Factor:e provides a complete set
of Web Site Design and Development Services and Strategic Consulting.
We produce web sites from their concept design phase to complete
development and deployment. Our solutions are scalable and are based
on the latest technology. Our creative team is experienced in producing
original, effective and sophisticated designs for customers in different
industries.
Our Web Site Design Services include:
- Complete Website design and Development
(HTML/Flash)
- Strategic Planning & Information
Architecture
- Backend Development
- E-Commerce (Web Applications)
- Interactive Features
- Copywriting & Technical Documentation
- Maintenance
- Domain Registration
- Custom Software Application Development
Our process is a proven path to
satisfaction. We begin by delving into what the client wishes, who
the target audience is, what kind of technology the target audience
will likely use, and gather any material the client can provide
that helps us see into their mind. We also request the Client to
look and submit links of any Websites they find that they either
like or particularly don’t like. If the client is not familiar
with the Internet, we survey other sites in the Client’s field
and suggest links.
Once we have a good set of design
notes, we begin the iterative process. We propose a design sample,
(for more complex sites we may prepare two independent samples),
and use client feedback to refine the look until it feels just right.
For those who really don’t
have the budget for a custom-designed Web site, we have a template
based service with a difference. Unlike other template services
that put you into a simple or bad graphic look, we have templates
that our top designers have put together in the process of developing
our business.

You might think of Information Architecture
as the skeleton that holds a web site together, but this isn’t
quite accurate. Information Architecture is more like the DNA that
tells the skeleton, along with everything else, how to grow and
meld together.
Good Information Architecture not
only creates a user-friendly site, it creates a process of web site
development that is client and developer friendly. Information Architecture
basically boils down to that old recipe for success: preparation.
When a client comes to us, our first
question is: why? Why do you want a web site? We’re not trying
to scare away clients, we are taking the first step in developing
good information architecture. Determining the purpose of the new
site. Of course we go much deeper than that. We want to know what
everyone in the client organization expects out of the Web site.
We want to know who they expect to visit the site, and what those
visitors will be expecting to see. Our goal is to identify all relevant
audiences, the expectations of those audiences, and the goal of
our client in addressing each audience. Good information architecture
is transparent.
Our process is one of research, strategic
thinking, and preparation. Before we build the site, we determine
who will see it, what they want to see, why we are showing it to
them, and where everything goes. The foundation goes in first, then
we construct the building. Doing a good job here makes every other
phase, including: graphic design, layout, functionality, and testing,
much easier.

Is your Web site maintenance and
updation getting lost in the shuffle? Doing it in your spare time
seemed like a great idea a few months ago, but now you don’t
have any spare time and your Web site is looking increasingly out-dated.
When the Website went up, everybody
wanted to be part of it. Now that it’s there and needs to
be changed, everyone has other work to do.
