Our mantra for every Web site project is to keep the design & development process transparent and engaging. We will meet with you for a FREE 1 hour consultation and discuss the broad outlines of your online strategy. Once a good concept comes into focus, we will begin work on the project. Here's how it works in 5 easy steps:

Questions & Answers

How will you know what my Web site should look like?

As part of the initial consulting phase, we try to get a clear sense of what your particular style already is. You may have certain fonts or colors that you naturally gravitate to. If you have existing marketing materials (a logo, business cards, brochures, etc.), we can work within the parameters of your existing design language. However, we often find that people expect a Web site to "jazz" things up a bit compared to a business card or flyer, so we try to find ways to make important elements pop on the site. Our ultimate goal is that when we send you our first mockup, your reaction isn't "what on earth is this?!" but "wow, that really matches what I was expecting!"

If I don't know how I want to structure content into a Site Map, can I figure that out and make changes later?

You will have the ability to make simple changes to formatted textual and graphical content that is already on your site once it's launched, but from a process standpoint it is preferable that we will have a Site Map worked out and ready to go before a mockup or functional site structure is created. That way you won't have to spend extra money later for us to redo major design work.

It seems like there are easy ways to get online now, like WordPress or GoDaddy. Why is it worth it to spend extra money and work with a Web designer?

It is true that you can get a Web site up and running for free or minimal cost. It might look pretty good too. But it's not going to be tailor-made to your brand and present the content and features that are important to your specific line of business, and — trust us — customers know the difference between a unique, custom-designed Web site and a publicly-available template.

You want more than just a foot in the door — you want to shine on the Web, you want to stand out, you want to invite your customers and partners into a sense of genuine, authentic relationship with you. A quality site designed just for you can do exactly that.

Once my site is up and running, how do I know you'll be there to fix problems and answer questions? I worked with another designer a while back and they just disappeared and left me hanging.
