INTERACTION
We start with each website design for a client by going through an one-on-one interaction with our staff. We get an overview of the company and gain an understanding about the business it does. We then help define the goals with the client. We develop an effective website proposal plan that we use to guide us through the process of developing the client website’s brand and online marketing strategy.
RESEARCH
We never jump into a web site design project for our clients without sufficient research. Without a web designer who conducts this research, problems can easily arise down the track. We begin by researching the industry and business background - building a picture and using our experience of the online market to put together a defined profile to ensure maximum results.
CONCEPTS
We typically deliver a mock-up of the new website 3-5 days after the proposal is signed. After reviewing the design we email to you, we schedule a time a day or two out, where we discuss your thoughts and input. We then take your feedback into account and rework the website mock-up and deliver to you for further review.
ACTION
A website design is nothing without proper coding that works for the major internet browsers and their older versions; Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome to name a few. During this stage we will keep you updated of your website’s progress and its’ milestones.
INTEGRATION
Now for the good part - going live with your brand new website! With your site now coded and tested, we check for cross-browser compatibility of every element of the website. From graphics, text, navigation to flash we check every detail. We then move on to integrating textual and imagery content to publish the completed work. Keep in mind we offer professional copywriting services.
MAINTENANCE
When we finish a website, the relationship does not end there! We provide website maintenance packages for a defined monthly rate or with an “as-needed basis”. Maintenance can involve anything from updates to page re-designs of certain elements of your site. An important stage is the monitoring of site visitors, and finding out whether you are hitting the right level of visitors.
SEO
We code each website project with search engine optimization in mind. We use validated XHTML/CSS and stick to the rules of Search Engine Optimization. This is something we do for each customer, however, search engine optimization is more than just a properly coded website but also involves link building and marketing your website online. We ensure basic SEO rules are adhered to with every project - but we can provide additional search engine optimization services to increase your ranking in competitive markets.
