What Does Web Design Mean?
Anybody can set up a website. We build strategic, engaging experiences that reinforce credibility, communicate key messages, and turn prospects into profits.
Web design is a Web development process for creating a website that focuses on aesthetic factors like layout, user interface and other visual imagery in order to make the website more visually appealing and easy to use. Web design makes use of various programs and tools in order to achieve the intended look, such as Dreamweaver, Photoshop and many others. In order to create a winning design, Web designers need to think about their audience, the purpose of the website and the visual appeal of the design.
Our Approach
Our six step process ensures that both us and our clients are on the same page, every step of the way.
The web development project with a wireframe designs starts with an information exchange.
Once we feel we have a solid understanding of your goals, requirements, and vision, we will present you with our proposal so you know exactly what we’re going to build for the price we’re proposing.
Once we agree on the work to be done and the price, we have you sign our contract ask for a 50% deposit and we get to work … in the end, it’s our goal to produce a web site that produces for you. We install Google Analytics on every site we build and give you access to the reports so that we can watch your site’s performance over time.
1. Development of the Site Outline
The site outline is a simple outline defining all major sections of the site, pages within those sections and descriptions of what data will display on given pages. It describes the organizational structure of the site and allows our team to build the template structure to support the site.
2. Development of the Data Chart
The data chart describes all the fields that will be present in the forms that uses for content management. The data chart provides the information necessary for our team to program the back-end functionality of the website.
3. Development of Wireframes
Wireframes are hand drawn illustrations of where the individual components of the site pages will be positioned. The navigational elements, header and footer, layout of individual pages and so forth will be illustrated for review. Wireframes enable our team to develop a working prototype.
4. A Working Prototype
We will develop a working prototype of the site prior to developing the graphic skin. A working prototype is an actual working copy of the website stripped to it’s basic elements. You’ll be able to click through the site, examine how the site’s content displays and experience the functionality of the site.
5. Development and Application of Graphic Skin
Once the prototype works as desired, we will present graphic appearances for the site. We’ll present these one at a time and will make adjustments based on feedback from you. Once the graphic appearance has been approved, we’ll apply the appearance to the prototype.
6. Site Launch and Post Launch
After the graphic appearance has been applied to the site and your client is satisfied that the new site is ready for launch, we’ll make the site live and build redirects for any site URLs that have changed. This will insure that any past visitors that bookmarked pages will still have access to those pages and will also allow existing links in Google to still work. These redirects will also allow any previous SEO efforts to transfer to the new site. Once the site development is complete, we’ll manage the launch and will build redirects for any URLs which may have changed during the development process.
