Ensuring Client Satisfaction
MasterThemes follows a Web design process that ensures our clients receive
professional, quality service during all phases of development.
Discovery
We start by getting to know your company, your business, and the goals for
your site. We’ll work closely with you to define your objectives, discuss your
budget, identify your target audience and examine your existing branding. During
the discovery phase we’ll ask questions to determine the purpose of your site,
the image you wish to convey and the message you aim to deliver. We’ll ask about
the websites you like – and don’t like. We may ask you to provide samples of
existing marketing collateral, artwork and other brand information. If no brand
identify exists, we can help you with that too.
Concept Design
Based on what we learn from the discovery phase, we will create various
design samples for your review. We will then publish these as JPEG files to a
secured location off of the MasterThemes.net website, or present them to you.
These samples will define the common elements to be carried out throughout the
website, including standard colors, a standard page layout, standard header and
footer styles, and a standard navigation scheme. We will then document requested
changes or questions, and modify a final design concept to your requirements.
Site Development
MasterThemes will create a fully-functioning prototype website from the final
approved design. The site will be fully navigable and include all sections,
pages, and graphics, as well as client-provided content. The site will be
available for review and approval at a secured location off of the
MasterThemes.net website. At this time, MasterThemes will implement minor
modifications requested by the client.
Site Deployment
Upon final approval of the prototype website, we will publish the completed
website to a pre-determined Web hosting service provider. We can recommend
several low-cost Web hosting companies. For knowledge transfer, a MasterThemes
Web Developer will work with you to explain and demonstrate how to use Adobe
Dreamweaver or Microsoft SharePoint Designer to maintain and modify the site.
