For ecommerce sites, product files are usually provided in Excel spreadsheets but talk to us about the options for automated product importing.  For pictures, the most common files are .png, .jpg. For your signature shots that go full width, we need a picture that is approximately 2000 pixels wide. If you have a large number of photos or elements, typically clients create a Dropbox folder, with folders for each page or category.  For text, a Word document is fine.  Logos – ideally a high resolution .eps or .ai file or if you don’t have these, we can work with PDF’s – for a small charge we can also redraw your logo if you can’t find the original.  And yes, we can split images and text from PDF’s if you have them as brochures

A landing page is an entry page for your website that is usually created for a specific Google Ads campaign, marketing email, or seo.  Landing pages typically have one specific theme and include a call to action or enquiry form to capture contact details.

A typical web site will take six to eight weeks. Ecommerce sites can be fast if it’s say a trade site to load content, or take longer if there are integrations to be done with inventory or accounting software. One-page websites can be done in two weeks. The most common delay is when the client is writing content or loading content. Fitting this in around normal activities requires focus and commitment!

We will show you a checklist of page types and functionality to help determine project scope.  If you are doing SEO, then the keyword analysis often yields sensible ideas for product pages that can be incorporated into your menu.

A mobile responsive website resizes for small screens, based off your existing desk-top website.  A mobile-first site is designed first and foremost for a good user-experience on a mobile phone, with shorter, succinct content, larger buttons and quick navigation to get you to the key content in three clicks.

No problem. Once we determine how many pages need copywriting, we can include this in the estimate, and work with you to develop a brief.

We can build in time to hunt for images in stock photo libraries, organize a photo shoot, or use graphics/illustrations instead.
