Our Web Design Process

Our web design process is designed to deliver a website that meets and exceeds your expectations. Here’s how we do it:

1. Initial Consultation and Discovery

We start by getting to know your business, your goals and your audience. This helps us create a clear vision for your website and ensures our design matches your objectives. We’ll talk through your brand identity and what you need on your site.

2. Wireframing and Prototyping

Once we have your requirements we create wireframes and prototypes to give you a visual of how your website will look and work. This is an important step to refine the layout and user experience before we move on to the final design.

3. Design and Development

With your feedback from the wireframes we start the design and development phase. Our designers work on the visual design while our developers ensure the site loads fast, is mobile friendly and built on a solid foundation. Every element from fonts to images is chosen to match your brand.

4. Content and Optimisation

Content is key to engaging visitors and SEO. We can help with creating optimised high quality content that improves the user experience and helps your site rank higher in search results. Whether you need product descriptions, blog posts or an about page that tells your story we’ve got you covered.

5. Testing and Quality Assurance

Before we launch your site we test it thoroughly to ensure everything works as expected. From cross browser testing to fast load times and mobile performance we leave no stone unturned. We also do usability testing to make sure your visitors have a smooth experience.

6. Launch and Ongoing Support

Once testing is complete and you’ve approved the design we handle the launch and ensure everything goes smoothly. We don’t just disappear after the site is live; we offer ongoing support to keep your website up to date, secure and performing well.

7. Custom Content Management Systems (CMS)

Our CMS solutions are designed to be user-friendly, allowing any website owner to easily edit and manage their site without technical knowledge. We also provide ongoing updates and support to ensure the security and optimal performance of your website.
