Web Design
Successful web sites require several key elements. They must be accessible and easy to use, they must have fast and stable
performance, they should appeal to the audience they are targeted at and, above all, must reflect the business they present.
From simple point of presence (or brochure) information sites to fully featured retail (or e-commerce) sites, it is important
that the web designers should work with the business to ensure that progress is monitored and the designers are guided to match
the requirements of the business.

Our Approach
- Discuss initial plans and ideas for the website design
- Formulate structure of your site (number and type of pages)
- Decide on name of site and appropriate domain name (www.yoursite.com)
- Discuss page content, logo's, images and text
- Identify any extra services needed (shopping cart, guestbook etc.)
- Identify key words to optimise your website for search engines
- Agree on any maintenance packages that are required
- Discuss any further "Site Promotion" needed
- At this point we will give you a quote for the design and build
- On agreement of the quote a 20% deposit is payable
- You send text, logo's, photos, graphics to be used on site
- On receipt of the content and deposit we will produce a draft web site
- Once the draft is complete you will have access to view, comment and request changes.
- Graphics and photos will be optimised for speed and quality.
- Once you have given final approval, the remaining balance of 80% is payable
- On receipt of the balance, the website will be published under it's new domain name
- Any "Site Promotion" agreed will be carried out
- Any agreed Maintenance plans will be valid for 12 months from the publication of the site
