The Building Of A Professional Looking WebSite

I developed this page in an effort to give you some insight into the process for the building of a professional looking website and why your costs to build a custom website design can skyrocket if you are unable or unwilling to develop your own website content. We will gladly do your research and copy for you, but remember that you are the expert in the field and who knows your business better than you!

The client BeamofBarrie.com was in need of a site to showcase his retail location. He wanted us to do the website development and content for the site

The Client's Needs

The client was looking for an informational website on his products with the following requirements:

  • Contact page needed to have a map

  • He wanted to offer a discount for internet users so he could track how many inquiries he was receiving from the internet

  • The client did not supply any form of photos etc to use on the site. All photos were researched by KISS

What The Client Supplied To KISS

  • A number of brochures on his products

  • The url of his suppliers main pages

  • The client surfed a number of sites until he found a colour scheme he liked

  • The client researched his domain name and came up with a name he believed most beneficial for his business

     

The Planning & Building Of The Web Site

The following is a brief summary of the process involved in getting this site online

  • Kiss proceeded to register the domain with IPOWER  The client chose the password he would like to use and the security question. This would be changed once the site is live so Kiss would no longer have access to his web hosting account

  • Kiss proceeded to draw up a plan of the pages we thought were important to have on the site

  • Kiss proceeded to generate a Keyword Excel File based on the main keywords supplied by the client

  • We then proceeded to spend days surfing and researching his products. We reviewed sites from across Canada, United States, United Kingdom and Europe. We were looking for what his fellow franchisees were using to promote the products and the information etc. that his competition was making available on the net.

  • The outcome was a total of nearly 35 rough draft pages that now needed to be complied, re-written into approximately 10 pages for the site. (We ended up with 11 pages which included a Contact page and Links page)

  • The pages were reviewed for Search Engine optimization based on structure and keyword content for each page

  • The client reviewed the site and we made the necessary changes to the pages.

  • The site was upload to the client's hosting account and was now "live"

  • An xml site map for the robots (Google & Yahoo in particular) was generated and uploaded. This map was also submitted to Ask.com

  • Client registered with Google and Yahoo for site verification and submission of the xml sitemap.

  • A robots.txt file for the search engines was generated and uploaded to the site. This file contained his link to his xml sitemap

  • We manually submitted the site to a number of top rated search engines (the only ones that count actually) -  Ask, MSN, Google and Yahoo

Cost For The New Web Site

  • The client has an 11 page web site @ $50.00

550.00

  • Domain Name - Web Hosting 1 Year

60.00

  • Cost for research and web copy

1850.00
