In the web development world it is typically called “work flow”.
Every project is unique but also has similarities to previous projects.
There are typically a few basic steps that every web development will go through in order to arrive at the best possible outcome.
Discovering the purpose of the project is always the first step. The purpose of a website or logo is to communicate a message to people about the company or service of the site owner.
When that message has been identified, we can move on to development.
In development we isolate and clarify the purpose, developing ideas about how the website might best communicate the desired message. When this has been clearly established we begin work on the design.
In the design phase we begin to explore different ways of communicating the intended message that is to be expressed by experimenting with colors, images, and carefully chosen words. Similar ideas are grouped together which will form sections and/or pages.
It is a rare occurrence for a build to take place without revisiting the design phase and making changes as we discover that some of the ideas which seemed good at the time turn out to be not so good as the project begins to take shape.
When the build is complete we test every button and every link on every page until we are satisfied that it all works as it should on all the standard screen sizes, and the most popular browsers.
This is a package deal! It goes together like ketchup and french fries – if you want one without the other, we might make it work with a little negotiation.
