Web
Site Goal Analysis |
| |
There
are two reasons people come to us and want a web site:
- They think they need a web site (but are not sure
why).
- They have a specific business goal that they want
to accomplish.
In both cases we sit down with you (or talk with you
over the phone) to establish realistic goals for your
site. Knowing what your goals are, enables us to build
you a site that will meet those goals.
|
| |
|
Formal
Proposal |
| |
Once
we have worked with you to establish your goals, we then
will write a formal proposal to describe precisely what
work we are proposing to do for you. Often we will list
a set of options that you can choose from to enhance your
web site to better meet the established goals.
This proposal will set a fixed price so that you know
exactly what creating your site will cost. Many of the
simple sites that we build will are one of our fixed
price E-Commerce Design Packages.

Customer
Go-Ahead Decision |
| |
Once
you have reviewed the proposal designed to meet your Internet
marketing needs, an initial down payment of 50% is required.
We then schedule the job for site development and completion.
|
| |
|
Development
of Look and Feel |
| |
The
first step we make when developing your site is to establish
the general look and feel of your site. We build a template
(possibly more than one) from which to generate all of
the pages on your. These templates guarantee that all
of the pages on your site will have a consistent look
and navigation structure, both of which are important
to have a successful site. |
| |
|
Dynamic
Content Development |
| |
Once
we have built the basic template(s) for your site, we
then begin to add the scripts that make your site dynamic.
These scripts include:
- Shopping Carts
- Discussion Groups/Forums
- Other custom scripts as needed to meet your goals
We install and test these scripts to verify that they
are all functional with your site.
|
| |
|
Static
Content Insertion |
| |
You
are the final authority on your business, so while we
design an effective web presentation for your company,
we leave the nuts-and-bolts text writing to you. When
you send us this text - as the content of an e-mail or
as a Microsoft Word attachment - we install it into your
site and post the site on the Internet for your review.
|
| |
|
Site
Completion |
| |
When we have completed the work specified in the proposal,
we ask you to review the site and look for any last-minute
changes that you see. We will make the changes, and
once complete, the site is yours!
