Custom Web Design & Development Services
Hire an experienced web designer and developer
There be dragons, but your website doesn't have to be one of them.
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.
