JB Systems, LLC has over 20 years of combined experience of putting together some of the best websites in the Eau Claire & Chippewa Valley area.
By combining our fine-tuned programming skills with our design savvy - you can expect a website from us that is not only aesthetically pleasing
but is technologically more advanced than what other firms are putting into the market place.
Below you will find a summary of our design process - start to finish. If you have any questions regarding how we approach our web
design projects, feel free to call.
After an initial consult, in which we gather information to finalize your proposal, the first phase of our design cycle is discovery.
We have developed a proprietary set questions to help gather information such as demographics, goals and desired outcomes for visitors to
the site, how the site can be incorporated into existing marketing strategies and more. This process is crucial as it sets the groundwork
for our design process. This phase requires two meetings, one with our design department to discuss all design and layout parameters and
another meeting with our content writer who takes on the hefty job of working with you to provide some of the best written copy for your
new website - of which he incorporates
Search Engine Optimization strategies.
This is our favorite phase - without question. Once we have established design guidelines and market information (as mentioned above), we harness
the design talent found at JB Systems and make it a company-wide goal to design a site that is superior in design and content to any competitor of
yours. Our design process includes completely unique, custom designed Adobe Photoshop ® prototype designs. We then allow you to review the design
directions and mix & match any elements from them. This is an awesome way
to approach the website design and is more thorough than the approach our competitors take.
Once we have established your design, the finished layout
gets sent to our Red Bull drinking, hot-pocket eating
programmers - who take the design and transform it into
a working XHTML compliant website. In addition, if your
website has features such as interactive photo galleries,
database-driven Frequently Asked Questions, or the like
- it is in this phase that they get programmed and tested.
JB Systems uses some of the latest and greatest technologies to build our websites, such as PHP 5, MySQL 5, Ajax, JavaScript, Adobe Flash, Adobe
Flex, and more.
After the entire website has been completely laid out, we take the necessary time to test the website in various browser environments (IE 7,
IE 8, Firefox 2, Firefox 3, Chrome, Safari, Webkit, etc). All pages are reviewed by our staff members and nit picky changes may be
made to tighten the overall appearance. This process is documented and repeats in full circle until no more suggestions
can be made. It is after this point that we schedule a final review of the website with you, and pre-plan our website launch.
With careful planning, we will work with your existing domain name registrar (or we will purchase a domain name for you) and will setup all
pertinent account information such as directory permissions, email address, SPAM settings, and the like. Once those settings are in place, we
schedule the transfer and take the site live. With the website up and running, the new exposure on the web will surely open new doors and
opportunities for your business - all from people that normally wouldn't have found you as they surfed the web for your
particular product or service.
Answer: Never! Even though your new website is done and ready for all to see and explore, we're never truly done working with our customers. The
project may be finished - but our job never is. The web is ever-expanding, with new technologies and strategies emerging each month. It's our job
to keep you informed of them. Many clients like to have updates done after the website has been live for awhile, others may be interested in our
Search Engine Optimization services, and other clients may like to
see some "Flash" components or even live video added to their websites. In addition, it is company policy to check in with you from time to
time to schedule a Website Review or let you know about your stats.
