Building a web site is a function of preparation. . .

The more pre-planning you do, the easier, faster, and cheaper the actual process becomes. There are clients who come to us having done considerable research and given a lot of thought to exactly why they want a web site and what they want it to be like. These clients might even provide us with a very detailed request for proposal (RFP).

More often, though, our clients know they want a web site, or that they want to improve the web site they have, but they don't really know what direction they want to go in. They don't have a clear idea of what the web can do for them and they haven't really researched the competition and standards in their field.

We enjoy the opportunity of helping a company discover what its internet strategy should be. These are some of the things we will cover when we help you develop yours:

YOUR BUSINESS
We start by learning about your business, your market, your customers and competitors. Then we review your current marketing efforts and your short and long term goals for your business.

YOUR COMPETITION
The next step we follow is to turn to the internet and begin looking at the web sites of your competition. What are they doing with their sites? How well are they doing in the search engines? What other sites are linking to their sites?

YOUR VISION
Next, we work with you to develop a "wish list"   if they were no budgetary other other constraints, what would you like your site to look like and do? Based on our experience, we make suggestions at this point that we feel would add value to the site.

THE WORKING PLAN
Now taking any constraints   cost, timing, priorities   into consideration, we put together a comprehensive plan detailing our findings and recommendations. We identify the different options and offer an explanation of each. We cover both short and long term options and recommendations so that the plan is useful for the present and well into the future.
