Process

A clear path fromidea to launch.

Six stages, with a review and approval point before each major step. You always know what’s happening, what we need from you, and what comes next.

Before we begin

It starts with a conversation.

Send a project inquiry and we’ll arrange a consultation to understand what you need. If it’s a good fit, you’ll receive a written proposal covering scope, stages and next steps before any work begins.

Start a Project

The six stages

  1. Discover

    We understand your business, audience, and objectives — what makes you different, who you serve, and what the website needs to achieve.

    • Consultation
    • Goals & requirements
    • Content review

    Your part: tell us about your business, your customers and what success looks like. Examples of sites you admire help.

  2. Design

    We develop a visual direction that reflects your identity, then design the key pages for desktop and mobile.

    • Visual direction
    • Page designs
    • Your review & approval

    Review & approvalYou review the direction and page designs, ask for agreed changes, and approve them before any building starts.

  3. Develop

    We transform the approved design into a responsive, functional website, with forms, content and interactions in place.

    • Responsive build
    • Content added
    • Private preview link

    Your part: open the private preview link on your own phone and computer, and see the real site take shape.

  4. Refine

    We review the website, test interactions, and incorporate agreed feedback — checking it on real devices and screen sizes.

    • Cross-device testing
    • Agreed revisions
    • Final approval

    Final approvalYour comments are worked through one by one. Nothing goes live until you sign off.

  5. Launch

    We finalize the deployment and prepare your website for its audience: hosting, domain, security and final checks.

    • Domain & SSL
    • Go-live checks
    • Handover

    Your part: confirm access to your domain and agree the go-live date.

  6. Support

    We provide optional ongoing website care and updates, so your site keeps pace with your business.

    • Optional care plan
    • Updates & changes
    • Ongoing improvements

    Your part: nothing, unless you want it. The site is yours: manage it yourself, or choose optional Website Care.

Good to know

Reviews, approvals and you.

Q

How involved do I need to be?

Most of your time goes into the discovery conversation and the review points. We’ll tell you exactly when we need your input and what we need.

Q

What if I don’t have content ready?

That’s common. We’ll help you plan what each page needs, and can advise on copy and imagery during the design stage.

Q

How long does a project take?

It depends on scope. Your proposal will include a realistic timeline for your specific project.

Q

What happens after launch?

The site is yours. You can manage it yourself, or choose optional Website Care for ongoing updates and support.
