Web Site Design

MyWebDept.com knows how to design web sites. A design is more than just layout and colors. The purpose of your site is taken into consideration when developing your web site's design. A different design is called for if the goal is to attract customers versus entertain visitors. Our expert design team will create a design that helps you attract and retain visitors.

Designed to Sell	Designed to Inspire

How It Works

It all starts with a discussion about your goals and objectives for your web site. You will meet with a designer and in some cases a web site marketer as well. Your goals and objectives will be outlined. Your color and layout preferences will be discussed and you'll take a look at some other web sites.

Next our designer will take what was gathered from the meeting and the content that will be on your web site and will create 1 or 2 design mockups. You can then review the mockups and provide input on what the final site should look like. With that feedback our designer will finalize your design.

Pricing

Custom web site design typically ranges from $800 to $2400 depending on the amount of creative work required. Although custom designs are the most effective way to reach the goals you set for your web site, we also offer a lower cost option where you can choose a ready-made template design. These designs are well made, attractive, and easy to customize to with your logo and color selections.

Web Site Development

An interactive web site will retain visitors longer than a static web site. To make a truly interactive and personalized web site you need a good development team. MyWebDept.com offers web site development services for any size company or budget. Whether it be a simple contact form or a complex database driven application MyWebDept.com can do the job.

Web Site Maintenance

Keeping your web site updated with fresh content is important for many reasons. It keeps your visitors returning to your site. It also tells the search engines that your site is active and has up to date content. A good rule of thumb is to update your web site about as often as you'd expect a visitor to return to your site.

MyWebDept offers a range of maintenance plans to help you keep your site current and search engine friendly.

Maintenance plans can be paid for in advance, charged to a credit card, or billed monthly over the course of the year.

Web Site Content Writing

Good content is at least as important, if not more important, than your site's design. MyWebDept content writers can help you gather, dictate, write, and/or proof read your web site's content. We can make this sometimes daunting task manageable and with a successful end result.

Content writing services are typically billed on an hourly basis. Most web sites require about 1 hour of content writing per page, sometimes more if the page requires a lot of content.

Flash Development

Although we do not recommend using Flash to develop your entire site, we do think that there are many good uses for Flash content on your web site. MyWebDept can help you create Flash elements that ADD to your site and don't distract from the purpose of the site. Two good examples are Casa Bay Villas and Mansfield Self Storage. Casa Bay Villas uses Flash to inspire visitors to book vacations in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Mansfield Self Storage uses Flash to provide visitors with a virtual tour of their property, which is extremely clean and spacious.

Web Video

Flash video is excellent for the web because it can be placed anywhere on a web page and doesn't require timely download. Also, over 98% of all web users have the Flash player installed so you don't need to worry about users having to download special software just to watch your video.

Flash video is also relatively inexpensive to produce. It is much less expensive than producing TV commercials and it can get many times more views than a TV commercial.

Flash video is excellent for product demonstrations, infomercials, training sessions, recorded team meetings, video company handbooks, and much much more. Contact our video sales department to learn more about how Flash Video can help you communicate your message.

Search Engine Optimization

Getting found on the Internet today is much different than it was just two years ago. MyWebDept can help you optimize your site for search engines. The process involves looking at your content, design, and meta tags as well as looking at your competition on the web.

Not all business web sites need search engine optimization services. MyWebDept can help you determine if you need SEO and, if so, what type and how much services you need. We won't sell you something you don't need.

Online/Offline Branding

It is not always obvious to new web site owners that their online branding should be consistent with their offline branding. Your web site should look and feel like you business cards, brochures, signs, and other materials. MyWebDept.com and Laubacher Multimedia can help you keep that consistent look/feel across all of your marketing materials.
