I really just want a web presence showing what our business does and can do. It must have a contact form... Oh, and placed on the first page of Google!
We don't grab a template then fit your business around it. DP Web Design creates websites as unique as your business. Our design for your website is guided by existing logos, company themes or style guides. If you don't have this then we're here to give your business some style. the design layout is usually selected by the client & developer then company logo, colours & images are added to give your site an original look.
The home page will summarise your business, showing key points of interest to your users incorporating call to action buttons and links to engage your customers. The feature/hero banner can be static or include motion such as sliding and fading etc. Either way a feature banner will summarise the key points of your business.
When creating your website it's best to use personalised professional images to connect your customers with you and your business. Sometimes this isn't possible so it's good to use specially selected stock images. We can supply you with fully licenced stock images for your website.
We don't set rules about page numbers, but naturally if your wanting hundreds of pages we'll talk further about pricing. We say 5 to 10 pages because this is usually enough to represent most small businesses. Some of these page examples are usually Home, About Us, Services, Clients, Contact Us, etc. The value of having a multi page website as opposed to a one page website is more content, more pages, more headings & metadata, these are all things Google loves, "Content is King!".
NOTE: Higher content sites can increase the base build price.
Naturally we'll add your page content and images, we can supply stock images at no extra charge and if you're not a wordsmith we can put you on to a good copywriter.
This is a simple contact form or call to action form. This usually includes the following fields (name, email, subject & message, or something similar). All forms use Google reCAPTCHA to stop spamming, with email receipts sent to you & your client while also being stored on your website for later review.
Site content can be easily managed using a simple click, drag & drop page builder system (YOOtheme PRO).
NOTE: Support packages are also available if you would like us to fully manage your site.
Keyword refinement consists of adding keywords/phrases & description to meta tags, using best SEO practices for titles, menus, images etc. (You get us started with some keywords & phrases that best represent your business and we'll help you refine them)
NOTE: this is not a 1st page ranking guarantee as that is a dedicated SEO service.
If you have social pages then we'll link your website to them all.
Your website will be fully mobile/tablet responsive, multi browser compatible development to work seamlessly on all devices from desktop down to mobile screen sizes.
We'll setup your Google Analytics and Search Console and tie it into your website for when you're ready to dive into website SEO or Adwords. If you already have this we'll add the correct code into your site. This also includes Facebook Pixel and any other tracking codes.
We won't just dump a website on you and leave you with no understanding on how to edit it. If you want to be proactive with your site editing then we can supply you with help documents & guides to make the process as easy as possible.
If you're using our hosting or another service then we'll make sure your hosting environment is configured to best run your site.
Click on the links to the right to see past client's Base Build Website.
*Base Build with Extra Content: This is as it sounds, a standard website build but the site page content was extensive so it added to the overall cost. The extra cost can range from $100 and up depending on the amount and formatting complexity.

Ultimately, you can have as many pages as you want and if you're building a learning based website then talk to us about your ideas.
