Build
The page designs are worked up from flat images to a functioning website.
Techniques
We use modern coding technologies to build sites: XHTML 1.0 and CSS.
Benefits:
- Quicker download time.
- Easier to update and change.
- Lower maintenance bills.
- Content can be repurposed for Palm-pilots, print or phones.
- Correct operation with modern browsers.
- Greater access for more users.
- Reduced server load.
Partial build
Initially we build just one section of the website; this allows us to test the site with real users.
The feedback we receive allows us to see what areas can be improved, without having to alter the whole site.
This is another part of the iterative design process.
Technical build
Back-end programming and preparation runs alongside interface development.
We use open-source technologies. This means that your money is spent on development time rather then license fees or proprietary training.
