Website Development

The website is the hub of any 21st century company's presence. It is the best way to convey they uniqueness of your brand bringing together customers, partners, employees and management. Therefore, every build project we undergo begins with a customer-centric strategy and design effort. By the time we get here, the key decisions have been made, everyone knows what the final product will cost and when it will be delivered. Among the assets that get us started:

• Design assets including visual designs, prototypes, UI Kit and wireframes.
• Strategy Assets including Site Map and technical architecture.
• Functional specification and fixed bid development quote created from the design.

We will work with your team to ensure that you are choosing a content management system (CMS) that will be easy to use and will grow with your business for years to come. Over the past 20 years, we have built award winning websites on most of the platforms on the market including:

• Drupal
• Adobe Experience Manager
• Wordpress
• Contentful
• Dot Net Nuke
• Joomla
• Kentico

We have also worked with many front end "headless" frameworks such as React, Backbone and Svelte which provide an app-like experience and performance.

Leading up to the project, we will assess the technology for the site and the velocity of the development effort and will assemble your development team. While we draw on experienced developers worldwide, we assign local project management and technical leaders who will always be available to answer your questions and address any concerns you may have. This unique model enables us to move very quickly while providing highly personalized service across a broad spectrum of technologies.

Based on the Site Map and Design Assets, we will create a user friendly place for you to build and manage  your page content. We tailor these screens around your technical capabilities to attain the right balance between control and simplicity. As we often say, when we configure these pages, you should be able to drop your keyboard down a staircase and it will create an attractive if illegible web page for you.

At the outset of the development effort we will have everything planned out; however, we most definitely embrace an agile approach, so should you need to make a few adjustments along the way we will work with you to adapt and adjust priorities and budget as needed to ensure that the final product hits the mark on day 1. Throughout the development effort you will see the site rapidly bring your designs to life while also building out an administrative back-end that makes managing your content a breeze.

The latest trend in web development is the 'decoupled' website so called because the front end user experience is created separately from the back end content management system. These technologies were traditionaly only available to large organizations with deep pockets; however, thanks to the latest in front end development tools, we are able to offer decouled sites to small and medium sized businesses. Benefits of decoupled sites include:

• Performance and SEO optimization.
• Rich, dynamic app-like user experiences.
• Integration of all of your e-commerce, web, marketing, CRM and other systems from one user experience.

Therefore, these techniques will improve your search engine rankings, lower your long term costs and enable much richer user experiences.

No website is an island. As we implement your digital customer journey, we will integrate your website with a carefully selected host of services to keep your users engaged and keep the leads coming. From chat and assisted shopping technologies to user experience optimization and analytics, your site will be wired up with the latest technologies without bogging down performance. 

When your website is completed and launched, we will ensure that you are set up for long term success. Our support and maintenance services will keep your site secure, stabile and up to date. We will also work with your team to monitor conversion rates and site usage to be sure that you are getting the most out of your digital platform.
