One Agency for Every Marketing Need -- Strategy, Design, Web & More.

Website Development Process 
A clear process keeps your website project moving smoothly. At Xclaim Agency, we guide each project through design, content, programming, and final quality control so you always know what stage your site is in and what comes next. 

Your feedback is part of the process. We’ll handle the design and development work, while using your goals, ideas, content, and input to create a website that represents your business clearly and professionally.

Creative Design Phase
Once we receive your signed contract, we begin creating your custom home page design concept.

 In most cases, your initial design concept is ready within 3 to 5 business days. You’ll review the design and provide feedback. We’ll make revisions as needed until you are comfortable with the direction. 

This review and approval process typically takes 1 to 7 days, depending on the amount and speed of feedback.

 Once you approve the home page concept, we’ll ask you to sign a Preview Acceptance Agreement. This gives us approval to move forward with the internal pages of your website based on the approved design direction.

Internal page design usually takes 3 to 5 business days.

 Each internal page will follow the approved design style while still having its own page title, visual cues, and custom header treatment when appropriate. This helps visitors quickly understand where they are on the site and gives each page a more polished, personalized feel.

Content Development Phase
After the internal page layouts are created, we move into content development. 

This phase usually takes 5 to 10 days, depending on the amount of content needed and how quickly feedback is provided.

 If you already have an existing website, the most efficient approach is often to move your current content into the new design first. This allows you to review the copy in context and decide what should stay, change, expand, or be removed. 
During this phase, we refine page content, organize information, and make sure the site communicates clearly to your visitors.

Programming Development Phase

After your website completes the design and content development phases - we next add programming functionality to your website by developing and installing whatever programming modules you have purchased i.e.; Database Driven Feedback Forms, Online Store, Website Content Search Engine, Customer Login, Content Management functionality, etc., and/or any custom programming services for which you have contracted us to develop .

Up until this point you will be able to 'see' the development progress on your website at a special online preview URL during the Creative Design and Content Development phases as you work with your design services staff. Most programming functionality, however, is added 'behind the scenes' so you will not be able to 'see' much of this work until it is nearly complete which can take 1 to 4 weeks depending on the number and complexity of the modules being installed at which point all the programming modules will be brought 'online' for testing and Final QC.
