Columbus Website Design

Website design: the process of planning and creating a website

Have you tried to create a website on your own?

Whether you need web design services in Columbus or nationally, TekMiss can help!

Are you frustrated working with a “free” website tool?
(It’s not as easy as “they” make it sound is it?)

Are you embarrassed every time someone asks you “do you have a website?”

Have you had someone you know create a website for you?

( husband, wife, niece, nephew, son, daughter’s friend, daughter, student at church, new kid on the block, pastor’s kid, friend’s friend)

I’ve heard it all! What a nightmare this becomes when the person doing you “the favor” moves or gets a job… You may have been waiting for months but can’t push because they’re doing it for “free!”)

Stop the insanity!

Here’s the process of a successful website:

1. Contract: All projects start with a contract so there are NO surprises!

2. Strategy: Together we’ll define your audiences and your outcomes. Everyone has specific reasons for updating or creating a website beyond just “having a website.”

3. Website Design: TekMiss will recommend a design (or set of designs) that you approve.

4. Content: TekMiss will create a worksheet for the content needed. Together we’ll create determine where all of the text, images, videos, etc. will come from.

5. Creation: Your website design will be created online so you can see the work in progress.

6. Hosting: Most websites are hosted where you have registered your domain name (i.e. GoDaddy, BlueHost). If you have not registered your domain name, TekMiss will help you do that and set up the hosting with your complete cooperation (no surprises!)

7. Training: TekMiss provides training so you can manage (add, edit and delete) your website.

Launch!! Woo hoo!

Now you’re excited and PROUD to announce this to the world! It’s fun to get up every day and know that this GIANT FORM OF ADVERTISING is backing you up 24/7!

How long does the process take?

Of course every website is different!

Consider building houses… or landscaping – it’s nearly impossible to throw out timeline without knowing all the details. However, most small business and entrepreneurial websites take a minimum of 30 – 60 days. And this timeline is possible provided that you’re a good communicator as the project progresses and are able to provide the content necessary.
