Web Design
What Is Your Web Design Process?

We here at Bower Web Solutions normally break down a web site design project into four major phases: Consulting, Design, Development and Implementation. Every aspect of a web design project will usually fall into one of these categories. We have listed a few examples of each below:

• Consulting
  • initial meeting to learn about your company and its needs
  • formulate an overall strategy for your project (Statement of Work)
  • help you to discover how a web site will benefit your company and clients
  • create an organized "Site Map" for your site
  • set up services such as web hosting, domain names, email, if applicable
  • answer any questions, resolve any technical issues that may arise during the course of the web design project
• Design
  • create a static "mockup" of how a typical page in your new web site will look
    NOTE: We will not perform any programming until you are happy with the design.
• Development
  • program the actual web pages themselves to build out the site
  • create graphics and insert provided text /image content
  • design multimedia and advanced programming (if needed)
  • program an online store or e-commerce (if needed)
  • program a database system (if needed)
• Implementation
  • Testing: on as many different browsers / platforms as possible
  • Site Launch: site is transferred to the web server and is opened to the public
  • Search Engine Submissions: we manually submit your web site to various search engines so potential customers may find you.
