What is your website design approach?

Our website design approach is a blend of strategy, creativity, functionality, and marketing: 

  • Requirements - We start with an initial meeting or discovery call to assess your business requirements, creative aspirations, and technical needs.
  • Specification - We then move on to the functional specification outlining how your website will work.  
  • Design - Once agreed, our experienced team will work with you to create a sitemap showing the full website structure. If you need a bespoke design, our designers can create this for you, including the UX strategy, wireframes, mock-ups, initial designs, and even prototypes (if needed).
  • Build - The next step is to build your website according to the designs and functional spec.
  • Testing - We allow for feedback throughout the development before moving on to the final testing stage which includes functional testing, mobile responsive testing, and user acceptance testing to ensure you get a perfect website.
  • Deployment - If needed, we will help deploy the new website to your chosen server or use our own if you like the idea of super-fast UK hosting
  • Support - It's completely optional, but we offer a wide range of technical support and maintenance plans to keep your website up-to-date. 

From start to finish, our team of skilled web developers and designers will focus on creating a visually appealing, practical, and effective website that meets your needs, the needs of your customers, and your marketing objectives.

How will you consider my business goals and target audience when creating a new website?

Why choose Opace above other web design companies in Birmingham and the West Midlands?

Opace stands out among other web design companies in Birmingham and the West Midlands due to our wide range of digital services and commitment to building long-lasting relationships and ensuring complete satisfaction, as can be seen in our reviews. Our team always goes the extra mile to ensure the best results.

Do you use mobile first design and will this help increase sales for my business?

The importance of mobile device optimisation can't be underestimated.

A mobile-first design is more than just a trendy term, it's a practical approach that puts the mobile phone experience at the forefront of website creation. With the vast majority of people accessing the internet on their phones, this design strategy can significantly impact your business needs and bottom line.

By prioritising mobile users, a mobile-first or responsive design ensures your site loads quickly, looks great, and adapts to the screen size of any device, be it a desktop, laptop, tablet, or smartphone.

When visitors find your site intuitive and user-friendly, they’re more likely to stick around, explore, and most importantly, make a purchase. This can directly increase sales, whether you’re revamping your current website or launching a completely new site.

But it’s not just about appearances. Functionality plays a huge role too. A mobile design optimises everything from navigation to payment processes, minimising barriers that might cause users to abandon their journey midway. And when your site is this smooth to use, word-of-mouth marketing comes naturally - people love to recommend businesses that make their lives easier.

Our extremely helpful team specialises in this approach by creating websites that adapt seamlessly to any device, without compromising on quality. And we don’t just stop at aesthetics; we'll integrate the tools and analytics to monitor user behaviour, giving you insights to continuously improve and boost conversions.

 

Do you offer search engine optimisation and social media marketing?

As a full-service digital agency, we understand the importance of SEO and social media marketing to help you reach the visitors that matter most. We offer these services to ensure your website ranks well in organic search and has a strong presence on social media platforms.

What market sectors do you cover?

Our diverse experience across various sectors enables us to understand and meet the unique needs of each industry.
