Website Design in Glasgow - Our Process
Parachute has a multi-phased approach to building digital solutions such as WordPress, Umbraco, or Magento websites.
Our process starts with a discovery phase where we learn all about your brand and business needs. During this phase, we look at competitive benchmarking and complete an audit of your existing website, such as how it currently performs for SEO. Once the discovery phase is complete our web designers begin to analyse the site structure and architecture to complete a new sitemap and navigation. We will produce wireframes to prioritise and organise your content before creating high-fidelity designs. During the design stage, we apply your brand to the approved wireframes to create a gorgeous-looking website.
When the website page designs are approved our team of web developers gets to work on bringing the designs to life. This can be a time-intensive stage of the process and can take weeks to months to complete depending on the content management system (CMS) and the number of integrations required. When the development has been completed the site is then rigorously tested across devices and browsers to make sure it is responsive, accessible and free from bugs. Once you are happy with the build and it's all signed off the website will be launched and made ready for the world!
We build lots of different types of websites
It can be easy to think of a website as a single monolithic term. However, there are a lot of variances between sites such as the distinction between a brochure site and eCommerce.
Our team of developers is not wedded to any one content management system and their are many we would highly recommend. We assess your needs and recommend a content management system based on your business goals. WordPress is an extremely popular platform which many people have experience editing. Lots of our clients use WordPress to power their websites. WordPress has lots of plugins and can offer eCommerce functionality through WooCommerce. Another popular CMS choice is Umbraco websites. The Umbraco CMS is one of our favourite platforms which offers great editing capabilities. eCommerce is also a large part of what we do and when it comes to larger catalogues and eCommerce sites we also offer Shopify and Magento development. Whatever options you choose as a CMS, we ensure your website hosting is fast, secure and reliable.
Parachute has a wealth of experience in software integrations which extends the functionality of your website. Many of our clients use a ticketing system called Spektrix and over time we have created a robust Spektrix integration that can seamlessly get theatre and arts organization sites online quickly and without hassle.
