A lot goes on behind the scenes when
designing and developing a great web site. With all the new HTML
conversion programs out there, we though it would be helpful to talk a bit
about what we do, and what you pay for, above and beyond taking your text
and coding it into HTML.
Websites designed by
LakeNet Communications vary greatly depending on difficulty and
content of site. For a price quote email

want.
Architecture/Content Development
Deciding what information to
present and how to organize the information to best meet your visitor's
needs is the actual brain work behind how the site will work and what will
make your business successful on the Internet. A quality design with
pertinent content provides smooth navigation, an interesting experience
for the visitor, and room for future growth.
Page Layout Design
The look and feel of all pages subsequent to the
home page is just as important as the home page. The careful coordination
of graphics and type styles will tie all areas of the site together for a
professional, smooth presentation.
Content Management
Perhaps one of the more important
aspects of the project is deciding what to say and where and how to say
it. Unlike other aspects of production where you can let out your breath
and say "I'm done", content management never stops. You must constantly
appeal to your audience with fresh and interesting information. Done
properly, your web site will be easily updated, keeping the content new
and your visitors interested.
Copywriting And Proofing
Utilizing professional editors and
copywriters to create and streamline your online content helps make your
presentation professional and easy to read in this media. Typically,
companies use their in-house talent, but
LakeNet Communications offers quality
copywriting and editing services if you do not have adequate resources.
Page And Graphic Layout
Presenting a layout on the web presents
particular challenges, but it is very similar to the production of a
printed catalog or brochure, where the graphic elements, images, and text
are placed for the most effective artistic presentation.
Graphic Production
Taking existing artwork, photography,
animation, and video and optimizing it for online publishing.
Technology / Custom Programming
Utilizing programming languages such as
Perl,
CGI, and Java, to give interactivity and flexibility to the
project. This can range from a simple response form to a full blown
e-commerce area.
Promotion & Marketing
There are many reasons and ways to
promote your web site. Depending on the nature of your business, whether
you need an online corporate presence or you wish to launch your business
from the web,
LakeNet Communications can help focus on your particular business need and
prepare your promotion and marketing strategies.
