Website Design
Breakdown
Website Design Phase
On receiving your deposit, we will start to arrange the registration of your domain name as well as your hosting requirements. We would then work out the layout of the site with you, with regards to what navigation links you would require (such as home, about us, services, etc) and you would supply all text and/or product information to be included on your site. In addition, we would require you to supply material such as company logo and photos to be used. Once the basic layout has been agreed upon, we would decide on a colour scheme, preference as to colours, style, etc, and how you would like for your site, before we begin with the design. This minimizes the possibility of constant changes and possible extra costs for you.
Deciding on your Website Layout and Designing your Homepage
To start off the design process, we will design your homepage first. This should take approximately 5 working days. Your homepage will have the complete design including your navigation elements, logo's, etc. This page will then be loaded onto our domain for your viewing. After you have confirmed the layout and navigation, we would make any changes that are required to the design, so that we can achieve your desired look. Once the final look has been achieved, we would create the remaining pages for your website. These files would then be loaded onto our domain for your viewing.
CSS Stylesheet
CSS Stylesheets are used to define font faces, styles, sizes and colors for consistency throughout the site. Using CSS Stylesheets will increase the download speed of your site and with less code clutter on the page, the pages will be easier to read and index for search engines.
Search Engine Readiness Check
Meta Tags, Page Titles, Page Heading, Alt Image Tags, Link Text and Page Body Text evaluation and adjustment will be made where needed throughout the website. At no time can we guarantee when or where the search engines will place your website within their search results or directory.
Grammar & Spell Check
Before the website is launched, a grammar and spell check is performed to ensure there are no mistakes.
Launch Phase
Final payment will be required before making your website live on your domain. There will be a 1 week period were we would iron out any problems and make minor changes to your site.
Changes
Once your website is live, any major revision requests will require additional discussion and possibly incur additional costs.
