand ideas and methodologies that you would probably not find in a corporation that has been in the industry for over ten years.

The most important thing is to learn how well the company you are about to hire fathoms your industry.

If it has effectively delivered similar services to other clients in the past, then it is an indication that they have the right experience.

Final word

Finding a viable website design service is similar to the cost and value ratio. A business owner must not have larger than life expectations from his website design service if he is not willing to pay enough for such kind of services. There are services that do claim to be pocket friendly and thoroughly professional, however they too have certain pointers that they tick with the acceptance of every order in accordance to its fee. The smarter idea to get here is to finalize your project deal with a website design studio in Dubai that has provided you enough evidences of its professionalism and its industry exposure along with a pricing structure that suits your needs.
