From Idea to Launch — Clear, Fast, Collaborative
At WhitaWebDev, we believe the best websites are built on clarity and communication. Here’s exactly what to expect when we work together — no guesswork, no wasted time.
🔍 1. Discovery
Goal: Understand your brand, goals, and audience.
We start with a strategy call or questionnaire to get to know your business. You’ll share existing content, branding (if any), and project goals.
Deliverables:
- Project brief
- Site goals
- Creative direction
⏱️ Timeline: 2–3 days
🛠️ Tools: Notion, Google Docs, Loom
🧱 2. Wireframes
Goal: Plan the structure before designing the surface.
We sketch out low-fidelity wireframes to map content, layout, and navigation. This ensures we’re aligned on flow before adding style.
Deliverables:
- Wireframe mockups for key pages
- Site architecture outline
⏱️ Timeline: 3–4 days
🛠️ Tools: Figma, Whimsical
🎨 3. Design
Goal: Bring your brand to life on-screen.
We apply branding, colors, fonts, and visual elements to create pixel-perfect mockups and a cohesive UI across devices.
Deliverables:
- High-fidelity page designs
- Mobile & desktop previews
- Optional design system components
⏱️ Timeline: 5–7 days
🛠️ Tools: Figma, Adobe Fonts, Unsplash/Pexels
💻 4. Development
Goal: Build a fast, clean, and functional site.
We code your site or use tools like Webflow or WordPress to bring the designs to life — ensuring smooth animations, responsiveness, and SEO basics.
Deliverables:
- Fully functional site
- Mobile-optimized layouts
- SEO-ready structure
⏱️ Timeline: 5–10 days
🛠️ Tools: Webflow / WordPress / HTML / CSS / JS
🔍 5. Review
Goal: Polish, test, and tweak before launch.
We go through every page together — testing on devices, gathering your feedback, and making refinements to layout, copy, and functionality.
Deliverables:
- Final round of edits
- QA testing checklist
- Client walkthrough (via Loom or live call)
⏱️ Timeline: 2–3 days
🛠️ Tools: Trello, Notion, Google Meet
🚀 6. Launch
Goal: Go live with confidence.
Once approved, we launch the site, handle any domain changes, and ensure smooth deployment. Optional post-launch support is available.
Deliverables:
- Live website
- Backup files
- Handoff docs & video tutorial
⏱️ Timeline: 1–2 days
🛠️ Tools: Hosting platform, Google Analytics, Search Console
