From creation to ongoing maintenance … we do it all
VH Web DeZine offers a full range of design services
to
help
companies create a “look” for their business – an image.
Our design capabilities include custom logo design,
business card
and letterhead design,
publicity flyers and
brochures,
presentation
materials and of course, custom web site design.
We also offer
text editing services to help you
to get your
message
across on your web site and in your other
marketing
literature.
In addition, we provide a service to help you
with
domain name
registration, set up with a web hosting company. From beginning to
end, working in close co-operation with you, we can manage the whole
process.
We take extra care to understand your needs
Before starting work on a custom web site design, we invest the
time to ensure that we understand our client’s business, know
their
target market, have clarity about the main message or
impression
they want their web design to convey and that we
have a good
understanding of their own personal likes and dislikes
– in colours,
styles, “look and feel”. This latter input is often best
communicated
by asking our clients to surf the web and give us
the
addresses of
any web page design they really like and also
of pages
they dislike.
From this input we can create a custom
web design
concept that
is uniquely tailored for each client.
We create a look, just for you
Often the biggest challenge in custom web design is settling on
the
“look” of a web site. Many of our clients want us to help them
to
create or to re-design their image, starting with a custom logo
design. Capturing the “look” is a truly creative process; it is not
in
any way mechanical. The creative ideas for this work come at the
strangest times. This part of our work does not confine itself to
9 - 5 office hours, but it is the part that we consider our strength
and that we enjoy most.
Our web sites are custom built for each client
We do all of our creative
design work in a very interactive way.
We communicate regularly and often with our clients and we
thrive
on and learn from that interaction. For each of our clients
we
create
a private “window” within our own website, with a
special address
that is private, between our client and us.
With each step in the
creative process, we post the work-in-process
to their phantom
web and notify our client asking for their feedback.
This continuous
interaction is
an important part of the way we work.
Our clients
are involved every step of the way in the creation of their custom
web site. This way we avoid surprises or
disappointments and
we save time. The end result of working
collaboratively with our
clients, in partnership, is a web site
design
that uniquely reflects
them – custom built for their needs.
Custom built doesn’t necessarily mean expensive
We specialize in custom web
design which means that all the
web
sites we design are created specifically for our clients. We
do not
use standard templates and we have no standard formats.
Each of
our designs is unique, the end product is the property of
our client
and therefore, it reflects the client, the nature of their
business
and
their target audience. Our charges for custom web
design are very
competitive.
One of the nice things about a website is that it can grow
incrementally. You can start with a small site and add to it over
time. Using this incremental approach enables you to grow your
web site as your business grows. It is not about price, it’s about
quality. It is our belief that it will pay you to establish your
“image”
and create a unique, personalized web site, right from
the start;
you don’t get a second chance to make a first
impression.
We upgrade existing web sites, without starting over
Your business may have reached
a stage where it has outgrown
your
existing web site. However, like
people,
no web site is all-bad.
Some elements of your existing site
(colours,
Logo, tag lines,
overall layout, text, images, photography)
are
almost certainly
worth preserving. It isn’t always essential to
reinvent the wheel.
But please bear in mind that you cannot achieve
change without
making some changes, probably some that are
fundamental.
We will work with you to preserve the best elements of your
existing web site and yet, create for you a new,
upgraded
custom
web design that is commensurate with your
current
needs.
We create custom built templates for a DIY website
We have several clients who
understand the fundamentals of
creating
a web site and have learned how to use some of the
basic software
(like FrontPage). They know the basics but they
don’t understand
some of the finer points and, above all, they
are not web designers.
However, they want a “designer look”
to their website.
We can
create that designer look for clients and produce for them
a set of
unique “designer” templates. Taking into consideration
their
level
of skill, we can set up the templates in such a way that
it is easy
for them to “finish the job” by adding text or even extra
pages, if
required. Don’t let your own design limitations prevent
you from
having a professionally designed custom web site.
VH Web DeZine can provide the necessary combination of
creativity
and technical design skills; we are professional web
designers.
