We at Onexcel follow a three-stage approach to the website development process. We understand, analyze the needs of the client and deliver a solution that meets the goal. To understand the overall content structure, you need a sitemap that also describes the features of all pages. Additionally, our team at Onexcell performs technical site audits for the existing websites.
Moving forward with the design service process, mocking up will show exactly how the page looks on different devices. These designs reflect future websites. Once approved with the designing part, we move towards the development phase that includes approved designs. Later, the website goes under review and begins in the modification phase.
