Below is each phase of the development process

Initial Consultation
The first step is to contact Outside-studio.com. You can send a brief email describing your project or submit a more detailed quote request. The initial consultation is free of charge, and typically takes 30 minutes to one hour. The consultation will allow you to judge the capabilities and experience of our company for yourself, and for the designer to get a feel for the content and scope of your project.

Design Brief
As with any project, planning is crucial to success. After the initial consultation you will be provided with the Design Brief, which contains a series of questions to determine the scope, strategy, budget and specifications of your web design project. The more detail you can provide the better, since the proposal will be based on the information you provide. There may be a few follow-up questions after the Design Brief has been returned, requesting additional information or perhaps clarification.

Proposal
Once the Design Brief has been completed and returned a Web Site Development Proposal will be put together for you. The proposal typically takes a few days to a week to complete, although sometimes longer for more complex projects. It will contain the final project specifications and features, layout, development cost and estimated completion date.

Project Acceptance
After you have had a chance to review the proposal and any necessary adjustments are made, you will have the opportunity to accept the proposal and submit your content material and deposit.

Work Begins!
Once the content material and deposit have been received work commences. You will be kept informed of progress at all times, so that you may provide feedback at the various stages of site development. The new site will be placed in a private server area so that you can access the site and monitor the development process.

Beta Testing
While testing is performed during all stages of development, as the project nears completion the site undergoes beta testing by both you and the designers. Database functionality, order processing, site navigation, etc. will be tested to ensure they meet the project specs and for the highest quality final release.

Project Completion
Once beta testing is completed and you're satisfied the project requirements have been met (or exceeded!) the project is considered completed and made "live".

EBusiness/ECommerce Enablement - is about more than adding a shopping cart and taking credit card numbers on your website. More often it involves using the Internet to improve communications and processes involving customers, employees and suppliers. Through the customization and implementation of appropriate technology and intelligent online forms design, we assist companies in gathering, storing, retrieving, reconfiguring, sharing and making use of information.

Why have an Internet web site developed?

With the arrival of the Internet the face of commerce has taken on a new look. Information and convenience are not luxuries for consumers, but rather expectations. Being able to find detailed information regarding a product and/or company, and the ability to make instant purchases from the comfort of their own homes has become a major factor in the consumer's purchasing decision. A good web page is your sales agent working for you 24 hours per day. It shows that you are at the cutting edge of technology. No matter what your business is you can't ignore the approximate 70 million people that have access to the Internet. Why should you be on the Internet? Because your competitors are.


An attractive site doesn't need to overwhelm a visitor with every color of the rainbow and an exuberant amount of animated images to try to draw your attention. Web design has come a long way with special effects and other interesting tricks, but sometimes doing without those extras makes your site easier on the eyes and easier to navigate. For example - if you're selling real estate, you want the houses your selling to stand out more than the brightly colored text or navigation buttons. If you're offering balloons and party supplies, than a broader pallet of colors and images are suitable. You can be assured that we will help you determine the best way to go according to your business needs.

 

 
 
Strategy
.................................................
 
 

User-Friendly Interface
Your web site will be designed to be easy to navigate and to provide superior readability. Streamlined navigation, site search functions where appropriate and a clean, crisp design. As much as possible the "three click rule" will be adhered to - visitors should have to click no more than three times to reach the content they're looking for, drop the item in their shopping cart, etc.

 
  ..................................  
  Search Engine Optimization
Having a great web site isn't enough - it must be found. Most people find web sites via the major search engines and directories by typing in a keyword or phrase. Which sites appear in the search results depend on how that particular search engine ranks pages. Certain techniques can be used during the web site development process to help attain high rankings on pre-selected keywords. tion.
 
  .................................  
  Privacy Policy
Every web site should have a privacy policy explaining to site visitors how their information will be used. Your web site will have a privacy policy as part of the design package, which can be modified to suit your needs.
 
  .................................  
  Web Site Backups
Outside-Studio.com will maintain a backup of all web site content developed here. In the unlikely event files are lost or damaged IAS can restore them quickly.
 
  .................................  
  Database integration
Whether you need to update your inventory, prices, phone numbers or any data at all, we will custom design a site with your own password protected pages to very easily change your information in real time, from any Web browser.
 
  .................................  
  Periodic Updates
We can also arrange to make weekly, bi-weekly or monthly changes to your site on a regular basis, completely relieving you of that burden. After all, we know you've got better things to do.
 
  .................................  
  You Own The Site
Some web site designers retain ownership of your web site even after it's completed and paid for. Not so with outside-studio. At the completion of the project all copyrights and site ownership will be transferred to your company. A CD-ROM or diskette containing your web site files will be sent to you upon request.
