Web Site Design & Production Overview:
It takes hard work and a strong team effort to bring a concept or an idea to an online reality. We apply a customized and detailed approach to every project. When writing the project plan, definite goals are defined with objectives, milestones, and completion dates. (This is the only way to design a successful web site).
Below are some of the questions you will be asked during our first meeting or conference call.

Evaluate Content:
This is often an area many web developers overlook. The content (text/message) of your site must be clear and concise. If the content is poor; the investment made in professional art work, audio, video, and layout won’t matter.
- How good is the content?
- Is the content practical?
- Should we add audio, flash, video?
- Does the content conform to your objectives and target audience?
Design and Layout:
The layout and navigation of any site is crucial. You must have a navigational system that is intuitive. Some of the most common pitfalls are the following:
- Users getting lost.
- Difficult to make a purchase.
We will provide you with:
- A layout and navigation scheme that best suits the services and products you're offering.
- A layout that is easy to follow.
- A direct and easy path to buy your products/services.
Art Direction:
The artwork used is vital to your success. It defines the identity and image of your business. Good artwork will set you apart from amateurs and novices. The artwork should complement the objectives and goals not become the focal point. Ask yourself the following:
- Is the artwork in harmony with the objectives and goals of the site?
- Should we create a new logo or use one that already exists?
- What is the best color?
Marketing:
85% of all internet users utilize search engines to find the products and services they need. A good search engine plan and strategy is vital to your success.
