Our Website Development Process

This page outlines the exciting journey we’ll embark on together to create your brand new website! We utilize a structured approach that ensures open communication and clear milestones throughout the process.

Phase 1: Collaborative Strategy:

This initial phase lays the groundwork for your website’s success. We’ll work closely with you to:

Solidify your website goals:

What are you hoping to achieve with your website? Increased brand awareness? Lead generation? E-commerce sales? Understanding your goals allows us to design a website that effectively meets your needs.

Develop a website strategy:

Based on your goals and target audience, we’ll create a clear strategy that outlines the website’s content, functionality, and user experience (UX).

Craft a wireframe blueprint:

You’ll receive a wireframe that serves as a visual roadmap for your homepage layout and functionality. This allows you to provide feedback and ensure we’re on the same page before moving forward.

Phase 2: Streamlined Backend Setup:

With your approval on the strategy, we’ll handle the technical setup:

Secure and Managed Web Hosting:

We’ll set up your website on a reliable and secure managed WordPress hosting platform. This ensures optimal performance, security updates, and peace of mind.

WordPress Installation and Theme Integration:

We’ll install WordPress, the Content Management System (CMS) that empowers you to easily manage your website’s content. A pre-selected theme will then be implemented, providing a foundation for the website’s design.

Plugin Installation:

To enhance your website’s functionality, we’ll install and configure essential plugins.

Please note: To initiate this phase, we’ll require your participation in setting up hosting with our recommended managed WordPress hosting platform https://sitetorch.com.

Phase 3: Content-Driven Site Buildout:

Here’s where your website comes to life! We’ll design and build individual pages based on the approved strategy and sitemap:`

Content Integration:

We’ll incorporate your text, images, and other content to populate the website pages.

Functionality Setup:

Any specific tools or features needed for your website will be configured and tested.

Important Note: For a smooth buildout process, we kindly request all website content (text, images) to be delivered at the start of this phase. However, if your content isn’t ready yet, don’t worry! We can use placeholder content for the initial build, allowing you to add your final content later.

Phase 4: Successful Website Launch:

It’s launch day! Your website is now live and ready to connect with the world:

Website Launch:

We’ll carefully launch your website, ensuring everything functions flawlessly.

Post-Launch Support:

We’ll continue to monitor your website’s functionality for the following month, providing any necessary adjustments.

Website Management Training:

We’ll provide up to 1 hour of initial training to empower you to manage your website’s tools and content with ease.

To expedite launch, we’ll need your domain name login information. If you haven’t secured a domain name yet, we’re happy to assist you in the process.

Timeline:

Upon receiving a signed contract and down payment, we can confidently follow this proposed timeline:

Phase 1: Web Strategy – Week 1

Phase 2: Backend Setup – Week 2 (URL & Hosting Setup)

Phase 3: Site Buildout – Weeks 3 (Content Due)

Phase 4: Site Launch – Week 4

We’re committed to open communication and transparency throughout the entire process. Feel free to reach out with any questions you may have along the way!
