The Phases of Custom Website Design

🎨 PHASE 1:  CREATIVE

After discussing the best strategies with your Account Manager for your new project, an initial deposit is made here to begin your project. After some time (roughly 1-2 weeks) from receiving your New Project Form, we meet again to review & approve your creative layout to move forward with your feedback received. Keep in mind that sometimes the start of this process can be expedited if we already have a website concept available for you. After this phase, no additional creative changes can be made without additional costs & time added to complete your project.* Your design balance should be paid in full, and a Layout Approval form (after review) should be signed to move forward to the next stage.

🖥️ PHASE 2:  DESIGN

Once the layout is approved and your setup & design fees are taken care of, our team moves on to the design & development phase, which involves detailed content & coding. Please note that the Design phase is the most time-consuming and detailed part of your project, as we want your final review and website to be excellent. Minor changes can still be made such as trading out same-style images, business hours, some text fields, etc. No major design changes can be made in this phase, as those should have been given in your feedback during the Creative phase.* Your management plan should begin during this phase.

🚀 PHASE 3:  LAUNCH

We prepare to launch your new website with some internal final reviews and basic SEO (search engine optimization). If you don't already have one, we'll help you register a domain name and do some final touches to take your new website live on the internet for all to see!

📊 PHASE 4:  MARKETING

If you have other marketing options selected in your plan, we continue to work on integrating and activating all of your marketing, Connect solution, review & reputation management, social media content, SEO continued work & so on.
