Client-Designer Relationship
If it sounds like it's a pretty big deal to get a web site developed, that’s because it is. Many sites, of course, are perfectly suited to small, static, simple pages. We have found that the client-designer relationship, even on small sites, is much less fraught with anxiety and hard feelings if everyone is clear about everything from the get-go. Here are a few points for your consideration:
|

|
You may want to take the time to understand the development process and ask questions when you don’t. |
 |
The client is part of the process. You should carefully review and respond to work done. |
 |
If you are providing text and photographs to use in your site, make sure you have carefully selected, edited, and proofread your content beforehand. |
|
|
|
 |
Be prepared to learn about what can and cannot be accomplished with the
web. The differences between print and web design are huge. |
 |
Various features may need to be implemented in order to build your site appropriately. An online
catalogue, for instance, needs database integration, special design, and also a specialized programmer. |
 |
Let's put it in writing. If it ever becomes necessary to mediate an issue, you won’t have to argue about what you said and what we said and what everyone thought everyone else actually meant. |
If you haven’t seen exactly what you envision for your site in our portfolio samples, we may still be more than capable of doing what you need. We pay attention to detail. We will try to “get” your concept and, perhaps most importantly, we know what the word “usability” means (We’ll be happy to inform you if you don’t know).
Thanks for dropping by. We look forward to hearing from you. |
