Microsite Development

Do you need a sub-site to promote a product or service? Are you planning an event? A short-term campaign?

In order to showcase your best qualities, explore our company’s first quality micro website development services model. It's all about the user experience when using a microsite to improve your online presence. Initial usage of Microsites was in conjunction with a large corporate website to highlight particular bits of branded content separate from the company homepage. Today, the term "microsite" has broadened to include small business websites that only provide few different services or products. Microsites are perfect for short-term community events, product debuts, and marketing initiatives. Microsites typically don't require complicated hosting infrastructure, dedicated domains, or intensive organic SEO efforts. Whether you need a standalone microsite or an integrated solution, we can create a custom solution that captures attention and drives engagement. As a leading web development agency in the UK, we have the expertise to bring your vision to life and deliver results that exceed your expectations.

What all do I need to provide to kick off the website development project? - Web Development Project Requirements

Website development is the process of building a new website or making modifications to an existing one. It comprises of site design, content creation (text copy and words), adding images, client liaison, setting up servers and network security, and perhaps e-commerce development. This project can be as simple as building a single webpage or a large project involving the development of complex web applications.

Whatever it may be, we need the following for the smooth conduct of project.

  1. Purpose – Mention the main objective of the website. You can tell us a little bit about the organisation or people behind it, and explain why your website is really being made. It should include details about the target audience. What sort of people do you want to attract and what your competitors are doing? Also, you must have a comprehensive understanding of the users' personas and desires in order for the website to satisfy their requirements.
  2. Goals - Describe your website's objectives little more in detail than that in the above section. The developers must know exactly what your company intend to achieve.
    For example, say:
    To increase monthly sales by 10% within the next 6 months.
    Increase newsletter subscription to 20% by end of this year.
  3. Teams - Provide us with a list of people who involve in this project on a day-to-day basis including contributors and decision-makers. Mention their names, project responsibilities, job positions, and contact info in the UK as well.
  4. Phases – Execution of projects will be in stages, especially if it's a big one. Please inform us the stages as it really helps everybody involved to be aware of what work is currently ongoing in what stage. Accordingly, the team can concentrate on the appropriate area of the project.
  5. Content - Here, you should describe the content structure. This includes the legal bit that you have to mandatorily publish as per industry standards and GDPR regulations.
    • Website map - It illustrates the arrangement and layout of the pages. Everything needs to be organised clearly and to be simple for our web developers to follow.
    • Content types - A website may contain the following types of content:

      Blog/News
      Products/Services
      Testimonials
      People

    • Page Templates - Include page layouts for reference for the different types of content that will be present on each page. The "Home" page, for instance, will look different from the "About Us" page.
      Examples of page templates:

      Home
      Services
      News Archive
      Contact Us

  6. Taxonomies - Website taxonomy, often known as URL taxonomy, is important to a website's structure. This is because, your content is organised in subfolders in the URLs. Therefore, using well-optimized URLs will dramatically improve your site's performance.

    For example, if you run a cooking site, then you may have taxonomies for breakfasts, lunch, and dinner under the heading "meals." A taxonomy of "cuisine" can also include terms like French, Mexican or Indian.
  7. Functionality – Passing this information makes it clear to our developers, how exactly your site is going to function. If there is a signup page, for example, what fields are necessary? What happens after a visitor submits the form?

    Some websites have interfaces with third-party APIs. These should be explained in terms of how they're going to operate and do we need to gather any other information. Below are some functionalities which needs input from the client side.

    Multilingual functionality
    User roles and abilities
    Payment gateways for ecommerce businesses
    Search capabilities
    Tracking and analytics
    Performance criteria

  8. Design – Our web developers require direction on the design aesthetic. If you have brand guidelines, please forward us the same. It includes logos, brand colours and font styles.
  9. Providing Text Content – Forward us the text copy what you have prepared for each webpage. Kindly inform us if you need assistance regarding the creation or editing of text content. We can help you with the same upon additional charges.
  10. Providing Images - We'll let you in on a little secret: eye-catching photos that provide an instant wow effect are an essential component of every website design. If you have extremely powerful and impressive images, the layout of your site will clearly look more amazing. We would recommend hiring a professional photographer for capturing such images exclusively for using in your site and forward it to us. It will greatly influence the final appearance and make the website stand out significantly among your competitors. If your budget does not allow you to hire a professional photographer, there are several great resources where we can get you high-quality stock images for additional cost per image basis.
  11. Browser Support - This section should detail the technical requirements for supporting all browsers and devices. Supporting browsers not popular in the UK will increase the project's costs. Please let us know on which all browsers and devices your website must be tested.
  12. Access to your Domain and Hosting – Finally, to implement the settings, we'll need access to your hosting control panel or domain management interface. If you currently have hosting, please provide us with that platform information as well.

It generally takes around 24 to 48 hours in the UK after the completion of design and development, signoff and final payment to make your website available to all internet users.

Definitely not. However, it would be good if it is ready. It helps our design team to minimise the iterations and plan quicker releases. Ideally, you will only need the full content when the site is finished and ready to accept it. Please note, that one the major causes of website launch delays is content provisioning. We have observed a common practice where the development is complete and the content is yet to be provided by the customer or their copy writing agency. Therefore, it is highly recommended that you work on the content strategy alongside the initial design phase.
When clients appoint a project manager or a point person, website development projects go more smoothly. This will make communication more efficient and enable prompt responses to our inquiries and requests. The POC at your end can coordinate with all internal stakeholders and pass on the final inputs and manage approvals rather than we attempting to coordinate with multiple stakeholders at the client’s end.
