One of my goals is to make your web experience pleasant, easy, affordable, and enjoyable. To ensure that this happens here are some of the professional web site design services that I offer:
PLANNING & DEVELOPMENT
/****************************************
Probably the most important step in creating a successful website, this first stage involves defining the purpose and goals of the site, identifying your key audience, creating an attractive and easy to use navigational structure, and determining the look and feel of the site. At this point, you may also wish to consider your choice of domain name, who your main online competitors may be, your corporate identity, and practical matters such as who provides any photos and text. .
DESIGNING YOUR WEBSITE
/****************************************
The aim is to visually represent the thoughts and ideas discussed in the planning stage using colour, style, web graphics and web layouts. To an extent, what we come up with may depend on a number of factors such as existing printed materials, your corporate logo (if you have one), the first impression you want to give visitors, or simply the feel and style that best suits your personality or your business.
Alternatively, you may have had inspiration from a website you have seen which conveys the kind of style you want.
Once we agree on the design parameters, I will then create a custom template or shell design of the home page which you can review and comment on. If this meets your approval, we can then move on to the next step...
CONSTRUCTING YOUR WEBSITE
/****************************************
The construction phase encompasses the merging of your copy and image content with the approved design template. As work progresses you will be given every opportunity to view your newly-created pages. The first pages to be constructed after the home page are your top-tiered link pages. These are the core pages of your website and the ones most likely to be visited first.
As more and more pages are completed, you can review them to ensure we're heading in the direction you envisaged.All pages are considered temporary until you have given your final stamp of approval. Before "officially" launching the site, I will do a thorough testing of your links and check spelling and load times. Once all the necessary checks have been completed we can then decide where your site is going to live.
HOSTING YOUR WEBSITE
/***************************************
Once you've built your website, it's going to need somewhere to live, so as an added benefit to clients I offer 4 hosting plans.
