Great websites are a creative collaboration between the client and the designer, bringing the client's understanding of the business together with the designer's knowledge and implementation of design, communication, and Web technologies. You are an integral part of the team as we work together towards the achievement of your Internet goals.

A good web site begins with a good design. The aesthetics of the design should convey a positive message about the business it represents. It should appeal to the eye and make customers want to stay and look for more information. The longer they stay, the more likely they will want to do business with you. Entoone Web Services will custom design your site from the viewpoint of your target customers.

Our approach to web design and web development usually follows a five step process:


During initial consultations, we'll listen to gather information about your business, its operations, and your goals for the Internet. We identify your target audience and discuss your ideas and preferences for the website, the functions you want, and the look and feel you are seeking.

We advise on Internet strategies and solutions and present a possible solution based on the scope of the project, budget, and time frame. At this point, the overall look of the project begins to take shape, and we will present a cost proposal.


If you are satisfied with the initial consultation and would like to proceed further, we will then progress to write a detailed specification. This specification will cover in depth exactly what you would like to achieve and exactly how it will be achieved. Along with the specification, we will present you with the exact cost and scheduling of the project. This means that as long as the specification remains unchanged, you will know what the project will cost and how long it will take to create.


Once the specification has been agreed upon, contracts are signed and we will start the development. We usually request that you pay half of the cost up front before we begin working on your project.

Based upon your input, the actual design of the website is begun. At this stage we ask you to provide us with any layout wishes you might have. If you want your site to match your existing promotion material, you will need to provide us with this. Tell us if you have any preferences for colors and design elements. At this stage in the process it can also be helpful if you provide us with links to any existing page on the web that you like and might want your own presentation to resemble.

We start by developing a screenshot image of the site. This is a draft/prototype sample of what the site might look like on a computer monitor. We send this picture to you for a review. At this point, you have the opportunity to tell us what you like and dislike about the design. We will rework/modify the design until it meets with your satisfaction.


Once we have agreed on the design, we will start the construction of the actual web page by adding functionality and text. Before we reach this stage, you will need to provide us with the text for the content of the pages. This can either be text you write specifically for the web site, or you can provide us with informational and promotional texts about your company, which we then will adapt for the web site. If you have no existing material written, we can also provide you with the text for the page. However, no one knows your business better than you, and we always encourage our customers to provide text to ensure an ideal result.


Once we have completed the site, we will upload it to a temporary web address where you can access and review it. You will get the opportunity to see the site in full function and make sure everything is working properly before we put the site live at the actual Internet address. At this stage, you can also point out minor details that you want to have changed.

When you are fully satisfied with the web site, we will collect the remaining fee, and then upload the site to its correct web address. We will then go through the process of registering your site with the major search engines, which increases its accessibility.
