Here at XymaSoft we strive to make the process of getting your
website finished as quick as possible. But planning and strategy always
come first. That's where the expertise of XymaSoft comes to your
advantage. Without planning first your website can become a disaster
waiting to happen at the same time wasting your time and hard earned
money. There are several steps XymaSoft goes through while developing
your custom website. Click on each tab below to learn how our
professional custom website design process works.
STEP 1: PLANNING AND STRATEGY
We start the process by having
fill out our comprehensive online custom website design
planner. This custom website design planner gathers
information about your company, services, audience, purpose,
website goals and more. This planner will also give you a full
outlook of how you see your website, and how we find out your
objectives and goals for your custom website project. We will
give you as much time as you need to review the planner and
answer all of the questions asked. We use this information to
help us deliver an accurate quote. This will also help us in
the future if you decide to accept our proposal.
STEP 2: CUSTOM WEBSITE DESIGN PROPOSAL
After you have finished filling
out the custom website design online planner, we will gather
the information and draw up a proposal for your approval.
AGREEMENTS AND DEPOSITS
If our proposal for your custom
website development is accepted, we will require a deposit
depending on the total price of the project. Along with an
invoice, we will send you a contract. The contract will state
the project amount, terms and agreement, and other
miscellaneous items.
DOMAIN NAME REGISTRATION
If you have chosen a domain
name to register for your website, we will register it at this
time.
COLLECTING YOUR MATERIALS
Now is the time to start
collecting your materials for your website. Anything that you
can provide to help us design your website will help. This
includes, but is not limited to ; brochures, business cards,
and photos of your business. If you are selling products, we
will more than likely need photos, product weight, and cost.
The more information and materials with which you provide us,
the quicker your project will be completed and the better the
overall results.
CUSTOM MOCKUP WEBSITES AND SAMPLE
LAYOUTS
XymaSoft will put together some
mockup custom websites and designs for your company to
critique and discuss. If you have requested a logo design,
this usually comes before anything else. At this point we're
trying to narrow down exactly what you are looking for in
terms of website design and layout. Your feedback is essential
in the web design process and is welcome at any time.
WORKING WITH MATERIALS
This step includes resizing
photos, photo optimization, color sampling(for those who want
to match a corporate color to their site design), product
weight & pictures, and similar tasks are all done during this
phase of the web design process.
ESTABLISHING PROJECT DESIGN / LOOK
& FEEL
Based on your feedback from the
mockup website and the information from the planner you filled
out, a design is established and used for your website.
CONTENT
Starting with your home page,
we will start building your website. After this is completed
and approved we will move on and start placing content into
your website.
PROGRAMMING & DATABASES
If you requested any special
things such as contact forms, feedback forms, databases,
reservation systems, etc., we will integrate those parts into
your existing custom website.
CUSTOM WEBSITE COMPLETION AND
DEBUGGING
After you have reviewed
the new custom website, and everything is in correct order, we
will start by reviewing the site ourselves. We will check
the website load time, browser testing, resolution testing and
the overall performance of your site.
YOUR CUSTOM WEBSITE GOES "LIVE"
Your new custom website is
published for the world to see. You can now start advertising
your website, tell all of your friends, business acquaintances
and publish print material with your website address.
SEO: SITE OPTIMIZATION & ONLINE
MARKETING
Your custom website is
optimized so that we can correctly market your website. We
will use the best keywords and descriptions for your site from
your suggestions and your competition. We will then start
submitting your website to search engines and do any other
website promotion services that you requested.
