Website Strategy Creation
When creating or refreshing your firm’s website, knowing where to start can be tough. We begin with a strategy session to discuss your goals and firm, giving us the insight to effectively communicate your value and differentiators.
We’ll assess your brand to propose a color palette and photos. Finally, we’ll consider your clients’ needs to identify key functions and build a sitemap.
Technical Setup and Hosting
Choosing a website management platform can be overwhelming if you’re not familiar with web development. Based on your firm’s strategy, we’ll help you determine the best platform for your goals.
We’ll also advise on hosting options. Before launch, our experienced developers will run rigorous tests to ensure your website is technically sound, so you won’t have to worry.
Website Content Development
Your firm’s website needs more than good looks; its content should compel visitors to keep clicking. After a comprehensive content audit, our copywriters will collaborate with your team to edit or rewrite website language in your tone and voice.
Once you approve the content, we add links and check layout and formatting for consistency. Before launch, we conduct a final review to ensure everything is properly formatted and aligned.
Search Engine Optimization (SEO)
A professionally developed website enhances online visibility. Our SEO experts optimize your content with strategic keywords during development.
We also create meta tags and descriptions to ensure your site displays correctly on all devices and ranks highly on Google. Additionally, we monitor performance metrics to continually refine and improve your site’s SEO effectiveness.
