WHICH WEB DESIGN PACKAGE SHOULD I CHOOSE?

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO DESIGN AND BUILD A WEBSITE?

The time it takes to provide a website design depends on the dimensions and complexity of your web page. A primary five-page website usually takes around 2-7 days at the same time as big e-Commerce websites can soak up to 14 days from starting to cease.

WHAT IS A “PAGE” DESIGN?

Web design itself refers to the process of creating a web page's appearance and to the choice of a right color scheme, web page layout, fonts and more. Every single web page in a website has different content, but all the pages are using a similar graphic design. Advertising Solutions makes use of website templates, which contain all the basic elements of web design - the website's CSS style, buttons, backgrounds, borders and various graphic elements like hover images, bullets and header banners. When the website template is applied to the website, all the pages assume its appearance, using the same styles, background and other graphical elements. But most of the pages in a website have their own design elements. This is needed because every page has to present different content, and the basic website style is not fully applicable for all the web pages. For example, designing a contact form will sometimes require a custom web layout and design elements with which to handle the form's fields, buttons, drop-down menus, etc. All these styles, layouts, images, etc. are often not applicable for the other website pages. So, the contact page uses the basic website template for the menus, backgrounds, header images, etc. but also has its own web page design, including the contact form's design itself and all the other elements specific for that page. Most small businesses only require up to 4 pages to be designed, for example; Home, About us, Services and Contact us.
