Website Design
Because You Need more than just a website
In fact, having a poor website can be worse than not having one at all. Your target audience will make snap judgements about your company within the first 1–2 seconds they view your website.
The bar has never been higher to cut through the noise and connect with today’s digital-savvy buyers. Is your website designed to attract and engage with your audience? Are you losing sales to your competitors because of your company’s website?
Your website is the hub of your marketing program. We have more than 20 years of experience, having built hundreds of websites, so we know what works and what doesn’t.
Our Web Design Process
We follow a proven four-step methodology.
Step 1: Explore
We believe every successful project starts with a strong foundation. We ask lots of questions to understand your needs, goals, audience, and desired outcomes. This acts as our road map that we use to ensure we continue in the right direction and successfully reach the destination.
Step 2: Design
We begin by further studying your audience, industry and competition. We brainstorm and conceptualize visual solutions that express your core message. Scrutiny is applied to every choice, from typefaces to color palettes, as we refine ideas and develop them into finished mock ups for you to evaluate.
Step 3: Develop
Once the design concept is approved, we move to the nuts and bolts of the project. Websites are coded and page content is built out. Key features and functionality are implemented. Responsive testing and adjustments are made. In short, we roll up our sleeves and we really “sweat the small stuff.”
Step 4: Deploy
We successfully carry the project through delivery but our work doesn’t stop there. We work with you to gather feedback, provide support and tie up any remaining details. Our years of experience helps ensure the entire process has gone smoothly and the final result achieves the project’s goals.

My main objectives were to find a partner with the necessary creative chops, the technical expertise to design and build a modern website, and the people skills to listen and understand my needs yet push-back appropriately and contribute ideas and original thinking (not be “order-takers”). They exceeded my expectations on all three criteria. I enjoyed working with them and am thrilled with the results!”
