At the Watershed Intelligence Network a great part of our business is online publishing. As a result, everyday we seek to understand the behavior of consumers as they use the internet in their everyday lives. This part of our business makes WIN different from other web designers. Our clients become part of WIN’s growing knowledge base as part of an online community.
Because of our publishing focus we specialize in tourism, culture, recreation, the rural economy, communities, social enterprise, micro manufacturing, First Nations and the environment. We have been delivering insightful business solutions to a variety of organizations in an assortment of places. We take customer satisfaction very seriously here at WIN.
Step 1
Establishing a Creative Centre using the Internet might mean selling products and services, greater awareness or memberships. Working hand in hand with the client, we find out exactly what they want to accomplish with their website. Are they looking to simply display their product and service offerings on-line, or do they want a complete e-commerce solution capable of accepting on-line orders? From A to Z, no job is too small or too big. We'll make sure the client understands all the options available to them and help them choose the best one for their business.
After all available options and ideas have been discussed, it's off to the drawing board where the client's new website is designed on paper
Step 2
Once the new website has been fully designed and approved by the client, construction begins. WIN utilizes many of the latest technologies when developing websites: scripting, imaging, databases, code compliancy. We're constantly updating our library of knowledge with the newest and best practices used in the market.
While developing the website, we stay in constant communication with the client to ensure consistency between the design ideas and the working product. If changes need to be made on a particular aspect of the design, we're often able to completely change our strategy to ensure a desirable product is delivered in the end
Step 3
Testing, testing, testing! One of the most important steps in producing a website. After all, what good is building a coliseum if the pillars that support it are unsound?
We'll ensure that the functionality of the client's new website is in 100% working order. We'll also ensure that it retains the desired look-and-feel on all web browsers available in the market (i.e. Internet Explorer, Netscape, Opera, Mozilla, Safari, etc). It's very important that all visitors to a website have the same experience
Step 4
The last and final stage. In the great words of Dr. Frankenstein, "It's alive! ALIVE!" Now that the client's new website is completely designed, developed and debugged, it's time to open the doors and deploy it to the rest of the world. If the client already has a host for the new website, we'll work hand in hand to insure a smooth and speedy transition from website developer to host provider. We'll also be happy to host the new website on our web hosting system.
Realizing Creative Potential
