Web Design Process

You are included in
the design process.

My main objective is to create websites my clients are exceptionally happy with – websites that reflect their values and reach their target audience as effectively and as efficiently as possible. To accomplish this, I work alongside my clients as a team, giving my clients a voice into the look and feel of the websites I create for them, with my design skills and my years of experience in web design to guide them through the design process. I design with you, not just for you.

From consultation to launch – 5 simple steps

This is a long-term investment, so let’s do it right.

To help you understand a little bit more about what a web project might involve, here is the typical design process streamlined into five simple steps.

Initial Consultation & Discovery

The initial consultation is the first step in learning about you, your business, and your web design needs. Through a series of questions, this step gives me a clearer understanding of what you are looking for in a website, as well as who your competitors are and who your target audience is – all factors that will influence the look, feel, and design of the website. If you are located in Barcelona, we can certainly meet in person. If you are in a different city or country or don’t have time to meet, we can easily consult via phone, Skype, Whatsapp, or Facetime.

Research & Sketches

After the initial consultation and discovery process, I take my notes and begin researching. This includes studying the websites of your primary competitors and the websites of others in your city and elsewhere, aiming to capture the attention of your target audience. My main objective here is to discover ways to incorporate and improve successful companies’ design aspects within the same sector. I begin sketching ideas on paper, and once I have narrowed these ideas down to the best ones, it is time to start designing the website.

Design & Development

The design and development stage involves converting the design concept into web pages. This is done by transforming the information gathered and sketches created in the previous two steps into visual entities. I explore and try different layouts, fonts, colors, and other design aspects, considering the website’s ease of navigation and overall usability. The company/organization’s brand will also play an essential role in this step of the design process, as we will want to visually convey key brand attributes and perceptual ideas within the design.

A week (or two) after the design and development stage starts, you will be provided a link to the staging site where the website is being developed, allowing you to check on its progress at all times, 24/7. This also will enable you to provide me with feedback throughout the design process.

Site Testing

Once the design is complete, it is time to test the website to ensure everything is looking and functioning correctly. While still on the staging site, all aspects of the website should be tested and checked, both by myself and by you and your team. The site must be reviewed and tested using different browsers (Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer) and multiple devices (desktop, laptop, tablet, and mobile) to see if anything needs adjusting before officially launching.

Launch

Congratulations – it’s the big day! The site is now ready to be transferred to the live server. Once the site has been transferred, it is time to prepare the website for public viewing. This includes “polishing” the website, checking that everything looks its very best, and testing the site using different browsers and on multiple devices. With all tests completed, it is time to announce the launch of your new website to the world!

After the official launch, website care plans are available to ensure that your site remains fresh, up-to-date, and secure at all times.
