It is surprising how many great looking websites, upon closer inspection, fail to deliver. The most common failure is poor performance at search engines. Many, however, fail in other areas: Failure to convey the right message; difficult to understand; browser errors.
Our website redesign service addresses the design of a website from a holistic perspective. Our priority is to redesign a website so that it becomes a "means to an end" (which usually means an increase in the bottom line) not simply something that looks good. When we design a website our aim is to create something that is easy to understand and navigate, and provides content to suit the user. We avoid "technology for technologies sake", where we do use the latest technology we believe in designing alternative pages so that users who are "behind the times" don't miss out! *All copies must be supplied in either .txt or .doc format. Pictures and Art work must be supplied at 250dpi or larger in gif, jpg, tiff, png or eps format. What You Receive Evaluation of the current design of your website. Identification of current web-related needs that are not being met. Custom redesign solution combining graphical layout and design, navigation structure, and enhanced functionality
How to get started Get a few people together to go over this list and have someone write everything down.
The information you gather will be essential to the designer of your new website. 1. Evaluate the purpose of your website.
What does it need to communicate to visitors? What does it need to gather from visitors? If your website will be a store front that offers a variety of products. How will your products be organized? Prioritize these things and write them down. 2. What are your competitors doing?
A lot of great ideas can be developed by visiting competitive websites. Remember, you don't have to reinvent the wheel to build a bicycle. Also, be sure to write down some of the keywords they are using to drive search engine traffic. 3. Determine your website's style.
What will be the color scheme? Will it be funny? Professional? Technical?
Do I still need to mention you should write these things down? 4. Content or message.
This is the reason people are at your site. It should be clear, easy to find and encourage people to take action
(buy, submit information, etc.) It should also utilize your important keywords. 5. Navigation.
Can visitors find what they want quickly? A page within your website should NEVER be more than 2 clicks away.
If the structure of your website has any pages 2 clicks deep, you should add a site map to ensure your content is
being seen. 6. Contact & About the company information.
People like to know who they're dealing with. If you publish biographies of key people in your organization, you develope interest & TRUST (capitalized for a reason folks.) 7. Keep up to date.
When visitors come to your site, do they see the content equivalence to dust & cob webs? No one like old content.
Old content is history, not news! Stay in the now & your website will too. 8. Organize your content for your designer.
Prepare a seperate .txt or .doc file for each page's content, including the most important links & cross links. For your main page, use those keywords. Use a seperate .txt or .doc file to list any forms you need for your website. The more organized your content is, the better your website will be and the faster it will be published. Contact Us:
