Web Design and e-commerce Development

Overview: Web Design & Development

InfoGate offers web design for individuals and professional clients. You really can have a dedicated design team to creating the image you wish to project within your budget and time line. InfoGate invites you to look at a sample of our site designs to evaluate our capabilities.

At InfoGate we pride ourselves in our ability to redesign or customize a new web site that addresses your company's needs and concerns. InfoGate also prides itself in explaining the web development process and realistically defining the expectations in having a web presence. InfoGate insists that a well-defined strategy be established prior to the actual construction.

Developing an Action Plan

The most important item in web development is to develop a plan of action. This plan is a proactive approach to insure that the impact your company wishes to make on your target audience as well as current clients takes place. By proactive, we mean that we not only focus on your company's relevant needs but to insure that the site reflects the direction of where the web is going. Doing business on the web is very different than having a retail storefront. We want you to understand the risk and to have realistic expectations in your investment. A website is a huge investment in time, and planning.

About the Process

What is the process to begin? It is simple:

First of all, an on site consultation at your place of business is conducted. It is here that we discuss the goals, both long and short term, for your web site and its audience. We explain what to expect and can give you an overview of costs including a strategy for future updating and maintenance services.
Upon this initial meeting a proposal for you to review and revise is submitted until we reach agreeable terms.
Upon accepting the proposal a "Service Agreement" is signed and collection of a 50% deposit plus the necessary registration fees is issued.
InfoGate then registers the selected domain name, if you haven't already done this yourself. Additionally, the site (domain) is setup at our own server or the server of your choice.
The information that will be needed, collecting graphics, text, video footage, etc., any information that pertains to the web site development needs to be collected.
The collection of the needed information is the beginning of the design and development process. As the web site develops we setup a directory called www.yourcompany.com/testing, so you can view and critic the progress.
Upon the site completion, the final payment for our development services is made.

A web project is exciting, and we want you to be totally involved. If your time is limited and want very little interaction then just sit back and relax. InfoGate will make this development process as painless as possible for you. The following link will enable you to view and familiarize yourself with the professionalism we can bring to you.
