Our Web Design Process

Simple is beautiful

Creed Interactive is built around our uniquely flexible team of experienced professionals. We work well as a team and believe our clients are key partners in that team. Our tight interaction makes us powerful yet we are small enough to remain nimble and free of the bloated support structure larger agencies require just to function. We keep things simple because we believe our process should support our work not the other way around.

Define

Step One

During the definition phase we partner with our client to document the known business requirements and to help discover needs and opportunities that may have lain hidden from view. We can integrate seamlessly with our client's internal creative, marketing and IT teams.

Our experience includes:
Goal Setting
Web Strategy
Search Engine Optimization

Design

Step Two

In the design phase the objectives start to take form as they are blended with our understanding of user and brand experience our client needs to be successful in the interactive space.

Our experience includes:
Information Architecture
Websites
Minisites
Intranets / Extranets / Blogs
Presentations and On screen Displays
Flash and Flex Animation

Develop

Step Three

With requirements and designs in hand development begins in earnest. In this phase site content is added and prototypes are created to ensure the site behaves as intended.

Our experience includes:
Databases
Minisites
E-Commerce
Flash and Flex
ASP.Net
PHP
ColdFusion
Content Management Systems, including Drupal and Joomla.

Building a Solid Launch Pad

The entire team participates at some level in this discovery expedition and as such everyone is fully invested in the outcome and the success.

Blending Form and Function

The design phase has multiple stages to ensure the creative process can evolve in response to client feedback. We go beyond simply making beautiful things as we collaborate to make meaningful design that solves problems. It is important to us to walk our clients through each step so they fully understand how the design meets the goals set in the definition phase.

Roles include:

Turning Vision into Reality

The development phase can vary a great deal based on the objectives but one thing remains constant - our client's needs drive the solution not our attachment to a particular technology. Our team can handle the entire project or integrate with our client's internal development resources. We also can create custom applications or working with open source solutions.

Roles include:
Lead Developer
HTML Developer
Flash Developer
