and customized programming.
Method
Define
the project // Project Initiation
We
get to know your business. We review your goals and objectives for
the site, your target audience, your competitors, and other relevant
information. We create a design document and preliminary schedule.
The complexity of your site may require additional services during
this phase, including a needs assessment, strategic plan, or functional
specifications.

Tools |
The
key to using technology wisely on the web is to closely match requirements.
We help you identify what your audience expects and define what it
takes to meet the functional requirements of your applications. Ensemble
Internet Design can help you design a platform independent web site,
or help you exploit the advantages of developing on one platform for
your intranet audience. We are experienced at building web sites on
Unix and Windows NT, and can incorporate standard HTML, dynamic HTML,
Perl scripts, JavaScript, Visual Basic Script, Java and other cutting-edge
web technologies. We prefer coding in raw HTML for precision, but
we are experienced with popular HTML authoring tools and can set up
the appropriate infrastructure for easier maintenance by your team.
If your web application requires database access, we can help you
select and install a database package that meets your needs and build
the web interface. We will assist you in setting up automated usage
reports that track hits, trends and problems. We will also register
your web page with the appropriate search engines and indexes. Some
keys to web site success are download speed and error-free browsing.
We optimize all graphics and test all web pages against multiple versions
of popular browsers including Netscape (Versions 3.X and 4.X) and
Internet Explorer (Versions 3.X and 4.X) in Windows, UNIX and MacIntosh
to optimize the speed and accuracy of each site. |
