Website Design - Stage 3
Designing the site

Creating the website itself is the part of the design process where we turn your vision into a reality.

One of the following categories will describes you best:

You know exactly what you want

It may be that you have a clear idea of what you want - you already have the text and images and know exactly how you want it to look, where you want the navigation to appear, which fonts you like, if you'd like , or text links, for example.

If this is the case, our main skills are listening and having the technical knowledge necessary to convert what you want into a website that meets (or exceeds) your expectations. We will ensure that your site works well when viewed on any computer, that it loads quickly and also advise how certain choices will impact on search engine visibility.

If you provide us with a precise specification, we normally still suggest changes that could make the content more suitable for a website format, will make it appear higher with search engines, etc, however you're the client and if you tell us that you want your website a certain way, we'll make it so.

You are looking for input to shape your website

In our initial discussion, we still start from the same point - what you want, however, here, we focus on what you want in terms of the customers you'd like to attract, the products or information you have, what your own focus is, what colour schemes you like, etc.

We then take you through a step by step process. We start by discussing the high level elements - such as the overall shape of your website, the generic look and feel, page titles, navigation options, etc.

We then gradually work our way down to the detail - the content of each page, where images should go and what those images will be ... and numerous other factors that together create a unique, impactful website.

You'd like us to create content for you

At your request, we can work together to create content for your website - in the form of text and/or illustrations.

Martin is a Psychology Graduate (BSc. Hons), creates cryptic crosswords for The Big Issue and has previously worked as a Business Manager in London. He is a wordsmith with a talent for writing text that is well-structured and that grabs your attention and holds it.

Allison is an Arts graduate from Goldsmith University College and her illustrations and paintings have appeared on magazines covers, in board games, various promotional material and websites. If you commission Allison to include illustrations or a logo, then it will be provided in a high-resolution format for printing, as well as a low-resolution (and therefore quicker to upload) format for the internet.
