WEBSITE DEVELOPMENT

High performing sites that are easy to manage

The process of creating and building a functional website, involving tasks such as design, coding, content creation, and testing. Where a website comes to life.

Web Development

What to expect in development

1

Technical discovery

To build a new, highly functional website, we must first begin by understanding the intricacies and technologies on your current site.

2

Building a site shell

Every design turns into a page on the new site. Global elements are set and blocks are created.

3

Content integration and review

Our content team will take the content you provide (new or existing) and move it to the new site using all the newly designed and developed templates and content blocks. After which, each page gets reviewed by a member from each department: creative lead, designer, content lead, and PM.

4

Q/A and performance testing

Our team will pick apart the new website to discover bugs, errors and issues. We complete several rounds of cross browser testing, mobile testing, speed testing, and more.

5

On-page SEO

We incorporate relevant keywords and meta tags to ensure improved search engine rankings and attract targeted organic traffic.

smooth it goes

CMS platforms we
specialize in

The most robust, well supported, and flexible CMS. We’ve built sites on WordPress for over 20 years and it’s still our primary platform.

It’s possible to streamline aspects of development by using a design platform that generates code. Webflow is our preferred low-code CMS solution.

For clients that need a shopping-first experience. It offers a simple interface, extensive customization, and integrated payment solutions

Unlike traditional CMS platforms, headless CMS decouples the content from the presentation layer. That means strong flexibility but less user-friendly for updating content.
