Website Design & Build

From First Contact to Your Go-Live, We’re Here for You

No matter what your requirements we aim to provide an end to end service and will help to guide you through the process of getting your vision up onto the Internet as a finished, visually appealing and intuitively functional website delivering relevant and engaging content to your clients and, just as importantly, potential clients.

Whether you have a fixed concept of your requirements from the outset, some fundamental ideas or a totally blank canvas we will work with you and where necessary offer options and advice to aid in the decision-making process.

The process of website design, build and go-live; Concept to launch, has varying timescales depending on the size of the project and various other factors.

Pre-Design

The first stage will be establishing your required ‘look and feel’, the brief. Ideally, we would meet at your place of business and discuss how your organisation operates so that we can get an insight into exactly the services you offer and what your customers are expecting of you. If your location isn’t within relatively easy travelling distance from Cheltenham, where we’re based, we can meet via Zoom.

At this meeting we will also discuss branding, including the possible colour scheme, you may already have corporate brand guidelines in place that will dictate these. We would also discuss how many pages you require, the page hierarchy as well as any interactive functionality you may need such as forms, downloads, video players etc. Expect us to sketch out a number of rough block page layouts as we work as well as use post-it-notes to order and rearrange the interrelationship between the pages of your new website.

Website Design

This is the next stage is the design process. Using the information gleaned from our initial meeting we will prepare artwork of a few pages, usually the home page and one of two key pages, to verify your website design. This will be delivered to you via email along with an estimated cost and expected delivery date. Obviously at this stage, if you have any questions or changes in the brief that you would like to discuss, we would be pleased to enter into a dialogue and subsequently make a round of adjustments.

The Website Build

As soon as the estimate and visuals are approved and a purchase order has been received the build process can begin. Construction based on your new website design will commence under a development address. At various stages you will be provided with a link that will enable you to see your website evolving.

Testing Your Website Design

Once the build is deemed as being complete in our understanding of the brief you will be asked to fully review the site for content as well as function. Any issues that you may detect can be raised and addressed at this stage.

Go-Live

Once testing of your new website is successfully completed you will be expected to approve and sign off the site. The site will be put live on our hosting platform under the live version of the domain as either a launch of a new site or a replacement for an existing one.
