Our goal is to understand what your brand is, what it can do, and what it can be. Our approach to the design process ensures that we are able to fully master your visual language, thereby guaranteeing a successful interaction between our team and you, the client.

From our experience, the more involved our client is during the development process, the greater the likelihood that the resulting web site will achieve its objectives. The following process have been designed to involve you at every stage, from initial planning, through to testing and final deployment. It’s a partnership between your knowledge of your business and our knowledge of how the web works.

Smart project definition - right from the outset, objectives and desired reactions from your online corporate portal enterprise are carefully defined (thus helping to determine an appropriate corporate internet branding strategy)

Prototyping - once we have agreed the specification at the planning stage we will then create the initial designs/visuals of your web site. You can expect to see us come back to you with an initial design proof - ready for your input and final pre-production approval - within a short space of time.

Creation and Development - when you're happy with what you see, we get technical. We will develop your content management system. Beginning with the website structure including components and modules. Your approval is sought as we go along. We will make any amendments required to ensure you are fully happy with the look, feel and design elements used.

Final Testing - the website will be fully tested for before it goes live. All links and pages will be checked. You will also be able to go through the website and we will be able to make any final alterations. This is also when training will be given to you to learn how to use it.

Deployment - the site will be uploaded to your website host and will be accessible via your web address. If we are hosting your website we will provide you with access to statistics so that you can monitor your site usage.

Review - after a three or six month period, we will meet with you again to assess the performance of your site in terms of meeting the objectives set out at the beginning of this process.

We specialize in developing powerful and simple websites leveraging available Open Source solutions. We have learned, understand and develop these open source solutions to fit our clients needs.

Using Open Source solutions save you time and money by reducing the need for custom programming. Open Source solutions provide a higher Return on Investment (RoI) for Internet web sites. You can take advantage of a wide range of functionality and flexibility to present the most effective web experience for your users.

If an Open Source solution does not fit the function required by our client we will provide a custom built solution to address all the defined functionality.

Our primary platform of choice is the Joomla CMS. This core functionality includes article management, extendability with custom components and bridges to other popular products like discussion forums, galleries and classified ad systems. Joomla allows us to provide the most robust content management solution for our customers as well as completely customized public interfaces.

We have also built websites using Zencart shopping cart, Mambo OS CMS, phpBB Forums and PHPNuke to name a few.
