Specialist WordPress Website Design & Development

There will be four phases…

Phase one – Discover: we undertake a series of scoping sessions with you to identify requirements, ask you to complete a project kickoff form.

Phase Two – Define: Having gathered information during the scoping stage, we develop our findings into the WordPress development framework:  identifying key post types that will be created to control and manage your content,  create site plans and refine wireframe / design layouts which are presented to the client for valued comment and feedback. Three rounds of design revisions are provided.

Phase three – Develop: Drawing on technical skills, we will then develop  the layouts and functionality of the site, providing the solutions necessary for you to engage your  audiences. Our approach is not to produce quick fixes, but to design websites that are future proofed with flexibility to grow and evolve as the  organisation evolves.

Phase four – Deliver: Well-planned schedules ensure that we deliver projects on time, on budget and on spec. We communicate with you throughout the process so that you always know where we are and how far we’ve got to go. The website being live is not the end of the journey for us. We can deliver training so that in-house members of staff feel comfortable updating the website going forward.
