How Can We Help You?
Many of our clients come to us with websites that fail to serve their business needs. We specialize in re-branding small to large companies online. We can bring a dead brand or website back to live with a fresh, hew, updated website and logo. We have successfully brought many brands online or revitalized existing brands that put a spark back into a once failing company.
Many people fail to see the importance of having a functioning, artistically designed website because they are old school and continue to use old methods for running a business. Take into consideration the explosion of web searches for local businesses in the past few years. Online searches can be expected to continue to skyrocket due to social media like Facebook, Twitter, etc because people who would not normally have had a need for a computer suddenly find themselves online and searching for their favorite brands or places. You need to keep up with the ever changing pace.
Our Process
Our process is set up in stages. We do this so you can easily keep up with you project without halting design or development progress.
Initial Meeting
During our initial meetings, you can expect to get to know us and you can get a pretty clear idea of what we can do for you and how long it will take. This phase is important since we like to be on a face to face level with our clients. We work with you to give you a better position online.
The website planning process consists of organizing all of your ideas, your objectives, and coming up with a development plan and timeline that will fulfill these requirements while remaining within budget.
Planning and Mockup
A website architecture is created along with a estimate, showing you all pages that need to be included in the design. Wireframes are then created, which act as placeholders for various types of content and features. This saves both designer and developer time, by creating a roadmap for the creation of your entire website.Design specifics are planned out such as colors and general aesthetics. Development items such as framework, programming languages, and the type of CMS that will be used are also finalized.
Design and Development
Based on the wireframes created during the planning phase, our designers go to work to create very unique interfaces that not only match your branding, but are also effective in achieving your goals, such as increasing revenue generated by the website. Our website development team is trained to look at websites from not only a design/development perspective, but also from a business perspective, where ROI is the key metric.
Our development team goes to work once designs are finalized for the websites front-end interface. They code the website in HTML/CSS, then depending on the scope of the project, may add a CMS. All development work is done to the latest W3C Standards and using latest technologies when applicable such as HTML5 and CSS.
Deployment
Once we have completed the website, we deploy to your server. We break test the final product using dummy text to ensure we crossed all our t's and dotted all our i's and you site is ready to go live. Once the go live is set, we will help you push the site out and if applicable, show you how to use our custom CMS.
Maintenance and Support
We offer maintenance plans that can fit into any budget. We can help you stay on top of the site to ensure that you are getting the most ROI you are able to. Remember, content is key. Stay on top of your site to prevent Google or Yahoo from classifying your site as stale or abandoned.
