Website Design & Development
Whether you are looking to redesign an existing site or starting from scratch, you want a website which is functional, easy to use, and represents your company or organization well. Navigating thoughtfully through the process of web design and development – domain name selection, writing pages, organizing the information you want to present, and selecting a design that represents you is important.
Website Template Customization
As a more cost effective option, we can take a Genesis template and customize it to match your brand colors and style. These websites are generally faster to implement and setup.
We have some pre-designed websites that we created specifically for economic and community development organizations. If you’re interested in learning more, please let us know.
Information Architecture
This is the practice of organizing the information and content of your website. Many of our clients come to us wanting a website but aren’t sure how to organize it or how to set up their overall navigation. As we learn about your business or organization, we can help guide you in the direction of placing pages, content, and other components of your website.
Usability
We strive to make all of our websites follow usability best practices, making them easy to navigate and easy for users to find the information that they seek.
Customers won’t spend a lot of time looking for a product or information on your website – there are other businesses out there competing for their business. If they can’t find what they are looking for on your website, it’s easy to go somewhere else.
There are several things you can do to make your site easy to use and improve a visitor’s experience. One of the most important things to improve the usability of your website is to make it easily navigable. One of the first steps to organizing your content is to create an outline. We will work with you through your first draft to make sure that the information is clearly organized and easy for users to find. Your website will be developed with a checklist of usability issues in mind with the goal of creating a user friendly design.
Content Creation
Writing content for the web is a specific skill. Based on the way readers scan websites, the text must be easily scannable. This involves breaking up text with headers, bullets, and making paragraphs short and concise — all while making your content compelling to read. Don’t worry, we can help!
