Web Design
The overall look and feel of the website is usually the first stage of development, creating a template that will act as the base throughout the site. This is where our graphic designers come into play and work with a multitude of applications including Adobe Fireworks, Adobe Dreamweaver, Adobe Flash and Adobe Photoshop. The design will go through many phases before completion and passing over to the Web Development team, this includes basic color scheme choices, layout and decisions regarding content features such as CSS, Flash, or a full ASP.NET page linked to a SQL back end.
The look and layout of the website is one of the most important visitor retention factors. Considering that an average user will have made their decision whether they like the look of the site in under 50 milliseconds it is very important to get to get that first impression right. So there are certain factors that the design must include;
- The visual design is eye catching and fluent throughout.
- Graphics are optimized for optimal performance and download speeds.
- Fonts are appealing without being overwhelming.
- Multi-browser compatible.
- Consistent design and relation to the theme.
- Providing a clear representation of what the company offers.
All of these points are essential for making a professional and functional site which appeals to anyone that views it. Although every design does not have to reach these foundation requirements, and perhaps has other design factors, we always enforce quality and usability into our designs.
