Web Design Process | How It Works
The process outlined below is the procedure we would follow to create a "brochure" website, either a Content Managed or static website.
Initial Discussions
The first stage of designing your website involves you telling us what you want.
How would you like your site to look? Are there example sites that you can show us that you like the look of? Or sites you don't like? What colours should we use?
How about navigation? Would you like your menu to be along the top? or down the side? Do you need a sub menu? How about dropdown menus?
What are your goals from the site? Do you hope to generate enquiries? Or a quotation? Or perhaps you wish to take orders directly via the site? Or maybe you want your visitors to subscribe to your newsletter or download an eBook?
Draft Design
Following on our initial discussions, we will prepare a couple of mock layouts for you to look at. Based on your feedback on these, we will then prepare the final designs. Most probably this will involve a template for the Home Page and another for the inner pages of the site.
The design will reflect your goals for the website, aiming to encourage your website visitors to do what you want them to do, “converting” them from just visitors to your “prospects” or “customers”.
Database Integration
When you have approved the final design we will proceed to the database integration. This involves programming the “frontend” website templates to talk to the “backend” content management system, taking information directly from the database.
Add content, Test and Go Live
Normally, we will add your content for you. When we have completed this, we will test that everything is working properly and then as soon as you have given the go ahead, make the site live.
