Getting Started
A web site basically does one of two things. For businesses, it advertises and promotes specific products and/or services--the site acts as marketing
platform. Or, for family or individual focus, a web site is an outlet for a particular personality to extend itself to the world.
 Limestone9 Consulting takes pride in developing sites that are soundly functional, quietly attractive and easy to navigate. We are NOT
into creating sites that are complicated or rely on gimmicky.
Depending on the amount of
information you want displayed, the number of pages and topics will vary.
This is something we will need to visit with you about. To make your web site user-friendly and to communicate its contents
effectively, your information will be arranged in an easy to review and
acquire order. If you do not have an idea as to how you would like your information to appear to visitors, we will help you make those decisions.
While every web site has a "home" or "welcome"
page, other pages might consist of a combination of items or topics. Such
as: Company or Personal Information, Product Information, News, Current or
Upcoming Promotions, Photographs, and a host of other
items special to individual needs.
To develop a page, most of the features are crafted through a several
step process particular to each item or topic. These steps include
creation of page attributes, layout, sizing, coloring etc., and also
include the selection of fonts, graphics and photos, page links, background colors or designs,
shapes and lines, content.... |
Fonts
"Font" refers to the design or style of the print
/ typescript
that appears on your pages. Applying the appropriate font(s) improves the
readability of a page while making it more attractive. Different styles and
sizes of fonts are applied to titles, command lines, and bodies of writing.
Some of these items might call for different, individually applied colors to
attract the attention of viewers. Once the correct font and color have been
applied to the written material, the sentences / paragraphs must be sized
and positioned.
Graphic
Images & Photos
 Graphics can consist of "clip art", animations, banners, and
3-D words or photos and other images. (jpg or gif format) Though "clip art" is often easy to install,
constructing or locating the best clip art for your site might require additional
time.
The creation of animations, 3-D and 2-D images, specifically created for a
web site, involves a several step process.
Most times, a logo or graphic that your business
already uses can be scanned and implemented into the design of your web
page. Or, if you do not have a logo or would like your current logo revised,
one can be made. Using your own jpg or gif format logo or graphics will help reduce the cost
of your web site.
Digital photographs are best used on a website. However, printed photos can be scanned and implemented as needed. Note that this is a
time consuming, more expensive process! If you don't have photos or need additional photos
for your site, Limestone9 Consulting
can easily assist you in most circumstances.
