Website Design Timeline

The example below represents a project that starts on with May 15th's development cycle.

Checklist

First, we make sure that we have everything we need to begin the project. This includes your domain and hosting details (if necessary), your creative brief, and all the website requirements.

Sitemap

Next, we organize all the information for the website into a hierarchical and meaningful structure to make it easy for users to find what they need and easy for website owners to publish their stories.

Prototype

Then we produce a prototype or "proof of concept" to see how the website might work in the browser and test a user's interaction. Once finalized, we design an interface for the website.

Coding

The coding phase is where we wave our magic wizard tool and turn your beautiful prototype and interface into a functional website. It's all very technical here, so we won't bore you with the details; needless to say, we spend a lot of time indoors during this process.

Launch

Finally, we put your new website through our 42 points pre-flight check and then launch it into cyberspace so that the rest of the world can visit ii on computers, tablets, and smartphones. Phew!

At Limonade, web design and development costs vary based on factors such as the project's scope, features and functionality, design and branding requirements, and technology used. We understand that every client has unique needs, so we take the time to fully understand your project requirements before providing a custom quote.

We believe in transparency about web design and development costs, including additional costs for ongoing maintenance, updates, and support.

To give you a starting point, our Leased Sites start at $3,000, a small business website starts at $5,000, and our higher-end custom-designed websites must be determined based on the customer's needs.

Investing in high-quality web design and development is an important decision for any business. At Limonade, we work to create functional and visually appealing websites that improve user experience, increase search engine visibility, and drive conversions.

At Limonade, web design and web development are two distinct but complementary aspects of building a website.

Web design focuses on a website's visual and aesthetic aspects, including the layout, color scheme, typography, and overall user interface. The goal of web design is to create a website that is visually appealing, user-friendly, and easy to navigate.

Web development, however, deals with the technical aspects of building a website. This includes the website's coding, programming, and functionalities, such as forms, e-commerce, and database integration. Web development aims to ensure that a website is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and efficient.

At Limonade, our team of web designers and web developers work together to provide a seamless web design and development experience for our clients. We strive to create visually appealing and technically sound websites to provide an optimal online experience for your users.

At Limonade, we are proud of the work that we have done for our clients and are happy to provide examples of our previous web design and development projects.

Whether you're looking for a simple brochure website or a complex e-commerce platform, our web designers and developers have the skills and experience to bring your vision to life.

At Limonade, our commitment to website functionality and security is further strengthened by our founder's extensive experience in the field.
