Process

Website Design Process

1. Initial Consultation & Discovery

We start with a consultation to understand your business, goals, target audience, and design preferences.

This step includes gathering requirements, discussing desired functionality, and identifying competitors or inspiration for your site.

2. Proposal & Agreement

Based on the consultation, I’ll provide a detailed project proposal, including scope, timeline, cost, and deliverables.

Once we agree, I’ll share a formal contract outlining the terms, along with a project deposit to begin work.

3. Research & Planning

I research your industry, target audience, and competitors to ensure the website design aligns with your business objectives.

This step includes creating a site map to define the structure of the website and planning key functionalities.

4. Design Mockups

I create wireframes or mockups that give a visual representation of your website’s layout, design elements, and user experience.

After sharing the designs with you, we’ll go through revisions to ensure it matches your vision.

5. Content Creation

You can provide your own content, or I can assist with copywriting or sourcing high-quality images and graphics for your website.

I also create any custom graphics using Canva to ensure consistency in your brand’s visual identity.

6. Development

Once the design is approved, I proceed with the development phase using WordPress.

I’ll build the website, integrate necessary plugins, and ensure the website is mobile-friendly, optimized for speed, and SEO-ready.

7. SEO & Performance Optimization

I implement on-page SEO, including metadata, alt tags, and optimized content, to improve search engine rankings.

The website will be tested for performance to ensure fast load times and smooth user experiences.

8. Testing & Quality Assurance

I thoroughly test the website across different browsers and devices to check for compatibility and responsiveness.

Any bugs, glitches, or issues will be fixed during this phase to ensure everything works perfectly.

9. Client Review & Final Revisions

I’ll present the fully developed website to you for review.

You’ll have the opportunity to provide feedback and request minor revisions before the site is finalized.

10. Launch

Once you approve the final version, I’ll prepare the website for launch, including domain setup and hosting configuration.

Your website goes live and is accessible to the public.

11. Training & Handover

I provide training on how to manage your website through the WordPress dashboard so you can easily update content, add pages, and make changes.

You’ll also receive any necessary documentation and login credentials.

12. Post-Launch Support

For a specified period after launch, I’ll provide post-launch support, addressing any technical issues or questions you may have.

Ongoing maintenance packages can also be arranged if needed.

FAQs

How long does it take to design and launch a website?
The timeline for designing and launching a website typically ranges from 2 to 6 weeks, depending on the complexity of the project, the number of pages, and the specific features required. I will provide a detailed project timeline once we’ve discussed your needs and project scope.
Can I update the website myself after it’s built?
Yes! I design websites using WordPress, which has an easy-to-use Content Management System (CMS). After the website is launched, I will provide training or documentation so you can confidently update content, add new pages, and manage your site on your own.
Will my website be mobile-friendly?
Absolutely. Every website I design is fully responsive, meaning it will work seamlessly on desktops, tablets, and mobile devices. This ensures a consistent user experience across all devices and boosts your SEO rankings.
