The step-by-step guide shown below outlines our professional working practices that ensure we achieve original and cost effective web solutions for our clients.

Step 1: Consultation

The first step is to examine your overall business objectives and understand your requirements. We will conduct a no-obligation consultation at either your premises or our offices in Leicester.

1st WebDesigns strongly believe that your online strategy should be well thought out with ideas comprised to provide the maximum return on investment.

During step 1 we aim to gain an understanding of your business, your market and your long-term online aims.

Step 2: Proposal

Following the consultation process we will provide you with a detailed set of proposals outlining our understanding of your requirements, recommended solutions, timescales and costs.

Step 3: Specification

The next step is to produce a technical specification. This covers all elements of the project in detail, expanding upon the original proposal and setting out the plans for our design team to follow.

Step 4: Implementation

The implementation stage involves converting the proposal and specification into a real 'product.'

At this stage you will be assigned a Project Manager who will co-ordinate the work and arrange regular meetings to keep you informed of our progress.

We will also adhere to standard criteria in order to deliver the project on time, within budget and to ensure that we meet your expectations.

Step 5: Testing

Before the launch of the project we carry out a series of quality assurance procedures to ensure that the end product is functional, usable, robust and accurate.

Step 6: Documentation & Training

The project would be documented in order to improve the speed and efficiency of future updates. 1st WebDesigns can provide your business with training and user manuals if required.

Step 7: Launch

The end product is launched.

Step 8: Evaluation & Marketing

Following the launch of the project, we are able to evaluate the working processes in order to identify any issues not covered in the previous steps.

Together, we would then be able to develop long-term marketing strategies to ensure the finished product's continued success.
