The website design process
Here at Myriad, we have a web site design process which is made up of 5 stages. These stages are:
- Planning
- Designing
- Development
- Launching
- Online
The intial phase of a designing your web site starts as soon as you make contact with us. We will discover your ideas and needs through a design brief and may ask some clarifying questions if necessary. After this, we will provide you with a cost estimate for your project within one week. When we have finalised these details we'll show you all of the milestones and the progress of your project. Then you can begin providing us with content for the site and we will ensure that your web hosting and domain name are set up, if they haven't been already. Lastly, we will outline your site structure and send you a sitemap for approval.
After receiving all your content and finishing the planning, we will start designing. This includes page mock-ups and a consistent style for the site. There may be multiple rounds of mock-ups to ensure that we produce the best design to suit your requirements. This usually consists of two rounds: a variety of intial ideas which will be refined into the most suitable design.
After we reach agreement on the look and feel of your site, we’ll move into development. Myriad will create your site by utilising a variety of different technologies. Throughout the development phase we will ensure that you can follow the progress of work. Before launching your site we test the site and its functionality on many different browsers. Only after this will we launch your web site.
Once your website is online, our involvement with the management of your site is completely up to you. We are happy to help your site grow with your business. Although we are able to do site updates, our CMS websites are easy to use and you won’t need us for that! You are able to update the site yourself without our help or additional charges.
