Website Development Startup Process:

Building a website can be a long task for some. If you have never gone through the process, we hope that this mini-tutorial will help you through the whole thing.

Step 1 - Determing your websites function:
You need to pre-determine what function will your website have. Is this for promoting your services only? Selling products? Being a strong contender?

Step 2 - Find good examples online:
Try and find around 3-5 websites you would like to see emulated for your company or organization. The internet has the largest amount of examples there is. Having a few good examples ready will help the design process. Try and include little notes for each website.

Step 3 - Get the artwork for your logo:
Your logo is VERY important to the development of your website. In fact, we design everything around your logo! We typically don't start designing the "template" for your website before we get your logo.

If you can, get the original artwork of your logo from the company that designed it. If they don't want to give you the original artwork, ask them for a copy.

If you still can't get your logo send us a jpeg or gif and we will notify you whether or not we will have to digitally rework your logo. This may cost an extra $50 to rework the logo.

Again, it is very important that you track down your original artwork.

Step 4 - Plan your website content:
Planning your content is very important. It may take some time for you to write all of your content, sort through it, proofread the content for us to implement on your website.

Keep everything in small, informative paragraphs. You don't want your visitors to hurt their eyes reading your content. Short and sweet, to the point.

Please remember: "Content is king"!

That's right, the most valuable commodity you have online is your content. Take your time, think things out and try not to include too much "advertising pitch". Advertising pitch doesn't work online like it does in print. People want to read informative, thoughtful information about your company, not how you made $1,000 000.00 last year.

Step 5 - Write down your contact information:
Make sure you write down ALL your contact information you want posted on your website. Add driving instructions to your company if you need to. Having your contact information ready will help the process.

Step 6 - Gathering images:
It is very important that you collect any images related to your business that you want implemented within your website. Having all your images beforehand will help us to sort through them faster.
