Development Processes
Definition
Define the scope of the project, from the needs and requirements
of the site and of the target audience, and establish a budget.
The site will be defined by its business objectives, target
audience, personality, key selling points and a call to action.
Ongoing support, management and statistical tracking may also
be required.
Consultancy and Planning
From the clearly outlined definition of the site and its objectives,
and working within a specified budget we can define the aesthetic
and technical requirements of the site. All pages of the site
are defined and how they will link together. The result of
the planning stage is a creative report, technical report
and client checklist for compiling material for the site.
A fixed budget and schedule will also be provided at this
stage.
Design and Conceptualisation
Using the creative report screenshots of central pages of
the site are mocked up to define an overall aesthetic. This
will include concepts for interactive menus and storyboards
for animations. The result of this phase will be a visual
identity and menu for the site.
Development
The site is built using the visual identity and menu concepts
established in the design phase. The site will be built using
the most appropriate technologies and techniques.
Launch
The website is tested on a number of computers with different
specifications, operating systems, configurations and browsers.
On approval of the design the site is launched onto a World
Wide Web server, tested once more and made publicly available.
Maintenance and Promotion
If required we can carry out any future maintenance on the
site and help to promote it on the search engines and other
websites.
