The Ultimate WordPress Checklist For Your Next Project.
We Do WordPress.
StackUp Digital are advocates of the WordPress platform. WordPress is the perfect solution when you are looking for a content managed website that performs quickly and is easy to edit.
One of the key advantages of WordPress is its user-friendly interface, which makes it easy for even non-technical users to manage and update their websites. Its versatility allows for the creation of anything from simple blogs to complex websites, making it an ideal choice for businesses at any stage of growth.
With intuitive features like the Gutenberg editor, content creation becomes a seamless process, empowering businesses to regularly publish fresh and engaging content to attract and retain customers.
So, where does StackUp come in? We break down your challenges into micro-sized chunks, understand your goals and work backwards which enables us to provide you a complete solution. We are responsive, extremely knowledgeable about the platform and have proven strategies and results as you can see in some of our examples.
What does the
Process look like?
Depending on the project, the discovery and scoping session will delve into the project's objectives, target audience, and desired functionalities. At the same time, we will aim to outline the site's structure, navigation, and content requirements along with an analysis of competitor websites and industry trends to ensure the site stands out and meets current standards. By the end of the session, both parties will have a clear understanding of the project scope, timeline, and deliverables, laying the foundation for a successful website development process.
Once the discovery phase has been completed we will document a full plan so that both parties know exactly what they are getting, when it will happen and at what cost. This will be documented in detail and signed off by both parties before we proceed with the design and development phases. The document will act as our go-to guide on how the project should progress throughout its life span. In the document, we will detail individual milestones and sprints so that we can deliver progress for you quicker and more accurately. Doing things in smaller chunks will allow us to keep in close communication regarding all phases of the project.
During the design phase, the creative vision starts to take shape. Our designer(s) translate your requirements and brand guidelines into visual concepts, typically beginning with wireframes to outline the site's layout and functionality.
These wireframes evolve into high-fidelity mockups that showcase the site's aesthetic elements, including colour schemes, typography, imagery, and interactive elements.
Throughout this phase, designers collaborate closely with the client, incorporating feedback and making revisions to ensure the design aligns perfectly with the client's vision and goals. The result is a polished design that not only looks visually appealing but also enhances user experience and effectively communicates the client's message to the target audience.
During the development phase, the focus shifts from design to implementation. Our development team begin by transforming the approved design mockups into a functional website using coding languages such as HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
The development team will take care and consideration when they start and get to work on responsive layouts. These layouts will adapt seamlessly to various devices and screen sizes, ensuring a consistent user experience across platforms.
Throughout the development process, rigorous testing is conducted to identify and address any bugs or issues, ensuring the site performs optimally before launch. Collaboration between developers, designers, and stakeholders remains crucial to ensure the final product meets all requirements and exceeds expectations.
The website is complete and so undergoes final testing and quality assurance checks to ensure it meets all requirements and functions as intended. Once the site is deemed ready for launch, it is handed over to the client along with any necessary documentation, such as user manuals or training materials.
In addition, your account manager will guide you on how to manage and update the website, including plenty of instructions on how to use your content management system or platform if applicable. This will come in various formats such as written, audio and video content.
Throughout this phase, clear communication between ourselves and the client is essential to address any last-minute concerns or questions and ensure a smooth transition.
Finally, the website is officially launched and made accessible to the public, marking the full completion of the project.
Once launched we offer comprehensive maintenance and growth packages to ensure its continued success and relevance. Our maintenance packages include regular updates to software, plugins, and security patches to keep the website running smoothly and safeguard against potential threats.
In Addition, we provide ongoing technical support to address any issues or concerns that may arise, ensuring you have peace of mind knowing your website is in capable hands.
Our growth packages focus on expanding the website's reach and effectiveness, offering services such as performance monitoring. By continuously optimising and enhancing your website, we help you achieve your long-term goals and stay ahead of the competition. Our customisable packages are designed to adapt to the unique needs and priorities of each client, providing a tailored approach to maximising your online presence and success.
