Your New Website

You have decided to get a new website or finally update your old one. Congratulations! This is the next step in showcasing your business to customers and potential customers.

The Process

The website development process typically involves the following steps. The process is, of course, more in-depth but this will give you an idea of what goes into it.

Planning

The first step is to plan the website development process. This involves identifying the purpose of the website, defining the target audience, creating a content strategy, and determining the website’s structure and navigation.

Design

Once the planning phase is complete, the next step is to create a design for the website. This involves creating a visual layout and selecting color schemes, typography, and other design elements.

Development

The development phase is the actual coding and building of the website. This includes creating HTML and CSS files, integrating design elements, adding functionality, and testing the website.

Content creation

The content creation phase involves creating and adding content to the website, including text, images, videos, and other multimedia elements. Adding identified keywords to the text to help with search engine placement.

Testing

After the website is developed, it needs to be tested thoroughly to ensure that it is functioning correctly and is compatible with different devices and browsers. This means testing all forms, links, and content for any typos.

Launch

Once the website is tested and approved, it is launched and made available to the public.

Search engines

Once the website is launched, it needs to be submitted to search engines. This helps with placement so that it can be found.

Maintenance

After the website is launched, it needs to be maintained and updated regularly to ensure that it stays current, relevant, and secure. This includes updating plugins, and WordPress versions, tracking website traffic, and keeping blog content coming. See our Maintenace page for more information.

These steps may vary depending on the complexity of the website and the specific requirements of the project. However, this general process provides a framework for developing a website from start to finish.
