Web Site Design Service
Designing a website for most web designers is only about creating a nice looking website. This is only one element which is actually part of our Visual Identity service. When Web Interactive designs a website we take into consideration search engine friendliness, site navigation and other structural concerns. A well planned website should incorporate future growth of your company and website.
Most designers do not know that the behind the scenes structure of a website effects how a search engine spider sees your website. From the way the html is coded, to naming files and directories, to positioning various elements of the site design.
Creating an effective navigation menu and flow of the site is most important when visitors arrive on the web site. How they move and where they click and how long it takes them to find the information they are looking for is all very important and needs to be planned before a website is designed.
An effective web design inspires people to commit to your products or services. A goal of your website should be to convert visitors to customers. When someone visits your website, it must immediately hit on an emotional level and compel the visitor to act. Timing is essential, as the first impression is made in only a few seconds. Word-of-mouth advertising is often considered the best marketing method because a personal recommendation for products or services almost always turns into a sale. At Web Interactive Consulting, we apply the attributes of word-of-mouth marketing to your web pages, resulting in highly effective web design.
Web Design Process
During the first meeting or phone conversation, we will want to know the major areas of your company and what you want the website to present to the public. We will discuss a logical flow of how a person would learn about your company products or services. All of the main points will be discussed.
Most websites have many features in common, that need to be discussed and figure out ways to present them, such as: trust & satisfaction, presenting a valid & real company, customer service & respecting privacy.
The end results of this process will be menu navigation, a website layout that handles all elements and features the site will incorporate and a custom template (created in Macromedia Dreamweaver) that is the basis of the entire website.
Website Design Pricing
Our web designing service will generally take about 1-3 hours at a rate of $200 per hour. Again, this results in a custom template that is used to create the rest of your website pages.
Creating the rest of the website pages using the template is a quick and easy task, for a nominal fee. However, we suggest our other services used in conjunction with creating web pages such as: Content writing, SEO and Visitor Interaction.
