Web sites do not “magically appear” on the Internet. Creating a web site requires more than using a web site template and filling in the blanks.
Web development, planning, and design is not the same for every company. That’s why it’s important to work with web developers that know the right questions to ask.
A good web development company or individual web designer / developer will sit down with you and discuss your web site as part of your business goals.
Web Design Questions
What have you thought about doing with your web site, or what have you seen business competitors do with their web site?
What type of design are you looking for?
Are you attempting to keep a consistent appearance between your business paper brochure or presentation material and your web site?
Web Design Considerations
Web developers should be concerned with several issues regarding your web site including:
JP Design creates web sites that are:
Professional, pleasing to the eye, elegant, and in tune with your corporate image
Simple to navigate
Easy to expand and update with new content
Unique, not a cookie-cutter design
Search-engine-friendly
Accessible
Does your web site template fulfill all of these goals?
Commonly used, “canned” web site templates, pre-constructed designs into which you can place your own content and images, are widely available and often used by businesses with low budgets for web site development.
But using common templates is risky. For example, if you use out-of-the-box, canned templates, it's possible that your web site could have the same design as another web site – maybe even one of your competitor's. Customization and proper functionality of the web site’s components depend on your skills and creativity.
Does your web site have a professional “look and feel”? Will your customers feel confident and secure about your products and services when they visit and conduct transactions on your web site? A web site with an amateur design can damage credibility – and your customers will find another site that gives them that sense of confidence.
