ACKLIE WEB DESIGNS'
3 PHASE PROCESS
PHASE 1 - DETERMINE & DEFINE GOALS
The first step of any project is to discover, define and
clarify the goals and priorities. During this phase of our process
you tell us important initial information. There are many factors
and elements to consider, which includes:
- What kind of site you want
- How many pages
- Do you have a domain name
- Do you have a web host
- Budget
- Deadlines
- Photos, graphics, images, text
- Who your target audience is
- What results you expect from your site
After all of your goals have been articulated, we will develop
a plan for the site, detailed information on what pages will
be created. which will include the organization of information
and functionality. You will tell Acklie Web Designs which parts
of our concepts you like and don't like. At the end of this phase
we will have a blueprint for the entire site.
Upon your agreement to all terms up front, I will have you sign
a Letter of Agreement. I will then provide for you a contract
for the construction of your site. You will know what it will
cost, when the pages and site will be ready. Any additional work
added will be agreed upon before work is done.
Creating site includes: Develop, design & creating pages,
creating and implementing graphics, html work, text & graphics
layout, navigation & linking, scanning photos, optimizing
for web, uploading files to server, adding & implementing
elements as previously agreed to in Phase 1 including graphics
and adding photos. META tags (for search engines), submit site
to top search engines. Cost for Phase 2 is determined by facts
compiled in Phase I. Since each and every site is different,
unique and custom developed and designed, your site cost will
represent what needs to be done, how much work involved and what
time frame is involved. Phase 3 is the ongoing site maintennance
and enhancement.

PHASE 2 - PRODUCTION & IMPLEMENTATION
Now comes the fun part. The production & implementation
phase of the project is when Acklie Web Designs actually builds,
and develops your website based on information & materials
you provided during Phase 1. With our blueprint in hand, we coordinate
all of the elements you have provided needed to realize your
site and bring it to life.
Once you are satisfied with how your site looks, we will put
it online. Depending on your marketing strategy and our customized
agreement with you for your site, we will simultaneously begin
various promotional efforts (i.e., search engine registration
and on-line marketing)
PHASE 3 - SITE MAINTENANCE & ENHANCEMENT
Once your site is up & running, Acklie Web Designs offers
monthly, weekly or daily web site maintenance including updated
pages, new content, or special web offers, updating or adding
special events, employment opportunities, promotions, special
orders. We also suggest regular traffic analysis & verifying
external links. We will also help you analyze your web stats
so that you can fine tune your website to meet your initial goals,
check to see status of site with search engines, handle email
