Review of Draft Template Style

At this stage we will have built a draft website based on the style template you have chosen. We will have inserted your text and photos, logos, etc. into each of the website pages. The draft will be up and running so you and our team can see exactly what it looks like.

We now have the foundation and framework - lets now built the house.

Customizing you Site

Using you advice we will customize your site by changing the colours and general layout of the site so that it becomes a unique individual site. We will continue this process until you are satisfied with the design. We will add all the various links that you want on the pages and other features. We will then review the overall design and test all the links to ensure the navigation works well.
