Website development
It takes insight,
a considerable amount of experience as well as statistical-based
savvy to build successful websites. While many offer
such services, few really understand the methodology
of what works and what doesn’t, and why.
The first step to any project we take on is coming
to terms with the problem our client is trying to
solve. We ask specific questions about what the site
requires in terms of functionality, identify project
objectives, concerns and eventual deliverables, and
establish a mutual understanding among preliminary
project team members and our client. From there, we
provide a proposal that details a timetable, our process
and overall project cost.
Insight into how our WEBworks team works
Phase 1 .:. Orientation
It starts with a free consultation wherein we evaluate
the overall scope of the project. We listen to you
and help define clear-cut goals. We address specific
questions about your intended target audience as well
as what the site requires in terms of interaction
and functionality. During which time, we get to know
you, your products, your industry, and ultimately
your clients and their needs. Read

Phase 2 .:. Concept exploratory phase
Following the orientation phase, we begin the development
of ideas—synthesizing what we have learned from
you as well as our own investigations and strategic
analysis—into a proposed solution. We develop
one or more design concepts, taking into account identity,
mood, color palette, graphic design, typographical
treatments and navigation. Read

Phase 3 .:. Technical engineering
Work is divided among a core team of designers and
programmers. Images and ideas are converted to html
and site structure and diagrams become code. Any additional
features such as database development, Flash animation
and other functionality will be integrated at this
stage, including databases and secure socket, credit-card
transactions for online e-commerce. In cases where
a site may require frequent updating, content management
systems are implemented that allow administrators
to input fresh content without prior knowledge of
HTML. Read

Phase 4 .:. Implementation
The final phase involves testing all applications
for cross-platform and browser compatibility. In simple
terms, we make sure your website will work on both
platforms Mac or PC, as well as all prevalent versions
of AOL, Internet Explorer and Netscape. Once testing
is complete, we publish the completed website. We
also provide search engine optimization (SEO) services
for all major search engines, if so required. Read
