What goes into a successful website?

The merging of experience from 5 different professional roles.

Phase 1: Discovery

Research and evaluation uncovers would-be unknowns about your brand, goals and audience that can later stall or extend your project.

Phase 2: Strategy

Preparing your content, keywords, and sitemap in advance gives you a framework to design and development around.

Phase 3: Design

Combining your brand, strategy and responsive web design with user experience, accessibility, and best practices.

Phase 4: Development

Configuring the back-end of your website. User and browser testing. Speed and search optimization. The whole technical shebang.

Phase 5: Launch

The process of setting up user roles, backup, and security. Professional WordPress training to minimize bad habits, and SEO checklists.

Phase 6: Post-Launch

Maintenance, management, and updates; Internal housekeeping for website health and long-term organization.

Why get a professional website instead of doing it yourself?

Here are 3 reasons to budget for a professional website:
  • You don't know what you don't know. Which means you can make accessibility or SEO mistakes without being aware.
  • Your time is better spent working on other areas of your business.
  • You've grown beyond your own DIY efforts and are ready to work with a professional.
