Website Design Process
We work with you every step of the way to produce a web site that matches your specific needs. All of our websites are designed from scratch based on your requirements and ideas combined with our experience.
Website design process can be split into three main sections pre website design, website design and post website design. We will work with you every step of the way to produce a web site that matches your specific needs. Below is a rough idea of what each step involves.
Pre website design
The pre-website design phase is probably the most important phase of all. Gaining a clear understanding of what you need to achieve before you start trying to achieve it will save time and money in the long term.
Discover the true objectives for your website
- Determine what you want your website to do.
- Gather as much information as possible you may want on your website - text, text and more text and images, etc. Content is the most important factor.
- Research - we do thorough research on your competitors to see what they are doing right or wrong and see what we can do better.
- Decide on right domain name for your website if you need one.
- Decide on color schemes to use on your website.
- Decide on what technologies are needed on your website.
Website Design
Before we go ahead and build a website we design a mock-up of what the end design will look like. This can be done just for the home page but can sometimes be done for pages further into the website if there will be a significant change of style. When you are completely satisfied the mock-up is exactly what you want we go ahead and build the website.
Post website design
Web Hosting
When your website is finished and is exactly the way you want it to be it is time to put it live on the internet. We can take care of all this for you. We will find the best host for your web site needs. We are totally impartial to which company to use, we want you to have the best service and value for money for your website needs.
Website Promotion
Wow! now we have your new all singing dancing website on the internet. Only problem being is nobody will know it is there, this takes us to the next step search website promotion. In the design process we made your website search engine friendly by using search engine optimisation techniques. Now we submit your website to all the major search engines and directories. So when someone searches for your product or service on a search engine you will be found by your potential customers.
Website maintenance
There are many reasons why websites need to be maintained. For example, changes may occur in stock lists, prices, contact details, locations, etc. Different types of websites need different levels of maintenance. We make sure your website stays current. Regular maintenance will encourage visitors to return and search engines to keep you listed. We also keep track of how well your website performs in the search engines and adjust your web pages to improve your rankings accordingly.
