When we build websites, we target two core components – How it works and how it looks. Through a six stage website development process we work with you by listening to what you are looking for and develop the best possible approach to ensure a website that is not only visually good looking, but also intuitive and easy for your customers to use.
Stage 1: Your website design process begins with an initial meeting (this can be via phone, in person or via conference call). We will discuss what you want to achieve from your website, how you want your website to look, any special requirements (like special forms or booking functions), timeframes, and who your target market is.
Stage 2: Once we have the information, we will create a proposal that will demonstrate how we can craft a custom web design that will meet and exceed your objectives.
Stage 3: If you then wish to go ahead, the next stage is gathering content for your website. Having content aids us in the whole process, as we can best determine where it will go, what menu items to include, and generally makes the design process more efficient. Remember, we can write content for your site, or you can provide your own content. Photos and images should be included if you have any to share
Stage 4: Now we will mock-up our first design of your website for you to approve and/or make comments on.
Stage 5: When all is OK with your design, we will move on to the finalisation stage. This is where we make your website work, testing and optimizing.
Stage 6: Go live! Push your site out to the web for search engines to start finding it and get it displayed. To fast track getting found on search engines (as it can take some weeks) we suggest a call to Google and discuss and Adword campaign. With our websites, you will experience better rankings in Google which means more traffic to your website (if you are in a competitive niche we recommend further online marketing such as SEO to increase your rankings further).
