Our Website Design & Development Process

CRAFTING YOUR ONLINE PRESENCE TO BE AN ASSET THAT GENERATES LASTING GROWTH

CREATING THE FOUNDATION OF YOUR ONLINE PRESENCE

It’s no secret that your website is one of the most important areas of your online presence. It is the 24/7 salesman your potential clients are talking to when deciding to use you or your competitors. This is before they have contacted you or are trying to decide between you and someone else.

We carefully craft every single web page to engage and influence website visitors to take action. We value taking complete responsibility for crafting more than just a digital presence. We create an asset in the business that drives tangible growth.

OUR COMPREHENSIVE WEBSITE BUILDING PROCESS

Kickoff
Meeting

Step into our digital den as we roll out the red carpet for your project. Our Kickoff meeting isn't just about handshakes and hellos—it's about vision, ambition, and crafting a roadmap. Once we understand your goals and gather your brand assets—images, content, aspirations—we have our roadmap to start crafting your website.

Crafting the
Homepage

Consider this the opening act of your brand's symphony. At Black Lion Digital, we know every brand is unique, which is why template pages never quite fit. Instead, we craft a homepage that's as bespoke as a tailored suit. Once we craft your custom home page, we work together to fine-tune it to perfection. This isn't just a homepage; it's your brand's first impression.

Deep Dive into
Design and Copy

This is where our creativity transforms into reality. We have taken all the ingredients of your brand, our deep market analysis and our proven optimisations to craft the rest of your website. This is more than just bringing design to life; it will be strategically created with a great user experience with SEO-optimised copy that speaks the language of your ideal client.

Website
Development

It's like building a skyscraper—brick by digital brick. Once you nod in approval of our designs, we transition from architects to builders. Our development phase isn't just about constructing; it's about finessing. On our collaborative staging site, your feedback guides our tweaks, ensuring the final masterpiece stands tall and unshakable.

How much does a website cost?

We believe that a website is an investment that delivers a return not a cost. We also understand that every business has a budget and needs. Because a website can range from 1 page to hundreds we can’t give you a price. Everything we do is custom designed to deliver the best result for your business.
If you are looking for a cheap, templated website that will need to be replaced in a couple of years then we aren’t the right fit.

If you want to create an online asset that not just looks amazing but generates more revenue for your business, then we are the partner.

How long does it take to build a website

There is no straight answer to this as it depends on how big the website is. To give you a guide for our team to write, design, develop and test a new website from scratch it is roughly 10-12 weeks.

You can pay extra for express but is still limited to maintain the quality of the result.

What is included in the website development process?

Here is a brief description of the stages of building you a new website from scratch

  1. Kick-Off meeting - This is where your web team will get to know the business and outcomes of the project
  2. Design Mock-Ups - Our graphic designers will create mock-ups of the web pages for you to give us your feedback
  3. Copy - Either supplied by you or written by our talented copywriting team is created and added to the designs
  4. Development - Once design and copy is approved we build your website on a staging platform and send for final approval
  5. Testing and optmisations - We make any final changes and take the website live and complete our post live checks for optimal performance
  6. Training - We deliver a training session on how to maintain your website. We are always here to help but you aren’t handcuffed to a custom coded site that you have to pay to make even small changes.
Can you design and develop a mobile-responsive website?

70-80% of visitors to your website will be on a mobile device. We always make sure every website is responsive for mobile, tablet and desktop.

Do you offer ongoing support after the website is launched?

Yes. We can offer really fast hosting and have web care plans if you need someone to maintain your website.

We also have a free 60 day warranty included in every website we build to give you peace of mind.

Can you provide examples of websites you have developed in the past?

Yes, visit our portfolio page here.

Can you accommodate any custom features or functionalities I need?

Yes, We don’t create template websites. We learn and understand what your business needs and build the ideal result for your business.

How do you approach search engine optimisation (SEO) for my website?

We approach every website with the following approach to ensure that your SEO standings will only improve after you create a new website

  1. Keyword research: We conduct thorough keyword research to understand the relevant keywords and phrases related to your business and target audience.
  2. On-page optimisation: We optimise the content and structure of your website to align with your target keywords, including titles, meta descriptions, headers, and images.
  3. Technical SEO: We ensure your website is technically sound to make it easy for search engines to crawl and index your pages.
  4. Content creation: We help create high-quality, engaging, and informative content that's optimised for your target keywords

If SEO is highly important to you, ask about our ongoing SEO packages to pair with the website

What is your payment process and terms of service?

We split the website into 2 payments. 50% before we start the project and 50% just before it goes live.

Do you offer any kind of warranty once it is built?

Yes. Once the website goes live we enable our 60 day warranty. This means we will fix any technical issues with the website besides you going in and purposely breaking it.
