| Plan |
| |
The planning of a website is a
cooperative effort between Digital Designs and you. A good plan results
in an effective website that will accomplish your business and personal
goals. In the planning stage we will work together to determine:
|
| |
- Your website purpose and goals
- Scope of the project
- Maintenance needs
- Interactive features (database, forms, e-commerce)
- Navigation scheme
- Online target audience
- Number of pages
- Graphics, logos, photos
|
| |
The results of the Planning Process will be
the outline or guide for the website design and construction and will
enable us to provide you with an accurate estimate of our services. |
| Design |
|
The website design is the visual representation
of the thoughts and ideas that were established in the planning process.
We will create a layout based on the "look and feel" that appeals
to you. This will include: |
- Color preferences
- An identity or logo
- The impression that best represents your purpose and goals (i.e.,
warm, inviting, high-tech, efficient, etc.)
|
|
A clear understanding of the design parameters will enable Digital
Designs to create a template for the pages of your website. The theme
or design portrayed in the template will be used throughout the site
for continuity and to preserve your unique web presence.
|
| Construct |
| |
The construction of a website is the combining of images and content
with the design of the site. We use web building tools that include:
|
| |
- Macromedia Dreamweaver
- Macromedia Fireworks
- Adobe Photoshop
- Adobe Illustrator
|
| |
Digital Designs offers a complete range of web
technologies and services to insure that your website has an innovative,
creative, and informative presence on the web. We feature: |
- Custom graphics
- Photo scanning
- Skillful content organization
- Effective navigation schemes
- Complete testing of links, spelling, load times, and browser compatibility
- Video technology
- Image maps
- Java scripting
- Forms and CGI coding to process them
|
| Promote |
|
After a site is constructed and placed on the host server, Internet
Search Engines and Directories must be contacted to "let everybody
know that you are now in cyberspace." Pages created by Digital
Designs have been designed to emphasize the keywords relating to your
business. We have also embedded special Meta tags in the code
for easy location by Internet Search Engines and Directories. Digital
Designs will manually submit your site to the major search engines and
"software submit" to others.
|
| Maintain |
|
A good website is continually growing and changing.
Digital Designs provides web maintenance services to keep your site current
and functional. Our web technology expertise is available for an hourly
fee or a monthly maintenance contract....whichever suits your needs. |
