Information
Collection |
| |
Information Collection begins with researching the
project's background. Based on these findings, we
formulate the project's mission and goals, and take
inventory of available resources. We then evaluate
the target audience and assess their needs. Next,
we look at your competition and identify what they
are doing on the Web. Finally we help determine user
goals and expectations of the site.
|
 |
Strategy |
| |
Strategy involves brainstorming, problem solving,
and asking a lot of questions. How is your situation
unique? What is the best approach? What
is the project's scope? What is the best allocation
of resources? We also begin to organize content and
develop navigation structures, while exploring the
new site's information hierarchy. Eventually these
ideas create a workable solution that fits your goals,
your customer's goals, and your budget.

 |
Prototyping |
| |
During the Prototyping stage we create a rough plan
of how the site will operate. As Website designers, we investigate how users
move through the site, then determine the best use
of color, type, and layout. Next, we construct models,
tear them apart, and construct new models. Eventually
this process leads to a functional design.
|
 |
Structure |
| |
This is when and where the site gets built. Here,
content comes together and the editing begins. This
stage brings the entire site together. The final model
is built, tested, then re-tested to assure a quality
system. Any problems are dealt with quickly.
|
 |
Launch |
| |
This stage involves final testing before the site
goes live. We make sure all of the links work and
each page loads quickly. We ensure stability, consistency,
and compatibility prior to launching the site. Finally,
we submit your site to the major search engines, create
keywords for search robots, and aid with off-line
marketing. We make recommendations for advanced search engine marketing campaigns.
|
 |
Expansion |
| |
Launching a site is simply the first step of your online presence. From the initial launch, we plan for growth. We help you publish, check, update, revise, and reinvent. We begin analyzing your site's statistics and aid with new content development. Fresh content ensures your site stays current, and gives visitors something to talk about. |
