Graphic Design Phase

 Project Begins

Upon starting the project I will email you to confirm agreed conditions and price, and possibly provide a list of items which will be needed from you over the course of development.

You will need to let me know the navigation links you would like (such as home, about us, services, etc) and supply all text and/or product information to be included on your site. In addition, you may also supply material such as company logo, personal photos, etc, if desired. 

If you have any guide sites you would like me to refer to when designing your site or if you have any preference as to colors, style, etc please offer that information as well.

For E-Commerce sites that require us to enter products for you, we will need you to supply an Excel spread sheet listing the following: Product Name, Unique Product ID Number (if any), Product Description, Options (if any – size, color, etc), Price, Approximate Weight, Number in Stock, as well as the product photos named in correspondence with the Product ID Number on the spread sheet.

Ideally, all of the above information should be supplied prior to us getting started.

Work will commence on your scheduled start date. I will contact you on that day to confirm that I am getting started.

 Custom Designed Website Concepts

I will provide three possible custom designed home page concepts for your project. In most cases, we will be able to provide these designs within 3-5 business days following your start date.

After you have reviewed the designs and decided which one you would like to use, I will continue to make modifications to the design until the final desired look is achieved. Once the final desired look is achieved, I will create the interior page layout, convert the design to XHTML, add programming, etc.

During this process, you will have the opportunity to review progress. (See next item.)

 In Progress Viewing

I will establish a private directory for your new website on my testing server so that you may view the website development progress at any time. In addition, your project manager will inform you via email when extensive updates to the site have been made so you can review the most recent progress.

 Professional Stock Photography

All projects include use of professional stock photography images from our current library. If a client requires stock photography which we do not currently possess, an additional fee may apply.
