Our Process for Delivering Great Websites & Apps

Building Your Site

Development

Once the specification and visual design are complete, we can begin development. Our experienced team leverages the knowledge that comes from building hundreds of sites to create yours efficiently and with high quality. Specific aspects of the development include:

  • Creating page templates to implement the visual design
  • Configuring the database for the required information architecture
  • Writing JavaScript code as needed for interactive elements
  • Building all of the site's pages
  • Customizing the admin experience for easy content entry

Content

If there is an existing site that is being replaced, we can transfer all content from that site. Depending on the size of the site and whether database exports are available, we can do this using cut-and-paste, by importing files that are exported from the existing site's database, or by building a "spider" that crawls through the existing site and extracts all of its content.

For new sites, we can take content as Word or text files, and images in any format. If there are large amounts of structured content, such as product or event lists, we can import that content from spreadsheet files.

Testing and QA

Once the site is completed, we test on many different browsers (currently IE9, IE10, IE11, and recent versions of Safari, Firefox, and Chrome), as well as on several models of iPhones, Android phones, iPads, and Android tablets.
