Choosing a web design company can be a challenge. That’s why we developed a flexible and helpful design process that is simple, clear, and fast. We provide each client with an easy to follow work flow chart that will guide you through the process every step of the way. Each client is assigned one web designer/developer who will be with you through the process from beginning to end.Our clients are important to us and we make every effort to help you with your new or existing project.
Custom Website Design: Each website we design is fully scalable and is custom created specifically for you. We do not use canned templates, nor do we use the same graphics you find on hundreds of other sites. Your website design will scale without distortion across the web in both mobile and standard browser formats and in print. We always supply you with the original Photoshop or Illustrator files.
Color Palettes: Because our web designers and developers are also professional artists, you will see beautiful color palettes that "speak" to your brand. Little changes in hue can make really large differences in print and on the web. Each hue we choose is chosen specifically to subtly communicate your company’s message in a timeless, natural manner that will neither blend in with every other site on the web nor will they be so unnatural that they are aesthetically undesireable. The color palettes we work with are built on timeless natural elements and photographs so they are sure to be stunning and unforgettable. This provides your company with the the perfect leaping off point for print.
Modular development: We code every single website by hand in a modular fashion. This makes it so that you can easily move elements around in your website in the future as needed. Additionally, you can easily add news and content on the fly, which means that you have full moment to moment control of your website which allows you to maximize its effectiveness for no additional cost. The modules we develop are designed for you to easily work with each one – without needing to know any HTML, PHP, or XHTML. In other words, anyone in your organization can easily make changes for you (with your permission, of course!) without any worries of "breaking" your website!
CSS & XHTML
Each site we create uses valid CSS and XHTML. This helps your website on many levels. Fast load times, cross browser compatibility, and easy reading by the search engine spiders are only a few ways this valid CSS and XHTML coding will help your website. It also gives you the ability to meet the unique needs of mobile users as well as diabled people.
Web Standard Compliant: All of our code is created to meet the highest standards – above and beyond the current web standard compliance guidelines. This means that your website isn’t going to break in any browser or on any platform. This is as important for your image as a company as it is for your customers user experience.
Fast Loading Websites: Studies have shown that visitors won’t usually wait more than 4 or 5 seconds for a page to load before they simply leave the website. By using valid CSS and XHTML code and testing on multiple platforms, we ensure that your pages will load quickly and perfectly every time.
Usability
Usability must be considered every step of the development process. Both from an administrator’s perspective for your company and for your website visitors. Usability is a multi-faceted process that incorporates rich design, easy navigation, valid CSS and XHTML, pages that load fast, and a website that can be easily viewed on any device. Not only should your business be able to update your website easily on the fly with changes instantly available across your website and announced to the search engines. But, through your customer’s eyes, the design and navigation should be deeply intuitive no matter how they are viewing the site. Valid CSS & XHTML create pages that will load lightning fast with nearly any connection.
Navigation: The way a customer navigates a website must be carefully considered for optimal experience. If navigation is intuitive, your customers will feel relaxed and at-ease on your website which will increase the usefulness of your website, maxmimizing your sales. How navigation is setup is more than simply where it goes on the page. It involves optimal placement of navigation and optimal order of navigation. That is to say, we work with you to determine which pages are most important and what sort of flow you would like your customers to follow as they traverse your website.
Scalability: One of the most important aspects of developing and designs your website is to ensure that it is highly scalable without needing a redesign at every step of growth. Scalability is one of our top priorities. We want to make sure that your website will easily grow with your company without further expense. Scalability is the entire reason that we do not offer “5-page”, “8-page”, or “10-page” design packages. Your company shouldn’t be limited to a handful of pages for your website. We will build a website for you that will work hard for your company today with only a few pages and 5 years from now when it needs hundreds of pages.
User experience: The fact is, if your customers are happy on your website, they will come back. The worst thing a company can do is alienate their customers with a difficult website. To ensure that your website gives your customers the best user experience, we design your website with valid CSS and XHTML which will ensure that your website looks, feels, and navigates exactly the same in every browser. Additionally, every website we design is 100% mobile browser compatible so that your customers can connect with your company even when they are on the go!
