Preparation
The Planning Stage
This is the most important and crucial part of the process. During this stage, we interact with the client and discuss the entire project with them. We gather and analyze the client's goal, target market, projects features and technical requirements and offer our suggestions based from the information provided. We then create a project summary document and contracts. As soon as terms are agreed, we gain access to client's server, FTP, database and other credentials. Details gathered from the collaboration with our clients are ingredients needed for a successful project development.
Mixing & Moulding
The Design Stage
This is the stage where we mix all the ingredients and mold them to reality. To provide clients with a good visual of the entire flow and system interaction, we create design wireframes. Wireframes are simple layouts containing design elements and sections. A round of reviewing and modifying takes place until client is satisfied. The actual web design then follows by applying textures, colors and typographies to the wireframes. Another round of review is done until design is approved. After this series of mix and mold process, the client's web biscuits are now shaped and formed, ready to be baked.
Baking
The Development Stage
The most detailed process is the development stage. We make sure that the plan and design are carefully followed from the start to finish. It starts with design conversion to a valid HTML and CSS, then building the site using a content management system (CMS) platform of choice. As soon as the CMS is set up and the theme is fully integrated, we focus on the features, usability and interactivity of the system. Content setup is done afterward. Rounds of testing are made after the development to ensure the plan and design requirements have been fully met.
Delivery
The Launching Stage
It's delivery time! Oven fresh website is now ready to be delivered. We transfer the site to its production environment and conduct the final testing. Lastly, we do a final round of checking over cross-browser & mobile compatibility, link check, features and interactivity. If everything looks good, we officially launch the site and have Google index it. We hand off all the documentations, source files and instructions pertaining to the new site. We also offer technical support and maintenance to confirm that the long term goal is met.
