WebSite Design
Your web design should probably not be entrusted to your neighbor’s
son, your brother-in-law’s best friend, the college student who put
up a flyer on the grocery store bulletin board, or the hundreds of software
developers suddenly out of work. And if you hear the words, “How
hard can it be to design a web site?” run the other
way!
Good web site design is an art that combines visual aesthetics, user-friendly web site navigation, well-written and search-friendly SEO web content, and a look and feel that appropriately communicates the message and values of the business it is helping to market.
Behind The Scenes Complexity a/k/a “The Back End”
There’s quite a bit more to effective website design than first meets the eye. The optimal functioning of a web site relies on many subtleties that are often invisible, yet matter significantly. Footers; copyright protection; Javascript, HTML, and other programming languages; proper use of icons and alt tags; cross-browser effectiveness; keywords; title tags and meta tags; attracting local versus national audiences; seamless e-mail interface; bandwidth; storage; database-driven web sites; visibility timing; SEO - all these things require more than just an eye for design. They require exceptional programming skills, real-world business acumen and years of web design experience to really understand what works and what doesn’t - and why.
Purpose of Web Design
Good web design also requires the ability to focus on, and design specifically for, the desired outcome of a site for each individual business. Is the site primarily an online brochure, an advertising tool, intended for e-commerce, to serve interactive functionality for clients, etc.? In addition to the programming skills that Reum Computing brings to the table, the web design company also brings years of business skills and experience. That mix can leverage your site to provide both form and function that other companies, that focus on form over function -or- function over form, may not have.

Web Site Usefulness
One of the important business questions we ask is: How can the site best be used to generate revenue, reduce costs and increase efficiency? Here are some examples of web site usefulness above and beyond its prime purpose as a marketing tool:
- Our web design for a large Denver based construction company allows subcontractors to access blueprints and plans on the site to avoid the contractor having to attach, mail or deliver plans around the city.
- A new website design for a property maintenance company provides real-time service logs on their web site so that clients can check the status of a job without having to call in.
- A company that found 20 Mb e-mail attachments getting blocked, uses the bandwidth of its new web design to upload and download big documents.
- We suggested to a Denver based real estate company that we integrate Google Maps on their listing pages and now every site visitor can find any property with no problem.
