 Concept
Development
In order for the project to proceed quickly and efficiently, we create a password
protected area for your project. This could either be in the client area of our
web site or at your web address.
At this stage, we will develop one or more preliminary concepts for your home
page and some typical web site pages. If the project includes an advertising and
marketing campaign, we will also develop preliminary concepts for these. You will
be able to view the concepts on-line and quickly approve or disapprove them.
If the web site includes a database, we will also develop the basic database
schema and site architecture.
Project Development
After you approve the preliminary concepts, we will begin actually building
the web site. If the project is large, we will create a project site that contains,
the project schedule and milestones as well as an area for the teams members to
collaborate. We believe in an open development process so you will have complete
access to this project site.
Initial Development
During the initial project development phase, we will develop the actual site
architecture. If the project requires content development, we will also develop
and edit the content at this stage.
After the initial development phase, your organization will have the opportunity
and comment and suggest changes. If this is a medium or large web site, we will
perform usability testing and alter the structure based on the result.
Final Development
During the final development phase, the web site structure and content will
be finalized and the site will be completed.
Search Engine Optimization and Analysis
After the site is completed we will perform a search engine analysis using
various tools and expertise at our disposal. The content may be adjusted or "tweaked"
in order to help gain higher search engine rankings.
Quality Assurance Testing
We are dedicated to providing you with a high quality web site design.
 |
We thoroughly test your site for compatibility with Internet Explorer
4, 5, and 6 as well as Netscape 4 and 6. |
|
We test your site's appearance in 256 color mode and True Color
mode (16 million colors). In addition, we test it for compatibility at various
monitor resolutions. |
|
We test your site on both a PCs and Macs. |
|
We check spelling, grammar and for broken links. |
At the end of this step, we provide you with a Quality Assurance Check Sheet.
Project Completion
Now that the site is thoroughly checked, we transfer its content to your final
web address. We now submit your site to the search engines. We have received extremely
good results (top ten and top five rankings) on several of our web site designs.
We accomplish this through a systematic investigation in order to determine the
appropriate target keywords, content and descriptions.
Maintenance
The web is a dynamic medium, depending on your goals, you will most likely
what to keep your web site's content fresh. If you choose to have us maintain
your web site, we can negotiate a maintenance contract with you.
If you choose to maintain it yourself, we can recommend what software tools
you should use. For an additional charge, we can provide training for your employees
for maintaining your web site.
