Website are our forte`, we have many repeat customer for their other ventures!
We cannot tell you how many times we have had a prospective client call us and ask us how much a website will cost and nothing else. No particulars or maybe just a small website. What is small? Look at it this way, when you call a builder and ask how much is to build a new structure? Would you be offended if the builder said, is it a commercial or residential, how many floors do you want, how many rooms, baths – sinks, shower, tubs, bidet, kitchen, number of garage space, how big is the lot, do you want air conditioning, heat, appliances and what type, economy materials or luxury, window and door types, is it stucco, brick, stone, wood, CBS or framed, roof type – hip, gable – metal, shingle, shake, gravel or cement? The list of questions is quite lengthy before a quote or proposal is draw up and it depends on your choices.
Websites are no different than building a building. The designing of the structure is called Website Design Architecture and is the planning stage of the website. It is the foundation that all will be built on.
If you have built a home before you have an idea of the process. If you have not, we will guide you step by step. However, it will not be like pulling teeth or your hair out like building your home.
The Intro is setting a tone of the website – the neighborhood.
The Home page – is the theme and first impression. It uses to be the first impression was the business building, business card or the employee. Now days it is the website that gives the first impression; is your home a ranch, modern contemporary, skyscraper, log cabin, is it bright, classic, subtle, neutral etc.?
The internal pages are the rooms - each one for a special purpose.
Let's not forget the all important Code Enforcement - following the rules set to have a stable and viewable website on the major browsers that all look very much a like on everyone's computer. This is an important one. Many times clients want a website built for their computer and browser only. STOP! Are you building it for yourself or the world? Think about all the different monitor sizes, screen setting, color variations, font setting sizes, web fonts versus your special install fonts etc. CyberDiamond knows the rules of the Professional builder. Remember, what will impress your prospective viewers - will it be a professional designer building or a back woods homemade shack?
This is just a start in understand the website design architecture. Each site is an individual just like you and your business. Sure there a cookie cutter templates you can use and be just like another home-made business. However, if you are coming to CyberDiamond for your website you must be looking for that individual message and professional first impression.
We will first interview you. We will want to get to know you, your product or service, the target audience demographics, and the first impression you want to make such as cheerful, conservative, whimsical, easy-going, small/large, professional, stuffy/ultra-professional, warm and inviting, caring and personal, highly skilled, technical, advance technologies, equal to the viewer, above the viewer, etc. We will ask you what you like for color palettes, static or animated and much more. It is helpful if you give us some web addresses to websites and tell us your likes and dislikes about them. The intake interview can take anywhere from 15 minutes on a small site to several hours on large websites.
Part of the website design process is to know how you will market your business. Having a website does not mean the world will know your there. In budgeting for your website project consider how much marketing it will need. We guide you on items that will help you promote your site. Some items and suggestions for exposure are free or just take the time to do it. Other you will have to consider paid exposure. Think of it this way you make commercial and you need to buy air time. Or the building is in the industrial park how are you going to get people to know you are there? Ask your friends and clients if they were going to try to find your business on the web and did not know your name or domain name, how would they search for you? Write down those phrases, it will help in some of the market applications. CyberDiamond can get you started in submitting your website to search engines and place you can get free to minimal cost exposure; however, we are a technologies company and not a big marketing or promoting firm. We will be happy to work with a promoter or marketing company of your choice on larger campaigns.
This is a team effort and it will require you to do some work and supply the text you want or any specific images you want included.
