Introduction and initial inventory of requirements

The first step is an introductory meeting. The website is an important part of the organization and always evolving. Therefore, there must be a good connection with the company and the people creating the website.

You want the website to look good and help achieve online results. Before we start developing the website, we like to think along with you. What do you want to achieve with your website? Who do you want to reach? What image do you want to project? What is your competition doing online, and do you want to follow or stand out? Once we have clarity, we can get started.

It is crucial that the website is not only visually appealing but also effectively contributes to your online success. Before we begin development, we want to think together about your goals. What exactly do you want to achieve with your website? Who is your target audience? What kind of appearance do you want? What is your competition doing online, and do you want to follow or differentiate? Once these questions are clearly mapped out, we can truly begin.

General goals of a website

An effective website contributes structurally and measurably to organizational goals and aligns with the information needs of target audiences. The website must be easy to use, both for visitors and administrators. Of course, the website must be easily found and able to grow with the organization. Additionally, it is important that the website:

• Strengthens brand identity and conveys company values.
• Generates leads and stimulates sales.
• Provides customer service and support information.
• Offers a platform for customer interaction and feedback.
• Stays up-to-date with the latest technologies and trends.

What do the target audiences want?

Website development is often approached from the company's perspective, but have you considered what the target audience wants?

• An answer to their question
• A solution to their problem
• Clear information about the solutions your products and services provide
• Who, what, where information
• Frequently Asked Questions (F.A.Q.)
• Clear Call-to-Actions
• User-friendly navigation and interface
• Fast loading times and good performance on all devices
• Accessibility for people with disabilities
• Security and protection of their data

Once you understand what is important to your audience, you can move on to the next step.

Research

Depending on the number of requirements, a more extensive inventory may be needed. Research may be conducted into integration possibilities with other systems, for example, if the website will be used as a customer portal and all customer data is stored internally in a CRM. Or if an online catalog will be added to the website with products and services also listed in your internal (administration) system. Usually, when there are requirements for reservations, quote requests, purchases, or product comparisons, functionalities are mapped out in detail, often after a brainstorming session with multiple stakeholders.

We describe all functionalities in a functional design. This way, you know exactly what you will get, and our developers know exactly what to build.

Execution

After the inventory, the designer starts creating the design for the new website. The design will reflect the desired atmosphere and align seamlessly with your organization's identity. The design is set up to allow easy expansion with additional elements later without losing its original character. By creating a flexible design, the website automatically adapts to different screen sizes, such as desktops, laptops, tablets, and mobile phones. Once you approve the design, we convert it into a functioning website with all desired applications and functionalities, including a user-friendly CMS environment for management.

Delivery

The website is thoroughly tested on various browsers and then delivered. You will receive a manual and instructions so the website can be populated with content. After delivery, an evaluation follows. Even after the website goes live, we continue to support you with updates and support. Success doesn't come automatically; it requires hard work after going live!

Aftercare and maintenance

After the website is delivered, we offer various aftercare and maintenance services. This includes regular updates to ensure the security and functionality of your website, as well as support for any technical issues.

Website optimization

To ensure your website reaches its full potential, you will also need to reserve time for search engine optimization (SEO). This helps increase your visibility and attract more traffic to your website. Regarding SEO, we ensure you have the tools to optimize the website yourself.

This way, your website is not only functional and attractive but also effectively contributes to your organization's goals.
