Web Design Process

We have developed a streamlined website design process to provide a stress-free and remarkable experience for the businesses we work alongside.

1 Step 1 - Discovery Call

Before jumping into the design and development of your eCommerce website, we enter a discovery phase that includes a discussion of your business and vision so we can clarify how our expertise will assist in bringing it to life.

Initial discovery calls with business stakeholders help us identify the best strategy for teaming design that is reflective of your brand, with a layout that offers a seamless and engaging user journey.

2 Step 2 - Scope and Quote

Upon reviewing your goals and requirements, we will provide you with a customised quote. During this step, you can clarify and discuss to us any enquiries or concerns that you have regarding the website design proposal. This enables us to adjust the quote so that it aligns with your specific needs. Once the quote has been digitally signed, we will proceed to issue an invoice for a 50% deposit. The remaining 50% will be invoiced upon the successful launch of your website.

3 Step 3 - Sitemap and Content

The project manager will create a sitemap, outlining the key pages and their relationships to each other. This guides the overall navigation structure of your website including how your products and services will be displayed and which ones will show up first. Then, our skilled SEO copywriter, with extensive web writing expertise, crafts compelling content that captures the attention of your target audience.

4 Step 4 - Design and Development

Every eCommerce website we create is entirely custom-made, starting from scratch. Our design approach prioritises the visitor, adhering to good UX practices. Each design is intended to enhance visual appeal, create a seamless and intuitive experience, and boost customer conversion. Whether it's a subtle animation, a striking full-screen image, or strategically placed buttons to drive sales, we ensure that every element contributes to a visually striking and user-friendly website.

5 Step 5 - Pre-Launch

After our QA team tests the web design, your project manager will provide a comprehensive demonstration of the website's flow and responsiveness. During this stage, you can collaborate with your dedicated project manager to request any desired changes. Additionally, you will be granted access to site comments, an effective tool that facilitates direct communication with your website designer or developer, ensuring seamless collaboration and efficient feedback exchange.

6 Step 6 - Search Engine Optimisation (SEO)

Our SEO copywriter will optimise your website to enhance its search engine rankings. In the case of a website redesign, we will implement necessary 301-redirects if you already have existing pages indexed on Google to ensure a smooth transition and preserve your search engine visibility.

7 Step 7 - Training and Launch

The most exciting phase of the website design process - the launch. Once everything has undergone thorough testing and you are completely satisfied with the site, we proceed with its launch. We offer client training and provide a user-friendly 'how-to' portal so you can easily add new content, images, videos, and create engaging landing pages. This ensures your website remains fresh and up-to-date with ease and efficiency.

8 Step 8 - Google Marketing

Once your website is live, we can assist you in expanding your business by driving targeted traffic through various Google online marketing strategies. These include leveraging Google SEO techniques and harnessing the power of Google Ads to maximise your online presence and reach a wider audience.
