Having a website is only part of the battle when it comes to establishing an online presence. It is critical that the site not only functions well but also presents itself in a professional manner. It must be visually appealing and inviting to visitors. More importantly, it needs to work effectively to serve its purpose. Our dedicated professional team specializes in providing comprehensive web design and development services tailored to businesses of all sizes, ensuring that each client receives personalized attention.
At Think Ahead Tech, we focus on delivering not just beautiful aesthetics, but also user-friendly layouts that prioritize conveying essential information. This includes creating that all-important first impression for your organization or business, showcasing the services you offer, and marketing the book you just published. We aim to enhance user experience while effectively communicating your brand’s message.
When it comes to web design and development, it’s important to work with a company that knows how to get things done. We have a systematic process that allows us to work with you at your pace, but also creates an atmosphere that empowers you to participate in the process. We’re working together on this project. It’s a collaboration, and not a dictatorship. Please read our web design and development process below to learn more about the steps involved in bringing your website to fruition.
We want to know all about you! Part of our on-boarding process involves completing a discovery questionnaire, telling us about your business and the sites you love, sites you hate and more. Then we’ll schedule a kick off call so we can talk over everything you’ve submitted.
This is where the fun begins! Using the information you provided during our discovery and on-boarding process, Susan will work to create a custom design concept just for you. You’ll get a style guide of color, typography, and device responsiveness provided along with a full-page initial concept of the home page and inside page for your review and input. This is a collaboration, so we want to hear what you think and have your feedback and input during the entire process.
Once you’ve signed off on your design, it’s time to build! We’ll take your completed concept and turn it into a working website. Once completed, we’ll provide you with a private URL for previewing and testing your new site. This gives you the opportunity to test it on all your devices, check that all the links and buttons work, and make sure you like the images and content layout.
A website isn’t truly complete until every single page contains well-prepared and relevant content. We sincerely hope that throughout Phases 1 to 3, you have been diligently crafting and refining your content so that it is ready for this crucial Phase 4. Your customers visit the website for various important reasons, so it’s essential to ensure that you’ve effectively answered all their common questions and provided them with valuable information. Comprehensive and engaging content is absolutely crucial to the success of any website.
Once we have your content in hand, we will take great care in laying it out on each individual page, ensuring that it not only looks visually appealing but is also easy to read and navigate. Your content deserves to shine!
Hooray, the moment you’ve been waiting for has finally arrived—it’s time for launch! This exciting phase means that you have thoroughly tested your website, received all necessary approvals, and are now ready to showcase your site to the world. We will take care of all the critical technical work involved in this process—this includes uploading your site onto your designated server, making it live for everyone to access, ensuring that it is secure and protected, as well as handling any debugging that may be needed. Additionally, we will make sure that search engines like Google are fully aware of your site’s new presence as well.
Your website is launched successfully, but this is just the beginning of our collaboration! We will schedule a comprehensive training call for you, where we will guide you step by step on how to manage and navigate your new website effectively. During this session, we will also address any questions or concerns you may have. Additionally, we will explore the various support options available to ensure you have the resources needed for ongoing assistance. It’s important to remember that your site will require regular care and attention to truly thrive and achieve its full potential.
This is our process for a basic site design and development. If you’ve signed on for any of our other services, such as logo design, SEO, or copywriting, these will be implemented during different phases based on your needs.
