Process-Driven, Fully Responsive, Search Engine-OptimizedWeb Design and Development
Our process starts with the discovery and planning phase, in which we learn about your company, your brand, your services, and your business goals. We use this information to develop a strategy which will guide us during the design phase.
In the design phase, our team begins the creative process. We research the latest industry trends to discern what works and what doesn't, then couple that with the information you've provided to construct high-fidelity website mockups. After we've received your feedback, we make any necessary adjustments, ensuring we get your new site's design just right.
The final phase consists of building and deploying your new site. We continuously check in with you throughout the build process, ensuring you are always up-to-date on the site's progress. We build the site so that it can easily grow, and train you in the use of its content management system (CMS) so that you feel empowered to make changes to it as needed.
Over half of web users use a phone to browse the internet. If your website is not fully responsive, your users may not be able to interact with your site in an optimal way, and your bounce rate may be suffering for it. That is why Desert Lab Studio builds every site to be fully mobile-responsive, regardless of the device it is viewed on.
We follow current best practices to ensure your site is also adherent to search engine optimization standards, so that your users can easily find you among your competitors.
Once your site is built and we receive your final approval, we deploy it to the production environment. Our work doesn't stop there, however. After your new site is live, we are always available to help you maintain it and ensure that it continues to run smoothly.
