Risk-Free Web Designs – Try Before You Buy

Choosing a web designer is a critical decision. Your web site is a window into your business, and many people will decide whether to give you their hard-earned money based on the impression they get from your site. But what happens if you choose a web designer who can’t seem to portray the right personality for your particular business? To eliminate the risk of getting stuck with a site that “just doesn’t feel right”, Community Communications has introduced a Try Before You Buy program. We will work with you to create a free mock-up of your home page that you can review before you make your purchasing decision. If the design isn’t coming together the way you like, you can simply decline to move forward.

Development Process

Developing a great web site requires a collaborative effort. Here are the steps you can expect to go through:

1. Business requirements. The first step is for us to learn about your business so that we can effectively put ourselves in the shoes of your customers. We will meet with you for an initial consultation.

2. Structural definition. Next step is to define the menu choices and a rough outline of the content.

3. Mock up. We will create a graphic rendition of your site. You will provide feedback and we will revise the design until you are satisfied.

4. Project approval. At this stage you decide whether to commit to Community Communications as your web site designer. Until this point you have paid nothing and have no obligations.

5. Content. We convert the mock-up to HTML and start inputting your content. You can send us content in an email or a Word document.

6. Project completion. We revise the site until you are satisfied.

7. Hosting (optional). We can host your web site or transfer it to another hosting company. Out hosting rates are priced to be affordable for small businesses.

8. Maintenance (optional). We can teach you to make simple changes to the site. Alternatively you can hire us to make changes at an hourly rate.
