Planning: At Digital Vision Media it is our careful planning, attention to detail and strong commitment to excellence that has helped us achieve a reputation for outstanding results. Our goal is to design, create and build a web site that reflects the personality, individuality and uniqueness of each business, artist or individual we work with. We will work closely with you throughout the entire process to make sure that your needs, desires and wishes are fully implemented. To do this effectively a little planning will have a dramatic effect on the final results. We will work with you to make sure that the structure of your web site is thoroughly explored before we begin designing and building. We will put together a basic outline for your site that shows the structure for displaying all the sections and pages. This "site map" will outline how each of the pages on your site will relate to each other. A well thought out foundation can save you time and money as the site is built.
Designing: Our goal here is simple: to design a distinctive, well-crafted, aesthetically appealing web site which is easy for users to navigate and explore and which gives them easy access to the information they are looking for. We will work closely with you to make sure that the design reflects the look and feel you wish to convey to your visitors.
Building: Once you are satisfied with the overall structure and design for your site, we'll begin adding the actual content. You supply us with the photos, text, graphics, etc., and we'll start building. We will work closely with you to make any final revisions, changes or touch ups until the site is exactly how you want it. Your web site will then be loaded onto the server and host of your choice. Before making the site live, everything is tested on a variety of web browsers (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Netscape, Safari, Opera and Camino) and both major operating systems (Macintosh and Windows) to make sure as many visitors as possible will have a great experience at your site. It is important to note that differences in browsers and operating systems often cause slight differences in the way a web page will be viewed on an end-user's computer. It is impossible to guarantee that every user will view your web site exactly the same, but we do everything we can to make sure their experiences are as close as possible to the intended results. We work closely with several hosting companies and will be glad to recommend affordable, reliable solutions for your hosting needs should you desire.
Validation: Your web site will be built in standards compliant XHTML utilizing CSS, JavaScript, PHP and MySQL to provide the most current, reliable code foundation. We take pride in making certain that all of our source code passes validation tests with the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium), the folks who develop and oversee coding and technology for the web.
