Web Design
Designing a professional web site involves more than picking
complimentary colors and graphics. While developing an
attention-grabbing appearance is important, so is creating an
environment suitable for your audience, market, and product. It
also involves creating an impressive image that will stay with
your visitors and customers long after they have left your site.
Whether you require an entire site from scratch or need your
existing pages redesigned, I will put into action my design
process which begins by identifying your needs for your
particular project and ends with the launch of your site. No
matter what if your business is brand new or firmly established,
I can generate a professional and appealing site from scratch
that will suit your particular needs.
Steps I will use to create or revamp your site
Market Analysis
In order to create a powerful design and layout, I first engage
in comprehensive market research. Which will give me a very
clear picture of not only your market in general, but who your
competitors are and I will use this very valuable information to
guide all of my design decisions and efforts.
Usability Study
Once I have a clear understanding of your needs for your
particular market, I will at that time establish what should be
integrated in your site and how to simplify the navigation. Your
participation will be essential and will assist me in creating a
high quality site for your business.
Mock Up /Prototype
Now it's time to bring everything together. I will work closely
with you to develop a layout, design appropriate graphics, and
finalize an efficient navigation structure.
Then at that point in time I will create a mock up of the site
which you'll be able to visually view and to get a bird’s eye
view of how the navigational system will be set up. With your
valuable input, I will continue to refine the site until you are
content with the prototype; I do this so that you are kept
informed of my progress and know exactly what the finished
product will look like in advance.
Site Construction
Once approval of the prototype is received from you, I will
begin to turn the mock up site into your authentic real business
web site. This part of the process takes a few days, there are
numerous steps involved some includes designing all the
graphics, buttons, banner, optimizing graphics for web viewing,
coding the pages into different web languages based on your
needs, and testing the site every step of the way for quality
assurance.
Live and Online
Once the site is completed and you have accepted its final form,
it is time to go “live and online.” Now it is at this point your
site will be accessible to all viewers on the Internet.
Site Promotion
Once your site is live and online, it's time to start attracting
visitors. All of my web design projects includes free of charge
submission to major search engines which is an excellent venue
to begin your business marketing efforts. Besides submissions to
search engines there are numerous other steps that can be taken
as well to attract visitors and depending on your market, I will
discuss with you additional marketing ideas that would be most
beneficial to your particular market.
Ongoing Support
Of course once your site is up and ready, I will continue to
provide you support. As long as you have your site, I will be
here to assist you in whatever manner that I can.
