About the Web Design Process

PROPOSAL

Starting with the Request Quote form, we ascertain the the style and look you want for your site, what features you need, and what e-commerce solution is appropriate for your business, if any.

Shell After reviewing your responses, we determine if we are a good fit to work on your project and ask any follow-up questions we need to clarify your needs and goals. Then we create a proposal and quote for your project, which we send via email. When you are ready to get started, you pay half as a deposit and the other half when the site is finished. Significant changes to the original agreement can incur additional fees, but these are always discussed before they are completed or charged.

MOCKUPS

We provide design "mockups" via email which we revise until you are satisfied with the design. We start with one or two design ideas, and then evolve the design based on your feedback. Often when you see the first mockups you will get more clarity on what you are looking for, and the revision process takes that into account.

If you have an existing brochure or business cards, we can match the style to preserve continuity between your marketing materials. Otherwise, we create a unique design based on your responses about your preferred style and format.

CONSTRUCTION

Once you are happy with the proposed design, we begin to construct your site.

When the first phase of construction is finished, we will send you a link to your site in a staging area where you can look it over, test it, and make sure it works the way you want it to. We incorporate any revisions and changes as we finish constructing the site.

LAUNCH

Once the site is perfect and you are ready to launch, we will upload it to your hosting server for you. We also include six months of free bugfixes, just in case we missed something during testing.
