Detailed and reliable processes
Whether you are entirely new to outsourcing, or you have some experience, a partnership with me is a solid investment for sustainable growth and improved personal health.
01. UI/UX Research & Design
Timeframe: 1 - 1.5 weeks
Depending on the actual needs of your project, these are the usual steps involved in the UI/UX phase.
- Agree & create site pages and hierarchy
- UI/UX research and planning
- Create unique page wireframes
- Evolve wireframes into high-fidelity mockups
- Transform static mockups into working prototypes
02. Page Builder & Functionality
Timeframe: 2 weeks
Your clients’ WordPress website is developed on Vultr High Frequency servers from Cloudways. Your project is assigned a codename such as PROJ-XYZ and is assigned as sub-domain on my white label development URL (proj-xyz.buildingwebsites.co.uk).
Each website is built with Elementor Pro and a professional stack of industry plugins, which are left licensed and activated after launch saving you and your client from buying pro plugins.
- WordPress installation and configuration
- Create branding page and setup Style Kits Pro
- Create site structure & navigation
- Build header, footer and other templates
- Create first draft of all site pages in Elementor
- Create custom post types and custom fields
03. Revisions
Timeframe: ~5 days
Final revisions and tweaks are made to the pages and their contents. This is your last chance to make revisions, so be sure to get them all in now.
- Send over all required changes via email
- First set of revisions are made and sent back for review
- Any final revisions are requested and made
- Sign-off is given and final page optmisations are done
04. Testing & Pre-Launch Checks
Timeframe: 1 - 2 days
Before the site can be launched I run my manual visual and functionality testing checks to ensure forms, buttons, anchors, hyperlinks, responsiveness and much more are all working correctly.
Pre-launch WordPress steps are performed such as un-hide the site from search engines.
- Check all forms work, emails are sent and automation
- Ensure all hyperlinks, anchors and button actions are set
- Check desktop, tablet and mobile responsiveness
- Run pre-launch checklist
- Package site up for launch phase
05. Launch & Handover
Timeframe: 12 - 24 hrs
If you’d prefer I launch your clients’ website on your behalf I’d be happy to do so. I have to login and re-activate premium plugins at some point so it makes sense for me to be involved in deployment as well.
- Option 1 - Migrate website on your own
- Option 2a - Migrate site between Cloudways accounts
- Option 2b - Export & import site with All-in-One WP Migration
- Re-activate premium plugins and run updates
- Final visual and technical sweep of site
- Handover website to you and your team
06. Aftercare
30 days of support
Once your clients’ website is live, and you’re the key administrator, my work is done. Though, should you require assistance I’ll be happy to support you free of charge for the first 30 days.
There are obvious limitations to this, such as:
- Going beyond the agreed scope of work.
- Fixing design and functionality that was broken by you or your client.
For everything else, I’ll gladly lend a hand and make you look great in the eyes of your clients.
