A deep and true understanding of the business and the purpose the website will play is the first and most important step to any successful website. We must also take care in identifying the market and type of content the website will provide to them.

Up next is planning the structure of the website and technologies to be used based on the information gathered. A sitemap will be created and information will be organized to form the best possible solution. Care will be taken in crafting the users journey from entry to the end goal.

Once the plan is written the designer can proceed to preparing the exact look and feel of the website. The design will be based on the plan with the target audience in mind to make sure the website appeals to its users. High Fidelity mockups will be created and shown to the client.

Armed with all the right information and approved prototypes work on making the website “real” can now begin. Developing the website starts at home with the home page then creating the base template for the other pages. Next step is to put in the content and get other goodies working like contact forms or interactive galleries. The client will be able to see the progress every step of the way for his/her valuable feedback.

This is it! At this point the design is now ready to be put through fire. The website will be tested for functionality and cross browser compatibilities as well as simulating different screen resolutions and devices to make sure that the website works well and according to plan. Once the website has been deemed ready for action the website will be uploaded to the web server and final checks will be made.

Congratulations Your Website Is Now Online!
