Building Web Sites for the Known Universe

Internet Web Site Services

Some of our services are:

Site Design & Development

We provide complete web design and development from the initial concept through the final design and implementation of your new web site. Design and Development are somewhat overlapping terms. Design is more conceptional in nature and focuses more on the graphics layout, look, feel, color choices, and general appearance of each web page whereas Development tends to be more oriented towards writing the code to implement the conceptional design.

Steps involved in the design and development process include:

• Meeting with you so we can understand your business and your web site requirements.
• Helping you select a name for your new web site.
• Registering your domain name so that you rather than some web hosting company owns your domain name.
• Helping you select a web hosting service that meets your needs.
• Grey-Sheeting. Determining what pages you will need on the site, their flow, and the content of each page. Similar to making an outline of each page including text.
• Graphic Design. After determining the content of your web site, we do the graphic design and layout of the various pages. Sometimes Graphic Design and Grey-Sheeting occur simultaneously.
• Approval of the final design.
• Making your new web site "live."

Site Redesign

We provide complete web redesign, often called a "re-do" or "make-over," from the initial concept through the final design and implementation of your redesigned web site. Sometimes a redesign is necessitated by changing functional needs, or perhaps you are simply tired of looking at an old, outdated design! Steps involved in a redesign are very similar to a complete initial design and include:

• Meeting with you so we can understand your business and your web site requirements and why you wish to do a redesign.
• Sometimes helping you recover your domain name from a web hosting company which has control of your domain name.
• Helping you select a web hosting service that meets your needs if you wish to change your current web hosting company.
• Grey-Sheeting. Determining what pages you will need on the new site, the flow, and the content of each page.
• Graphic Design. As necessary we will do a new graphic design and layout of the various pages.
• Approval of the final design.
• Making your new web site "live."

Site Maintenance

No web site is, or should be, static with no new content. If nothing else, visitors should find new content on your site to keep them coming back to see what is new. Or some sites may need constant price revisions or other continuing changes. We can do that needed maintenance on an exiting web site for you. Or you may decide you need a totally new page patterened after the existing design. Generally, simple maintenance of an existing page is very inexpensive. Site maintenance includes:

• Making changes to an existing page on your site.
• Adding additional pages based on the exiting site design.
• Approval of the changes.
• Making the changes "live."

Web Orphan

Are you a Web Orphan? Do you need changes to your web site, but the original developer or company has gone out of business or can't be located? We can help! We do a lot of work for companies who need web work done, but have no one to turn to! We would be happy to take over maintenance or revision of your web site. Please give us a call to let us know what we can do to help you!
