Our Web Design Indianapolis Process
Initial Web Design and Digital Marketing Consultation
We have been doing this long enough that we understand that a clients needs and our services are not always a perfect match. That being said, if for some reason your need and our web design services are not a good fit, we have a huge network of web development and website designer partners.
During our initial consultation the goal is to outline how our full service website design services work and to get a gauge on what you are looking to accomplish with your website. If the new site is meant to be a lead and inbound marketing machine you have come to the right place! We work with clients not only to determine what the design will look like, but also what the traffic sources will look like and ensure that we are creating a site that is friendly to search engines, accessible for screen reader optimization, and is a professional representation of your business online.
Web Design and Development Proposal Phase
Once we have an initial conversation and determine what web design services will be most valuable to your specific need we will then create and supply a web design and web development proposal along with line items for any other digital marketing services that we may have discussed. Generally at the proposal phase we often record a video outlining considerations for a variety of different items like web hosting, search engine optimization, online store, strategic marketing strategy, social media marketing, converstion rate optimization, analytics, and other elements that are important to the long term success of your website. We have found that spending some time up front helps to ensure a successful project in the future.
Web Design Project Implementation
Project Start
Now that we have agreed to work together, let the party begin! When we start the project we will then start to plan several elements of your project including, web hosting, your website's images, digital marketing considerations, seo strategies, a general sitemap, and accessibility considerations as well. Failing to plan is planning to fail as they say and this is the time when we shine as Indianapolis web design experts!
Wire Frame Design
This is where the design starts to come to life. Generally during a web design project we will start an initial run by our graphic design and web design team to supply you with a wireframe to review. This wireframe will give you the general feel of how the website design will look once it is live. Our web design and web development team want to make sure we get it right from the start, so this will be the part of the project that inevitably determines the success of the website. Many of our clients are small businesses and we understand that time is generally not a luxury they have, but spending time to get this phase right is curtail to the success of the project so as a digital agency we spend time here and push back on clients to ensure that the website design turns out better than they had dreamed!Once we have an initial conversation and determine what web design services will be most valuable to your specific need we will then create and supply a web design and web development proposal along with line items for any other digital marketing services that we may have discussed.

Web Development Phase
One we get the initial design right and approved we will then move onto the web development phase of the project. As a web design company this is where the heavy lifting starts. Our web development team are the ones that bring the web design vision to life. The web development team at our web design agency are the ones responsible for taking the wireframe and vision and adapting it to a live website.

Website QC Phase
As a website design company we know that the quality control process is absolutely crucial. Once the website is ready with our web development team we then move it to be QCed by both our team and then the client before we launch. Our web designers and web developers test and review the website to ensure that all links work, all forms work, and also review the website for any other issues that may hurt future digital marketing efforts.
Website Launch Phase
Once we determine, along with the client, that the website is ready for launch we will then move it to the clients server of choice and change the DNS records to get the new website live, but our website design services don't end here. We have been in business since 2009 and we always say "once a client always a client". There are many different approaches from web designers in Indianapolis and our approach is always to ensure that are are supported as much or as little as you choose. We have clients that have worked with us for close to a decade implementing digital marketing strategy, hosting their website and assisting with ongoing web design and maintenance help and others that want to just launch a website and then take it on themselves. Either scenario is great with us, our aim is solely to create a satisfied client that will tell everyone in Indianapolis about the great web design experience they had!

About Our Indianapolis Digital Marketing Agency
While we are mostly an implementation agency we also work with some clients on a consultative basis as well. If you are seeking out digital marketing consulting for your organization, we have experience in many facets of internet marketing and have a large network of partners that can fill in any gaps in knowledge.We are not just simply a web design company we take a different lens on our clients websites. The idea behind most web design projects is to create an environment where users interact with your website and take some action that you want them to take. Without the right types of traffic and a focus on the user interface it is impossible to achieve that goal. The is why at Local Blitz we think through the journey from start to finish, all the way from traffic sources to conversion. Many digital agencies only focus on one part of the equation, but in order to achieve real results one must take a wholistic view of the entire web journey to maximize marketing ROI.
