Alphatec IT Solutions

The primary difference between an professional web design agency and a web designer is that beyond simply making an easy to use and visually appealing website, a professional web agency has the expertise and responsibility of ensuring that the website is able to generate new enquiries, leads, sales and a genuine return on your investment.

Web Design is the art and process that a web designer or graphic designer executes when creating web based media. Website design may involve both the aesthetics and the mechanics of a website's operation and generally also requires a web developer and usability specialist to oversee.

Primarily, web design focuses on the look and feel of the interface. A well designed interface is very important as this portrays your brand identity and company image. Conveying a consistent look and feel throughout your organisation is vital to supporting you brand and the website extends this. Generally speaking, a web interface will be incomplete without a strong logo and corporate brand. Our graphic designers specialise in corporate identity creation and can work with you to create an amazing new company logo.

During the website design process, our expert web developers and web designers work alongside each other in collaboration to ensure that once a website has been scoped and all functions documented, that this information is translated into the web design correctly. This is critical because the website creation process requires that this information is acquired from the client, documented in functionality and rendered in the interface designs for everything to work and to deliver the clients expectations.

Alphatec IT understands that the key to online success is not in the design, but in the usability of a website and how it converts traffic into customers. Once a website starts to create your organisation new leads, more customers and ROI through more sales, we have been successful.

Backed with a mountain of knowledge and experience about what works and what doesn't on the Web, we approach the usability phase ensuring that usability is central to the design process, and our iterative design methodology ensures that the right product is built the first time.

We begin our web design process by firstly concentrating on the structural representation of the sites layout. No colours, fonts or graphics - just hand drawn boxes in place of the major components of your website. We then translate this into a simple boxed layout called a 'grey mock-up'. We find out what that you want to achieve from the website, and more importantly, what your customers want from your website. Once we get this right, then we make it look great!

The design process can require more than one interface to be designed and revised before development can commence. Once the design process has been approved, our web developer then hand code the website using the highest level of web development and available technologies available. Final touches are then added to spike the initial design. Fine-tuning can take as long as the rest of the process at Alphatec IT.
