Web Development 

Content Websites

If your website is primarily informational, containing content and images about your products, services, company, etc., then it is most likely what we refer to as a “content website”.  Basically, it’s not ecommerce or heavily laden with web applications. 

Whether it’s a 5-page small business website (Home page, About Us page, Contact Us page, 2 pages about your services) or a 3000-page university or large corporate website, Beacon can handle the project. 

We always use the same standard process, typically streamlined for small business budgets and expanded for large projects that involve more stakeholders, decision makers, custom milestones and/or approval steps.  We start with a Kickoff meeting to begin the requirements gathering process to fully understand your objectives.  Then we work through the creative process to layout the various pages of your website so they are not only easy to use (by your visitors) but search engine friendly so Google and other search engines can easily index your website for your most important key phrases.  Working together, we develop the “blueprint” for your website to make sure that we do it right the first time.  Next, we develop the website under content management software so that you can manage and maintain your website yourself.  And finally, we test the website thoroughly before launching it for the world to see.  We make the entire process very simple as you will have an experienced project manager as your primary point of contact, step-by-step, to deliver a website that effectively represents your business.
