Frequently Asked Questions
Web design refers to both the information design and the visual design of an Internet website, given the requirements of the person or business having the website designed. The term is also used informally to include the discipline of web development, which is the activity of building or coding the website.
There are many website builders available that allow people without training to create websites. Generally, however, a website will need professional optimization in order to gain visitors and convert them into leads or sales. In many cases this optimization may amount to a full website redesign.
Web hosting refers to the storage of a website’s files and databases on a web server. The web server in turn makes the website’s files and data available to anyone using a web browser on their computer or mobile device. Without web hosting, your website would not be available on the Internet.
Generally, a basic business website can be created in between 6 – 8 weeks. Shorter or longer turnaround times are possible, depending on the complexity of the project.
Search engines are the primary source of traffic to Internet websites. Search engine optimization, or SEO for short, is the activity of improving the rank of a website in web searches that are valuable to the business. Paid or sponsored ads are also available on the results pages of these valuable searches. This channel is referred to as PPC, or pay per click advertising.
Monthly website fees generally cover web hosting and maintenance. Ongoing maintenance is required for every website because the underlying software on both the web server and the website itself is constantly being updated for improved security, performance, and to add new features. If these updates are not performed, the website may be hacked or stop functioning correctly.

Web Design Process
Proposal / Free Quote
Understanding what a business wants and needs are key elements in delivering a meaningful quote.
Discovery
Once the proposal has been accepted, we will begin the discovery phase. This is where we will gather as much information as possible about your business, your customers, and your competitors.
Planning
The website is planned down to the smallest detail and this plan is documented for reference during the following stages of the project.
Information Design
Website information design is the practice of organizing and presenting information on a website in a way that is clear, concise, and easy to understand. It involves understanding the needs of the website’s users, the structure of the information, and the best way to visually communicate that information.
Visual Design
Website visual design is the practice of creating a visually appealing and engaging website that communicates the brand’s message effectively. It involves using elements such as color, typography, imagery, and layout to create a cohesive and user-friendly design.
Production
Once the design is complete, we will move into the production phase. This is where we will create all of the content for your website, including the text, images, and videos.
Integration
The integration phase of the web design project is the process of bringing together the different components of the website, such as the design, the development, and the content. This is where the website is brought to life and made functional.
Testing
The website is painstakingly tested to display and function properly on all modern platforms and devices. Any bugs are corrected prior to launch.
Launch
Once your website has been tested and approved, we will deploy it to the live server. We will also provide you with training on how to manage your website.
Marketing
Once your website is live, we will help you to promote it so that you can start attracting visitors. We will provide you with a marketing plan that includes SEO, social media, and paid advertising.
