Design Process
 
Free Initial Consultation		  
 

The design process is a four step process:

1) Planning and Gathering Information
2) Design Considerations
3) Execution
4) Launch and Maintenance

Throughout it will be a collaboration - you will be able to view the development of your site online and give feedback throughout the process.

 
 

Step 1 - Planning and Gathering Information

Answering the following questions will help make decisions about the content and layout of your site:

  • What is the goal or purpose of your site - information, sales, education, etc.?
  • What information will the site present - products, galleries, classes, bios, etc.?
  • Who is your intended audience?
  • How will you interest viewers in your site? Identify what makes you stand out.
  • What is your budget?
      Basic - Need help with basic site
      Standard - Would like to customize look of basic site and have some functionality.
      Professional - Need functionality such as forms, shopping cart. Would like some flash animation, customized banners, etc.
    From this information I can begin to figure out the best structure and navigation for the content of the site and an estimate of the time involved.
    • Step 2 - Design Considerations
    I will work with your input on the following to develop the look of the site:

    · Layout - Where and how things are placed on each page
    · Navigation bar - position on page, links, colors, attributes
    · Banner - Title, name, and/or logo
    · Images - Good quality, properly sized and compressed images
    · Background - color, texture, and/or pattern
    · Type - font, size, color
    · Interactive Forms - registration, questionnaire, etc.
    · Multimedia - music, video, animations, slideshows
    · Accessability - Not all computers see websites the same way, are able to download all functions or work at the same speed. Your targeted clientele will guide decisions. template idea
