The Typical Custom Web Development Process

Project Detail Collection

During this stage, we want to learn everything we can about your needs for the web development project. There are a few specific items that we will always need in order to start a project.

  • Budget
  • Branding Materials (Logos, Colors and etc)
  • Required Functionality (Forms, Memberships, Online Sales?)
  • Plan for Hosting

Once we have this info we can get to work on creating your website.

Prototyping Phase

During this stage, we build a barebones version of your site, implementing the functionality you requested. At this stage we also outline potential trouble spots with the functionality related to ease-of-use and management. At this stage, we also start narrowing in on the final design of the site. By the end of the proto-typing stage, the site looks pretty close to how it will look at launch.

Finishing Touches

At this stage, we implement SEO, test, and repair any performance issues. At this time you are given instructions on how to manage your site and spend the time before launch ensuring everything on the site is working as you expected and inputting your content.

Launch

During the site launch, we moved the site from our development server to the hosting solution you chose earlier. We set up your Google Analytics, integrate your site with search console and ensure your DNS settings are configured correctly.

After launch, we make ourselves available to answer any questions you might have regarding your new site. We are proud that our clients choose to continue working with us after launch, with many of our existing clients choosing to host their sites with us for as long as five years straight.

In addition to excellent web development, post-launch you can also count on us for help regarding your social media campaigns or paid ad campaigns. Having the same team available to work on your website, social media and advertising saves time and money for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Much Will My Web Development Project Cost?

There are many factors that can affect the cost of a new website. The typical range for a new small business website build is between $500 to $2,000. This wide range in cost is due to the wide range in potential functionality, with sites that require e-commerce and custom functionality costing much more than static sites with simple functionality.

How Long Does it Take To Build a Website for a Small Business?

Every project is different, and the time required to build a site is based on the size of the project, the complexity of the required features and other factors. However, the average length of development for a simple website is typically one to two months. A site of this size would typically have a few pages, a contact form and a few other features.

Do I need a custom website, or can I use a template?

In most cases, it is perfectly fine to use a template to get your website started.
