Plan for Success and a Smooth Execution
It’s important to know and be able to articulate your goals and vision for your site before choosing a firm to help you build your brand online. Decide the website’s purpose and your target audience. Identify and refine your messaging accordingly.
Do research and find sites you like – and decide why you like them. Consider checking out your competitors to evaluate what’s being done in your industry. It’s good to know what you want and to be prepared to be flexible and open-minded of what your web design firm suggests.
There are Thousands of Small Business Web Design Firms to Choose From
As you can imagine, web design firms range in skill and focus, and every firm has its own approach. Each offers its own unique strengths and areas of focus.

Our Web Design Philosophy
When you partner with AKEA, you will see our work is defined by our five important pillars.
When we create your website, it must be:
We hold fast to these principles; we believe that by remaining committed,
we ensure your website will align with your vision and brand.
Web design style can be narrowed to two key approaches: Responsive and Adaptive. Our experts at AKEA will work with you to determine which design option makes the most sense for your company and your goals.
Responsive design allows designers to develop just one template that will work on all different sizes. Designers are also able to use a variety of technologies and open source toolkits. This is the approach that is used in the vast majority of cases.
With the adaptive approach, an existing site does not have to be rebuilt from the ground up. This allows designers to build on existing content and deliver a mobile-responsive layout.
The client-side adaptive approach can be more difficult to accomplish than a responsive design.
The server-side approach offers specific templates for specific devices, which allows for customization, puts device-detection logic on the server and enables smaller mobile pages that load faster.
While there can be some advantages gained, adaptive design tends to become more cumbersome due to the multiple versions of templates that must be maintained.
AKEA’S WEB DESIGN PROCESS FOR SMALL BUSINESSES & NON-PROFITS
The AKEA Web Solutions approach to a successful web design project may not seem unique from some other web design firms at first glance. That’s because our timeline is likely similar to the other firms you may have researched. However, what sets us apart is our approach and vast knowledge about web design, WordPress and web accessibility. Our unique process is comprised of six steps, with a distinct AKEA methodology and strategy that enhances your project at each phase and gets our clients what they need.
The AKEA team will facilitate meetings with you to discover and document all website requirements including target audience, special functionality requests, accessibility suggestions and design requirements.
The AKEA team will develop a systematic plan for your specific design. This plan includes the overall project life cycle and deadlines. Additionally, roles will be outlined for client team members and stakeholders and the technical team members at AKEA.
The AKEA team will work with you to make sure your site is accessible for the launch. We can also provide you with resources and training to help it remain accessible throughout its life. Accessibility will allow your brand and information to be available to all audiences, including those people who may be visually or hearing impaired.
If you choose to host your new website with AKEA Web Solutions, our experts will continue to work with you and your team to perform maintenance twice per month. This includes ongoing software updates, daily backups and security monitoring.
