Once a strong architecture is approved for the new website, we will begin the design process. Having a solid content and sitemap outline will help to ensure our design is helping to solve problems in addition to simply “looking pretty.” From wireframing and prototyping to final execution, our process is guided by best practices and tailored to your specific business objectives.

Our design philosophy centers on creating seamless and intuitive experiences that captivate users while aligning closely with your brand identity. Our team of digital designers and UX experts meticulously craft interfaces that prioritize usability without compromising on aesthetics. We strike a delicate balance between innovation and functionality, ensuring that every element serves a purpose and enhances the overall user journey.

As page designs are completed for review, they are provided to you as a website ‘prototype’ in Adobe XD. You can preview the full site design in your browser, and provide feedback comments directly onto the design for our team to implement.

Upon approval of all major creative (layout needs approval, but text and images can be updated later), design will then be moved into development.

We recommend WordPress {and WooCommerce} as the best platform for ABC Widgets to build upon. Because WordPress is the world’s most popular CMS, it boasts an impressive library of resources and plugins to solve development challenges that have already been encountered by many. Everything we do is built from the ground up to be SEO friendly and has a back-end that is easy to update.

Due to the highly custom design of the new site, much of the site will be built with a dragand-drop style page builder, on a custom theme framework. Your team will be able to edit text and images on your own. This will allow the ABC Widgets team to control content while also maintain the intricate site design elements. Should you have the need for DIY page-builder capability, we can account for interior pages that use that style template.

Site Nine’s development team will deliver clean code that will allow {domain name} to run smoothly and load quickly.

Once your site is ready for you to review, will send over a development link with BugHerd embedded. This again allows your team to tag any feedback points you may have directly onto the site! You can then track a thread of feedback points as they are updated, and provide any further notes you may have along the way.

Quality assurance isn't just a box to tick – it's a meticulous process ingrained in every step of our web development projects. Our dedicated QA team meticulously tests every aspect of your website, ensuring it performs flawlessly across all major browsers and devices.

Utilizing cutting-edge tools like BrowserStack, we simulate real-world conditions to identify and resolve any potential issues before your site goes live. From functionality and usability to performance and responsiveness, we leave no stone unturned in our quest for perfection.

With Site Nine Studios, you can trust that your website will not only meet but exceed industry standards.

Our recommended hosting platform, WP Engine, also has automated security checks and plugin management to ensure the code is always up to date. Should your live site be hacked, they will run a full site clean and fix to remove the malicious content.

Onsite search engine optimization (SEO) is a fundamental aspect of our development process, dedicated to enhancing the technical performance of your website within search engine results. In addition to prioritizing best design principles and user experience (UX), our development practices place a strong emphasis on meticulous attention to industryleading SEO syntax coding standards.

After conducting a comprehensive audit of your existing site, we ensure that every aspect of your new website's technical foundation aligns with SEO best practices, including correct coding practices for page titles, tags, meta descriptions, and alt tags to enhance search engine visibility. We also configure 301 redirects to maintain URL consistency and develop a customized 404-page template to ensure a user-friendly experience for visitors encountering outdated or broken links.

This will set you up with a great foundation for your ongoing external SEO efforts./p>

Our team utilizes a comprehensive project management app to track timelines, milestones, and updates internally, guaranteeing smooth progress from start to finish.

Throughout the development journey, we prioritize clear and consistent communication with our clients. Our dedicated team ensures that you receive regular updates and insights into the status of your project.

For collaboration and feedback, we leverage tools like Adobe XD for design mockups and BugHerd for streamlined communication on development progress. These tools enable us to work closely with our clients, ensuring that their vision is realized effectively and efficiently.

With Site Nine Studios, you can rest assured that your project is in capable hands, with transparent communication and meticulous attention to detail every step of the way.
