DESIGN & DEVELOPMENT
● Free Initial
Consultation
Croaking Frog Media offers a free initial consultation to clearly
establish the purpose for your website and to determine the projected cost.
Following the consultation, we will request an outline of the information that
you would like to have on your website. We have a Website Planning
Worksheet and a Website Content Worksheet to help
you through this process. This information can be submitted to us by mail,
email, or fax.
● Proposal Submission
Within one week of receiving and reviewing the material with you, we will
submit a written proposal to you. Our proposal will outline your project,
the recommended design, the fees involved, and the projected completion date.
Finishing each project on or before the projected date of completion is our
standard. Typically, web design and development takes two to four weeks,
depending on the complexity and size of the project. Upon approval of our
proposal, we require 50% of the total fee to be submitted and the final payment
to be made at the time of completion.
● Web Design and
Development
Immediately, following your approval, we will begin designing and developing
your website using the guidelines established. You will be able to follow
your website through the development process by viewing it live in a staging
area accessible by a unique user name and password provided to you. Any
comments, suggestions, or questions are welcome throughout the process.
Before publishing, each page will be inspected carefully for spelling and
grammar errors, link validity, and overall form and layout. The final
draft of your website will be previewed in a variety of browsers and with
various screen resolutions. Upon final approval and payment, your website
will be up and running!
● Website Maintenance
and Management
All websites require updating and maintenance to continue generating
interest and visitors and to maintain the edge of competitors. Optional
website management may be added to your website package. We will edit your
site (pricing, features, general information, etc.) and make recommendations for
future updates to keep your website current.
