JI Developments
Based in the Charleston, SC area, Just Imagine is a full service website company with a difference: we provide a one-stop-shop of web services for the small business owner. This means both our pricing and our communication style is geared to the little guy.

Our objective is to provide you
with timely, reliable, high quality service at affordable rates.
Site Mentor 5.0 -
Just Imagine,Inc. signed on as the first reseller of True Prism's updated Site Mentor 5.0 content management system (CMS).
JI VP, Mike Pontius, helped develop the early versions of the powerful and flexible
web-based program that allows website owners to manage their own content.
Writing for Websites -
As competition on the web increases, companies large and small are looking for any
edge they can get. Many find that a content revamp - from simple editing to a major
rewrite - performed by a professional web writer, returns a big bang for the buck.
Managing Your Own Content -
It's increasingly common for website owners to make changes and additions to their
websites themselves. And while it seems like an easy decision to make - given the
enhanced importance of the web in the overall marketing mix - it's not as cut and
dried as one might think.
Web Design Tips -
Before you begin the process of selecting a vendor to design or re-design your
website, take a few minutes to familiarize yourself with the dos and don'ts of
successful web design. Remember, there's far more to creating and running a
successful website than pleasing graphics.
Custom Web Programming -
When you need your website to do something very specific and you want to own the
code that makes that happen, custom programming may be the way to go. Just Imagine
has managed many such development efforts - small to very large.
Website Pricing -
The first in a series of blog postings designed to shed light on web pricing issues
and attempt to explain why such great disparities in pricing exist between vendors.
This series will also help you determine what type of vendor you should seek out.

Writing for the Web
I’ve been writing professionally for 35 years - everything from ad copy to video scripts to novels (3 with 1 published). More to the point, I’ve been writing content for websites since 1997. So what makes writing for the web unique?... read more
Bad Economy & Internet Marketing
I’m in the website business so naturally I’m going to tell you that now is a great time to be dumping your marketing dollars online. But I can’t do it. I can’t jump up and down and say that the web is best positioned to extend or maintain your reach with a shrinking budget. In the past, sure… But I’m guessing this is more than a bad economy - by which I mean typical recession... read more
What Does a Website Cost
Here is a summary of a 4 part blog:
- Think your project through from objective through content and longer term service needs (changes, marketing, etc.)
- Call around to web services companies in your area (better to shop local, unless this is your third or fourth generation website) and ask them what size projects they feel most comfortable with. Also review their websites for philosophy, staff size, expertise and portfolio. Ask for references.
- Call references and ask them about the process: how easy or painful it was, how timely were the responses, how close was the firm to delivering on time and, MOST IMPORTANTLY, how responsive has the firm been to problems/changes with the site AFTER being paid in full.
- Get two or 3 quotes, but only after having detailed conversations with the principles. Make sure they are aware that you know what you want and that you are willing to play an active role in order to keep the cost down.
- Compare quotes to make sure apples are apples. Ask questions.
- Choose the firm that gives you the best combination of warm feelings and low cost.
