Website Design

Website Design is the process where the colors, fonts, graphics and layout of a webpage or website are established and drawn up into a sort of “mock-up image”, to be coded and constructed into actual functioning web page(s) by web developers.

Web design is one of the fastest growing industries in the web development field, leading many amateurs to believe that they can perform the task of building a site on their own. However, there’s far more to website design than meets the eye. Those who aim to impress their site visitors and attain a high conversion rate (the process of converting those visitors into paying customers) need a working knowledge of the following website design components:

• Industry specific layouts, colors, graphics and fonts
• Current search engine optimization (SEO) techniques and trends
• Relevant content creation, including keywords, links, and video production

 

Additional Web Design Services

Then, there’s more to master: Website design services that take a site to the next level. We’re referring to interactive features that engage the audience to keep them on a website, encourage them to visit it again, and increase the chances of customer conversion. Our Los Angeles web design services include:

• Chat functions
• Virtual tours
• Flash (or HTML5-compliant) animations
• Online video streaming
• Shopping carts

Of course, a business owner can choose which of these services will be of the most benefit to the operation. It’s normal and expected to only incorporate a handful of these features, rather than all of them.

Depending on your needs, these packages include:

• Static or dynamic website design
• SEO friendly construction
• Professional grade video production
• Video streaming
• Interactive features (virtual tours, shopping carts, chat features)
• Social media optimization

It’s true: After determining whether you require a static (HTML) or dynamic (database) site, our Web design experts can incorporate any or all of the above features to make your site as effective as possible. After all, your website should be more than an online placeholder; it should be a powerful marketing tool and a wholistic digital representation of your entire business.

Our Website Design Process

Our process begins with meeting you, the client, to discuss your online business goals and your visual concepts for your online presence. From there, we take your business's information and your graphical ideas and convert them into a group of design proposal "sketches" for you to choose from or re-construct, based on your favorite elements of each proposed sketch. This helps to insure that your site looks and functions exactly as you intend it to look and function.

Next up, we begin integrating unique features and applications into the site, such as embedded videos, contact forms, Flash animations, a blog or even a shopping cart. At this point, we'll also discuss your marketing goals for the website and determine the best methods for utilizing your new website for such a campaign.

Our Web Design Process Flowchart details an approach to Website Development, that focuses on client-directed customizations and the most commonly accepted design protocols and trends throughout all of the internet.

Taking your graphical ideas, your desired features and applications and your advertising strategy all into account, we begin building the site and provide ongoing status updates on the buildout throughout the process. Once the site is built, we run the site through 2 internal layers of quality control (often referred to as "QC") testing, before submitting the site to you for final review.

Once you approve the site, we launch it onto your web-server (or ours; hosting is another service with which we can help) and begin implementation of your long-term marketing campaign.
