After producing hundreds of websites and business systems, Get Started has refined the process of developing great online solutions. The aim is to get you from idea to launch as quickly as possible, saving you time and money. And of course to produce a website or system that you will be proud to call your own!

The 8 Steps to your new website

1. Assess

When you come to Get Started our team of web professionals will assess your needs. The team will look at your business, marketing, budget and customers’ needs before making any recommendations. For most websites this can be achieved quickly with great results.

2. Propose

Once our team has examined your needs, Get Started will propose the ideal solution for you. With a range of products and services, Get Started can combine these to meet your needs. These products include content management solutions, ecommerce, online business systems, search engine optimisation and email marketing. Get Started also offer a range of technical, planning, design and management services.

3. Plan

After you sign the proposal and pay the deposit, we jump straight into the project and the development plan. The main purpose of this plan is to outline the timeline, site map and content, creative & technical briefs. All of these elements are vital to the development of your project and its long term success.

4. Design

Once the development plan is approved the project is handed to one of our professional in-house designers. The design will give your target audience a visual representation of your business. The Get Started designers will take your brand requirements, images and key communication and create an effective design. The quality of the design is vital to ensure that all business and marketing requirements are delivered to the target audience.

5. Develop

With the plans and designs approved all the pieces can be put together. Get Started have a team of programmers with a wide range of skills and experience. If your business has selected to use one of our Content Management Systems it will have been set-up waiting for the design integration.

6. Test

Get Started developers test at different stages throughout the lifecycle of the project. Once the development is considered complete a range of user-assisted testing is conducted. This will isolate any refinements or issues relating to the usability of the system. Along with the usability the technology is tested to remove any issues prior to launch.

7. Launch

It is time to launch when you are happy with the website and all testing has been completed. Get Started will put your website live on our servers and ensure everything is working fine. It’s then time to celebrate! If you have any problems or changes post-launch our dedicated support team is always there to help.

8. Promote and Nurture

Now that your new website has been launched, it’s time to tell the world! There are number of ideas to achieve this on and offline. For online Get Started has developed a range of services including search engine optimisation, email marketing and online advertising (like Google Adwords and banner advertising). These are great ways to kick start traffic to your new website.
