Website Design

Highly engaging and converting website design

Creative Process

We start every project with a meeting (or more if needed) to discuss with you and/or your team, your business goals, thoughts & opinions about your website and how it all fits together.

From there we will begin to work on a design that will fit those needs that are pleasing to the eye and will also guide the user in an intuitive way to the goal(s) of your website.

Here are a few things to think about prior to these meetings:

  • What is the purpose of your website?  What do you need users to do when they get there?
  • Does a logo need to be created or reworked?
  • Do you have a Style Guide?
    • What colors are to be used for the color palette?
    • Do you have some favorite fonts?
    • Do you need pictures taken or do you already have some high quality pictures?
  • What are your core principles? What do you want to convey about you and/or your business?
  • Very professional, extra fun or somewhere in between? How would you describe your business?
  • Who are some of your direct competitors? What makes your business Unique?
  • What are some sites that impress you?  Of competitors who’s site is good?  Good Industry sites?
  • Do you have “dream” features that you’d love to have on your site?

If there were no restrictions at all, what would you like your site to do for you? …for your customer? …for your employees?

Once we have these details, we can begin on the site layout.

We will walk you through step by step, letting you know along the way, all of the steps that will be needed for your site specifically.  When the time comes, we’ll ask you to review the design, often once  or twice near the beginning then again at the end.

After this, we will test, optimize and nail down a “go live” date.  (sometimes the date is set earlier in the process if a marketing compaign in being used to promote the launch)

Then finally LAUNCH DAY!!!
