Design

The sites design will be determined by the design elements, corporate ID parameters and layout concepts developed for the client.

About the Design Process

We provide an inclusive design process where our clients provide feedback at each stage. We provide layout options and then focus on a direction based on the clients decisions. Iterations are produced and the design is only signed off on when the client is happy with the result.

Content Management System

Elements such as “NEWS” or “JOB LISTINGS” require a Content Management Portal to allow the client to login and make updates as required. This means the client can make basic adjustment to the site when they require without employing the services of a Web Developer.

There are a number of different options depending on the volume / frequency of the updates the client will be making.

Note : it may also be possible to link into existing listings or news feeds if they exist. Cost€™s the same to set up but saves double handling for the client. Content updates can also be provided as required by the client for a fee on each occasion.

Site structure

A sitemap will be developed in consultation with the client. Our final estimate will take into consideration the amount of content.
