The Process
Brain Storming
The most critical step in the web design process is creating an accurate project definition. The same way that a Painter starts with an initial sketch, or an Architect with his/her blueprints, a project definition is necessary if one is to envision the entire scope with any accuracy. As such, the client survey (Discovery Phase) is used to gather the information needed to get the project moving in the right direction.
Planning
When starting a project, planning is a key phase and often overlooked by many web design agencies and businesses alike. Since the website is not for you but your potential customers, the first thing I look at is your target audience. From research and competitor analysis I will work out the most valuable content and create an exceptional UI for your website which is built for a superior User Experience. With tight involvement from you every step of the way, I’ll develop your project!
Development
The future of the web is mobile. So it’s important that your web endeavors not only consider mobile viewing, but that they actually take a mobile first approach that is responsive to whatever device your audience is viewing your site. I optimise every bit of code and script to create a speedy, slick website. I go beyond the window dressing to ensure that we have tapped into the core of what will not only capture attention, but it’s also crafted and structured properly to effectively inform, inspire and convert.
Launch
Once tested across different operating systems and browsers, I’ll integrate it into a Content Management System. I’ve worked with lots of different frameworks and open source software such as Magento and WordPress so we’ll agree what solution is best for your needs. Did I mention my Search Engine Optimisation and Social Media expertise also means that I can help your website get highly ranked in Google and shared across the abundance of social media platforms in existence.
