The website creation process
Web Design
Web design includes creating a custom, user friendly, interface for your website to display content in a way that maximizes user retention and interaction.
Web Design
Web design consists of the client facing front end material. It’s the content the user sees, displayed in a manner that’s worked out between the designer and the client. The goal is to keep the user engaged, the longer they stay on the page the greater the chance of them using your services.
Graphic design
We use a number of tools to design graphics and content that you can use on your website. This is especially helpful for companies with not much content that need experienced graphic designers to make your site look nice.
Content
A good website needs good content. That means good writing and cohesion. Google’s search algorithm factors in content. Bottom line, if you can’t display the content users are looking for, they will choose to look elsewhere. If your looking to boost user engagement try creating a blog page where users can give feedback to your articles.
Web Development
Web development is the functionality that’s built into the website to accomplish the site’s goal. If web design is the shiny new car, web development is the motor powering it.
Web Development
The back end content the user doesn’t get to see. This is where your site functionality is built. If web design is the shiny new car then web development is the engine that runs it. I implement a LAMP stack which stands for Linux OS, Apache server software, MySQL database, and PHP programming language.
Content Management System
A content management system (CMS) creates and holds your digital content. It makes it easy to dynamically update your pages by pulling content from different parts of the web making your website very dynamic. We build every website on WordPress which is the #1 CMS in the world due to it’s massive developer network, ease of use, and endless plugins.
Security
WordPress websites come with built in security, but if that’s all your relying on you will probably eventually get hacked. Attackers use brute force logins and SQL injectors on your contact forms to bug your site with malware. Experienced development agencies like Mainframe Web Solutions know the proper security protocols to follow, along with maintenance and updates.
Web Design and development process
Define
Before we can begin work designing your web page we need to have a clear understanding of what you hope to achieve. We need to clearly outline your image. We need a plan. This can make or break your website. If things are not clearly defined from the start the straight line to your goal can diverge and things will slowly start to turn in the wrong direction.
Design
Once we have a clear definition of your goals and a mutual understanding we outline your site in a wire-frame app then begin designing the front end. This is the stage where your website starts to come to life. We add/create content and push it to the website to flow well with the outline, creating a user interface that is conducive to a well balanced user experience.
Align
Content is king. When we fill your pages out with content it’s important to keep in mind your overall goal which is to align your website with your business needs. Are you offering classes to subscribe to? Are you starting an E-Commerce platform with WooCommerce? Maybe you’re establishing a hub for your business where you can offer your services.
As a courtesy, we optimize your page for search engines to index, but if you’re looking to really push your into the marketplace we offer a higher degree of SEO as well as Google Ads (PPC) management as a follow-up or separate service.
Develop
The development phase is where we roll up our sleeves and build out the site’s functionality. Whether it’s adding products and a marketplace for e-commerce, listing jobs for candidates to apply to, or server optimization. All of this will tie into the content management system we employ WordPress.

Graphic Design
Vector Graphics Designer
Vector graphics are graphics designed and created through mathematical commands generated by shapes and gradients. While traditional images get blurry or pixelated as they are resized, vector graphics are resized with the same pixel density thanks to these mathematical formulas. They are great for graphics that resize a lot as well as logos and sprites.
Raster Graphics Design
Raster graphics are your typical .png and .jpg images that populate your website. We use graphic image editors like Adobe Photoshop and Gimp to edit these images to enhance their detail, create cool effects, or make images that pop and stand out.
Stock Graphics
Sometimes the best answer is to use stock graphics from websites like Shutterstock or Pexels who create professional pictures they license to you for diaplay. When you need professional photography images that speak to the user stock images are a great solution.
