We’ll ensure your website truly conveys your intentions. We partner with you to create a style that highlights your company’s strengths and uniqueness.

Pier5 Design and Development Process

l

Initial Meeting

Our first meeting will include a detailed outline of our process and discussing your expectations for your site.

During this meeting we will:

  • Review your needs
  • Discuss features and design style
  • Settle on a domain name
  • Walk through the contract

Mockups

Now we’ll take what we learned in the initial meeting and get started with design! We do this with static images so we can make changes quickly.

At the end of the mockup (draft) phase we will:

  • Settle on a design style that is right for you
  • Create a few mockup pages using that style
  • Send the mockups to you for feedback and changes

Building Your Site

Once we have finalized the design, it’s time to get to work developing your site. Throughout this process, we will be checking in with you to keep you updated.

Important: We need to have all the content before we start this phase!

  • Text Blurbs
  • Pictures
  • Email Form Details
  • Keywords for SEO
  • Substantial Draft of Content

Handoff Meeting

During this meeting we will:

  • Give you any final information
  • Make sure you can log in to your site
