Our 5 Step Website Design Process

01

A Clear Quote

  • Not quite sure what you need from Ohio web development? Don't worry, we will help you bring your vision to life.
  • Think about the goals you want to achieve. Whether it is revamping an existing design, reducing maintenance costs or improving conversion rates, we can create solutions to meet your targets.
  • We walk you through this with a simple questionnaire, helping us to understand what you need, what you do, what you value and the goals you have.
02

Onboarding

  • Both parties sign a secure, legally binding (and convenient) digital contract. Everything is spelled out clearly and in plain English. No advanced legalese or law degree is required.
  • We set you up with access to your own project board on Nifty, so you can monitor progress, communicate with us, and see everything we are working on at any time.
03

Design

  • Our questionnaire clarifies what you need, what you do, who you do it for, your mission, and of course... your design style, which will be used on your new style guide page.
  • You will see custom mockups before we write a single line of code. We design in the browser so you can see exactly what your site will look like on every device.
  • Revisions are unlimited. We keep refining until you are 100% happy with the design.
04

Development

  • We get started by setting up a wireframe on a temporary domain where you can view all the live progress. This ensures there's no downtime on your current website while we are creating the new one.
  • Every site is built with clean, modern code optimized for speed, SEO, and security from the start.
  • We test on every major browser and device to make sure everything works perfectly.
05

Launch

  • The moment you've been waiting for! Your new site is already set up and just waiting to take off!
  • We test everything to verify all contact forms, integrations, and email addresses are working correctly.
  • Then, we double check your site loads quickly to increase conversions.
  • After the final payment is made, we point the real domain name to your new site and... BAM! Your new site is live!
  • Don't have a domain name? We can help you set one up at no additional cost.

FAQ

Process Questions

How long does the whole process take?

Most websites are completed in 2-4 weeks. The exact timeline depends on the complexity of the project, how quickly you provide feedback, and how many revisions are needed.

What do I need to provide?

We will need your logo (or we can design one), brand colors if you have them, any existing content or copy, and access to your domain and hosting. We handle everything else.

Can I see the website before it goes live?

Absolutely! We build on a temporary domain so you can see live progress at any time. Nothing goes live until you give the final approval.

What if I want changes after the site is live?

We offer ongoing maintenance plans so we can make updates, add pages, and keep everything running smoothly. Small changes are handled quickly.

Do you write the content for the website?

We can! We offer content writing as an add-on service. Many clients provide their own content, but we are happy to write SEO-optimized copy for you.
