Designing Websites

It's our goal to consult and find out what you are looking for before we start. There will always be modifications to your site as times and your business change. We are here to work with you, within your timeframe and budget.

Website Design can be very personal, with regard to color, shape, content, navigation and security, amongst other things.

Most of our customers who are building a site from scratch, are not sure what they want. Well, they kind of know what they want, then ideas change. We are candid with advice and usually able to guide and advise ahead of time.

Website design is more than "Print Design", partially due to the instability and limitations of html and PHP. There are some basic rules, which along with our experience and designing skills make for stable, fully functional websites.

The more information we can get from the client the more we can design the site how they want it. Our first meetings usually cover the basics. We can usually do everything over the phone.

These bulleted items cover some of the first design steps we discuss with our clients:

• Type of website.
• Page content and layout.
• CSS, tables or both.
• Map out website directories and pages.
• Purpose of web page
• Colors
• Type of navigation and placement of navigation.
• Server side and client side scripts.
• Market Targets.
• Markup Language.
• Size of screen.
• Interaction, CGI, PHP or Perl.
