Design to Reality Design to Reality Design to Reality
Transitioning from designs to WordPress development site is a big step our developer specialise in. The development stage is very different form the design stage.
Our development philosophy is to do a great job without cheap shortcuts. Your website is a major part of your business and deserves quality development to become the strong pillar your business needs. Having a long term development strategy is important so your website is easy to maintain, manage and develop for years to come.
Our WordPress Development Process
Our development process started in the early days when we discussed the requirements and design. E.g. knowing we use Flexbox and containers in the development stage allow us to crate design ideas we can discuss in our early meetings.
Themes and Plugin are a natural part of the process and these make sure your WordPress site runs well. We need to incorporate any custom code or CSS when building the site.
The process
1. Development Initiation
After approval of the design we can initiate the development set up. The set up consist of hosting files and databases. We add all plugins, theme and necessary licenses as well as contacting your IT for DNS changes.
2. Theme set up
Using the right theme for your website is crucial as the theme sets the parameter for many of the common user interface elements. We have many years of experience using different themes and we have narrowed it down to perfection which means we use themes that are low in bloat and do not include unnecessary features.
3. Core Functionality Implementation
Setting up WordPress core
We specialise in WordPress and therefore need to set up WordPress core files. These files are what gives the website the skeleton and backbone.
Essential plugin integration
Our proposals will cover what plugins your website will be using to start with. These plugins are used to set up many of the features the site will have E.g. a plugin can be used if your website need a multi step form or downloadable PDFs.
4. Custom Feature Development
Building bespoke functionalities
At times we use custom code rather than plugin to give your site a special function. We always want to reduce the number of plugins to make it easier for everyone to manage and keep the site less complex.
API integrations and third-party services
We use API calls to integrate many of your business software with the website allowing automations to run by certain triggers. This is a growing area of our business just like the ai bot Ai Bots.
5. Content Integration
Let the build begin
Transferring design elements and content from Figma
The content from website design stage is used to build pages according to design & styIe. Pages will look great on all three screen sizes, desktop, tablet and mobile. We always design with mobile first mentality because most people will visit your website from a mobile device.
Content population and structuring
The website will have a sound url structure and elements such as images will be compressed and named to help search engines better understand them. This will help your visibility, increase user experience and keep your pages loading fast in browsers.
6. Performance Optimization
Speed optimization techniques
Speed is a big factor for user experience and therefore we make sure our server allows for a fast page load keeping your users happy and want to come back again. Great servers, small pages, reduced number of DOM elements, caching and lazy load are a few of the speed development techniques Webserv use. Most of our sites load between 1:00 to 2 seconds in Australia. We use Pingdom tool for accurate speed test.
7. Security Implementation
WordPress security best practices
This is a main cornerstone and part of our Mantra. Website security for our clients is priority number one. Â We have created a Managed WordPress hosting system to build on and to keep your site plugins, themes and WP versions. Our best security practices means, regular backups, strong passwords, update plugins and themes as well as WordPress versions. We can also take it further by installing security plugins and 2 Factor Authentication.
SSL certificate installation
With our hosting packages comes built in SSL certificate to encrypt Internet traffic and verifying server identity. On top of this, we can also proxy your server IP giving you another layer of protection by making your server more private.
8. Testing and Quality Assurance
Browser and device testing
We build using responsive design meaning pages looks great on all  common screen sizes.
Functionality and user experience validation
Any functions or custom code is tested to better understand how it works in reality. Knowing the function are stable before launch is important.
9. Client Review and Feedback
Presenting the developed site
The new website will be shared with you for final feedback and testing and changes. At this stage we or working on finetuning content and such as images or text.
10. Launch Preparation
The big launch
In the launch stage we will work with IT or make sure that we have access to your DNS so that we can make required changes. In this stage we make sure your form notification are being delivered to your inbox and any other technical settings are changed to accommodate the launch.
Post-Launch Support
