HITS Web Design Process

Strategic Planning, Key Requirements & Design

During strategic planning, we'll identify your website objectives and optimize their structure. These could be lead generation, e-commerce or education.

Key requirements refer to anything specific your website needs. This could be unique login credentials for different stakeholders, custom branded animations or geotagging so you can show additional content depending on geographic location.

Once the strategy and critical requirements are in place we'll draft wireframes and mockups so you can visualize every page and make adjustments before we start.

Development, Programming & Content Writing

This is the most fun, but also the most time-consuming part. We are bringing it to life.

We will follow all the pre-approved mockups and assemble all your pages and unique business requirements for mobile, tablet and desktop.

A bonus of building a website with us is that we can optimize the website for technical SEO if you already have your SEO strategy. This includes anchor tags, metadata, image sizing, site map, etc.

This can save you money from having a separate agency or employee optimizing the website for SEO. Need an SEO strategy? We can help.

Testing, Launch & Search Engine Optimization Upkeep

At this point, we will ask that you and your team review every page and test every link to make sure it works exactly as you envisioned.

Once testing is complete we will take the website live, or transfer the domain in case of a revamp.

We build turnkey websites so we can hand you the keys and let you manage and edit as you, please. That way you are not trapped by a web developer who owns your code. If you need updates or changes done, we'll be available at an hourly rate.

We are also available for monthly SEO services to get you organic traffic that covers all your website maintenance, security and upkeep.

A basic website design may cost a few hundred dollars, while a more complex website may cost several thousand dollars or more.

Will I be able to make changes or update the site myself once it's done?

100%

We build websites in a way that you can take full control and learn to manage the content by yourself or with your team.

You will have full access to the backend of your new WordPress website to make simple text updates or image changes. You’ll also be able to add new products and update pricing easily on your own.

However, we do recommend a developer complete more complex changes and maintenance such as plugin updates, design or structure changes, and complex functionality requirements.

We will be available for any developer changes necessary at an hourly rate after your website is complete. Or you can make us your SEO partners and include the price of website maintenance in your monthly SEO plan!

Will you provide website hosting and domain?

No, but we can help you identify the service provider that makes the most sense for you and your business.

This will ensure that you have full access to your website upon migration.

But don’t worry. We will set everything up for you, or walk you through it – whichever you prefer.

How do I choose a website design service?

When choosing a website design service, it’s important to consider the designer’s experience, portfolio, pricing, and customer reviews. You may also want to look for a designer who specializes in your industry or has experience creating websites similar to the one you need.

How can technical SEO be integrated into web development services?

Implementing technical SEO into the website build is only offered in our Platinum plan, but definitely something we encourage you to invest in.

Technical SEO can be integrated into web development services by ensuring that the website is built with clean semantic HTML and URLs and that the website’s structure is optimized for search engines.

Additionally, our web development services will ensure we optimize website load times, implement schema markup, and ensure that the website is mobile-friendly.

What is the difference between web design and web development?

Web design refers to the visual aspects of a website, while web development involves the technical aspects of building a website such as programming and database management.

How important is ongoing maintenance for my website?

Ongoing maintenance is essential for keeping your website up-to-date, secure, and performing well.

Maintenance can help with tasks like updating plugins, fixing bugs, and improving website load times.

Additionally, ongoing maintenance can help you identify opportunities for improving your website’s usability, functionality, and search engine optimization.

What is the importance of website design?

Website design is important because it can impact the user experience, the credibility of a business, and the search engine rankings of a website. A well-designed website can attract and retain visitors, while a poorly designed website can drive them away.

How long does it take to build a website?

This is similar to the ‘how much does it cost’ question. It really depends on the website.

The standard timeline is 1-6 weeks but this depends on the project scope since every client has different needs.

Some clients may need more time to get the design right because of their unique brand, and some may take a little longer because of the custom WordPress charts or plugins they need.

The functionality and revisions required will also play a role in your timeline.

Is SEO included in the website build?

No. The price for the website build only includes building all pages with the images, videos, text and custom plugins.

Our Platinum plan offers technical SEO, but that is only the foundation of SEO (and a very important step), but ongoing SEO services are about content creation, keyword research and strategy – which is not part of the website build.

We do offer monthly SEO services that we can bundle into your website build and save you some money.

Reach out to us and we can make it happen.

Who will write all the text/copy of the website?

You provide all of the text content for your website as part of the design process.

You are the expert on your business, so it’s always best if text and content come from you.

If you need assistance, we can help clean up or write original content for you at an additional cost.

What is responsive web design and will the website be mobile friendly?

Responsive web design is an approach to web design that involves creating websites that can adapt to different screen sizes and devices.

This means that the website will look and function properly on desktop computers, laptops, tablets, and smartphones.
