On the 1st of October 2011 we will be releasing the Negeso Website/CMS online site Configurator.

How we design your website

The website design is the graphic design of your website and is used to build your website to your exact specification. The design defines the look and feel of your website and the basic layout of the pages. You will be able to specify the basic layout in the Configurator, you will also be able to choose which modules you want to have on your webpages. The modules you choose at this stage is preliminary and can be adjusted at a later stage. Next, our web designers will create a first web design proposal of the homepage for you. This proposal is based on your completed questionnaire (intake design form), the intake design form will give us a good picture of the message and identity you want your website to give and what's important to you. You will receive the first proposal as images: images that you can view on your computer. You will then be given the opportunity to give us feedback on what you like/dislike and what you would like changed. Your feedback will then be processed and this will continue until you are entirely satisfied with the results. This normally takes 2 rounds of feedback to get right. Any subsequent pages will be designed in the same manner.

 

The progress of the entire design process can be followed and managed online in the Customer Portal. Negeso will only go to the next stage once you are satisfied and have approved the phase. Payment is done per phase and can be completed in the Customer Portal. All popular worldwide payment systems are supported.

What is a website design?

The web design will give you an idea of what your website will look like once it is completed. The web design determines the basic layout of the pages: the location of the various components and modules on the page, such as the menu, logo, headline news, and rich-text blocks. The web design will also determine the look and feel of the graphic design of the website, it will determine the: font, colour, style elements (such as rounded edges) and images.

Why is a web design needed?

Creating a web design before you have your site built is necessary because it gives us a precise details of what you want, otherwise the construction phase would become unpredictable. The web design will make the entire process much smoother and will allow you to verify that you've got what you wanted.

How we make a web design for you?

Creating a web design requires creative skills. Experience is therefore also important. Our web designers have designed over 600 sites. The entire process starts with listening to what matters. To do this, we use an extensive questionnaire called the design intake that you must fill out to tell us exactly what you want. In the design intake you will be able to tell us what kind of look and feel you want, what your strengths are, your style, and anything else that you find important. The web design can also be based on your own website theme and logos if you already these. If you do not yet have a style, we can design it for you: logos, stationery and business cards. The design style will then be delivered to you ready to use. You will also be able to pick which colours you want, to do this we have an online tool which allows you to pick and compare various colours. In the Configurator, you will be able to choose which modules you want on your website, this is preliminary at this stage and can still be changed later. The modules you choose will play a role in the web design. Once this has all been done, our web designers will continue and make a first web design proposal. The proposal will be given to you as images that can be viewed on your computer. You will then be given the opportunity to give us feedback on the proposal, this is your chance to tell us what you like/dislike and if you would like anything changed.  This process will continue until you are entirely satisfied with the web design, this normally takes two rounds of feedback. Any subsequent pages will be designed in the same manner.

What do we design?

Each type of webpage requires a web design. What often occurs is that the home page of a website will look different to the subsequent pages because the homepage for example has a news headline. A page template will be developed for each type of webpage. The page template will define the basic design and layout of all the pages that use that page template. The number of templates that will be required is determined by the Configurator, the selected edition, and the modules you have chosen, and your business. For example, if you have several business units or product lines that have a different style then you will need more designs and page templates.

Can I provide web design?

It is also possible to provide us with your own web design. The web design phase then proceeds as described above to the construction phase, our web designers will then simply work with the supplied files.
