Site Design
Methodology
We recommend that
You set up a
system that caters for
expansion and
flexibility in allowing
the content of the site
to grow. As a part of
our dynamic development
methodology, we
identify the following
ingredients that make a
successful Website.
These characteristics
can be incorporated
into YOUR site,
to fulfill and enhance
the objectives
above.
When Choosing a website
to suit your needs
there are many factors
that need to be taken
into account to arrive
at the Best
result for
YOU.
Your ideal website may
be a one page sales
letter style site or a
5 - 10 page content
site, or a Dynamic
database driven
information or
membership cart, or a
ecommerce enable
shopping cart. The end
results depend on your
requirements now and in
the future.




Fast
loading
The biggest single
reason visitors do not
stay at a Website is
that it takes too long
to load - that is the
time it takes for the
page to appear on the
computer screen. The
site needs to be
designed around the
premise of 'loading' as
quickly as possible. To
achieve this your site
will have a strong text
base for the pages
(text loads very, very
quickly). When
photographs are used,
we will tailor them to
be the appropriate size
and structure to ensure
that they load within
an appropriate
timeframe.
Browser
compatibility
The site needs to be
compatible for viewing
across a wide range of
user platforms and
browser software. We
will test the site with
many different browsers
to ensure that the vast
majority of visitors
can see the site
quickly and easily.
Look
An Internet site today
represents the first
contact point for many
prospective clients. It
is, in a nutshell,
showing how
professional a company
is, and what kind of
attitude they have in
selling themselves. In
full consultation with
You, we will discuss
the interface and
layout of the site with
you, to ensure the site
is attractive,
appealing and reflects
the appropriate image.
We utilize extensive
usability survey to
ensure the site is
simple to navigate to
encourage usage.
Precise (right)
Information
Along with having an
appealing and
attractive look and
feel to the site, the
content of the site
must be precisely what
the user needs to see.
Additionally, search
engine positioning must
be considered and the
site will be developed
with key words and
placement of same as a
consideration. search
Engines like website's
or web pages,which
cater to a niche
market.
Web
Hosting
Hosting of a site we
design is included in
the Total package. You
are free to choose
another webhost if you
will, However as Web
Hosts we offer you the
best deal on webhosting
that you will find
anywhere.
Data
refreshment
Fresh data needs to be
added to the site very
regularly to aid the
repeat visits by
interested parties.
Depending upon the
level of Data
refreshment will
develop some of the
site as what is called
a Web based browser
database that you can
use to edit/add/delete
some page content.
Alternatively you may
choose a Content
Management
System, which
allows you to edit any
page, delete any page,
add a new page or
change the order in
which pages are
displayed. A CMS
website can be changed
or updated in a matter
of minutes. We will
provide training to
ensure that this can be
effectively
completed.
Marketing
This should include
such aspects as
identifying and
arranging reciprocal
links, search engine
submissions, providing
off-line and marketing
ideas such as postcard
mail-out. A key aspect
of Internet marketing
for many sites is high
search engine rankings.
The site would be
designed in such a way
as to maximize its
potential for the
highest possible
rankings. In our
experience, we have
found submission of the
site to multiple search
engines as the most
successful way to
increase visitor
numbers to the
site.
Photography
As indicated,
photographs of various
properties, people and
situations will need to
be obtained for the
site. Digital
photography required
for general site work
is included in the
quote.

your website visitors,
pages visited, entry
and exit pages are
