Question by csmoll: Who owns a domain name if a designer stops working on the website?
We asked a designer to build our website, and he acquired domain names for it. He was since relieved of his duties, but the domains are registered in his name. We’ve since launched the business and he is refusing to turn over the domains to us. What are our options, aside from the costly WIPO/NAF procedures? Can we sue in small claims? We are in Wisconsin.

Sorry, he owns the names. You can buy them from him.

Question by romanticman: Will a Search Engine Optimization Specialist upload pages or do I pay my web designer to do it?
If I hire and SEO to tell me how my pages should change to rank higher, will he/she actually create those pages and then upload them or do they just make recommendations and then I have to have my web designer make the changes and upload the pages?

no a SEO only optimizes your pages to get higher rank. you have to pay the web designer to make the webpages, then the SEO will add extra coding that will compatibalize your webpage with serach engines in order to rank higher

Question by kittymeow: What would be a good website host for a freelance graphic designer?
I’m a graphic design student and I’m about to start up my freelance business. I just need to find a good website host (preferably one that comes with free domain setup) to host my business website. I would like it to let me place my own graphics and flash pieces. In other words, I would like to have a lot of creative freedom, but enough template support to help me out a little.

Any suggestions?

P.S. I also need something cheap.
