Website Maintenance
For the company that relies on their website to consistently generate leads, make sales or deliver timely information, having a web development company on a regular website maintenance and management contract is a must-have.
Website maintenance is much more than making content updates. It involves working your website on a regular basis to make sure it is a well-oiled machine for both end-users and search engines, and for you to readily have a “go-to” resource should an immediate need arise.
Proactive Oversight
With a website maintenance contract, you also get an
experienced eye proactively watching over the following:
- Google and Bing webmaster tools for
changes in search engine reporting. - External domain linking to monitor local
listings as well as any suspicious activity
from potential spammers - Technical issues that may arise
(e.g., slow website download times
due to hosting company changes) - New browser roll-outs, i.e., Internet
Explorer 9’s recent release, that may
require minor reconfiguration of your
website so it is compatible.
Hello Partner! This is where you show us around your place, literally or virtually. We dig deep to bring to light what makes your company unique. We uncover your business personality and voice, and discover your competitive edge.
A timeline is planned and designed to be flexible to meet your needs. If you want a fast-track website turned around in a couple of months, we can plan for that. If you need more time to rally your troops for help gathering content, we can adapt to your working style and plan a longer turn-around timeline.
It’s a must-do: checking out the good and the bad in your competition. Ad Ventures reviews your competitor websites to dig up what they do right… but mostly for what they do wrong. (Know the ruts to avoid!) A fresh perspective helps “smooth the path.”
Just like how you know how to get
around in your business, a carefully
planned navigation route will help guide
web visitors to where YOU want them to
go. With planning comes careful
evaluation of your website objectives.
Should your web visitor be guided through
pages in a specific sequence? Or should
they be provided the option on short cuts
to specific pages? One thing is for sure,
we design your navigation and home
page so that any visitor will know
where to click next in less than 5
seconds.
Find the best words to say what you do and then own them. Ad Ventures creative team conceptualizes ideas how best to position your organization or business in your new website. During this creative development phase, we write positioning statements, headlines and brainstorm website theme ideas.
Ad Ventures presents two or three visual
home page designs, each one featuring a unique concept. Which path, which design? You choose, then we refine based on your feedback.
Persuade your website
visitors through a blend of
carefully-selected photos and
words. The pictures do the
talking by establishing the mood
and voice of your website. And
the words do the walking, guiding
the reader from one page to the
next. Ad Ventures reviews
hundreds of photos, finding just
the right ones to reinforce your
message. After all, the ideal
photo is worth a thousand
words, the best way to tell
your company story.
See your new site, but there’ll be no surprises. What you see is exactly what you expected and hoped for. Because you were informed and involved, viewing step-by-step progress of the building of your website. Enjoy the view!
