Web Design Services
Effective Web design requires a blend of artistic talent and an understanding of brand attributes, visitor profiles and the functional attributes of your Website. To meet all your objectives, Web design must be driven by a requirements-based process, where input from key constituents is considered along with user requirements.
Systems Alliance has a strong track record of developing elegant, yet effectively designed Websites that take full advantage of the templating and CSS capabilities inherent in SiteExecutive.
Custom Module and Application Development Services
The Systems Alliance Web effectiveness team has experience designing, developing, testing and implementing a range of custom SiteExecutive modules and Web applications, and can also provide you with the training necessary for developing your own custom modules internally. To ensure the success of every custom development project, we use a disciplined project management methodology encompassing:
- Requirements Definition: working with stakeholders, we refine and document functional requirements to fit your business need.
- Solution Design: based on requirements, Systems Alliance produces a detailed Solution Design Document which is reviewed and approved by project stakeholders.
- Solution Development: guided by the design document, Systems Alliance will develop and validate each component of your solution and communicate progress with stakeholders at pre-defined checkpoints.
- Implementation Readiness and Cut-Over: SAI will work with stakeholders to confirm that all systems requirements have been met and that the solution is ready to be promoted into production. SAI will also work with your staff to train lead users (train the trainer) prior to go-live, and we will provide production support services that may be required to replace or augment your operations once the Website or application is live.
Continuous Improvement: Web Analytics
To tune and optimize your Website, we offer a Web Analytics service that goes beyond typical traffic analysis. Using the Maxamine Knowledge Platform, we can very quickly assess site architecture, compliance, accessibility, and functionality. This approach provides the following insights and benefits:
Architecture Mapping: A graphical site map allows you to grasp the overall connectedness of your site, identify orphans, and see how well the intended navigation has been implemented
Quality Analysis: Knowledge of the page size, link integrity, html defects, or presence of inappropriate content in your site can greatly influence the site visitor experience. With this analysis you can limit page sizes for better performance, avoid dead links, fix broken pages, and curtail any inappropriate content.
Brand Management: This analysis allows you to ensure the correct use and placement of logos and consistent navigation.
Search Engine Optimization: To have your site rank higher in search results, this analysis shows the effective use of page titles, header titles, and other meta tags.
Tag Validation: We can help you find pages with missing advertising and traffic tags, and assess tag functionality and link integrity. This analysis will optimize ROI on your investments in advertising and traffic analysis solutions.
Security Analysis: This analysis can help identify any staging and development servers linked from public sites, or internal Web data that is accessible from outside the firewall.
Privacy: This analysis identifies missing links on pages and forms, as well as identify the collection of personal data on forms that are missing privacy links. We will help you avoid “spilling” personal information into other sites.
Accessibility Compliance: Our experienced team of professionals will scan your site for 508 compliance and provide in-depth explanations of the results.
Following our analysis, we will work closely with your team to explain, address and resolve any issues we’ve found. We will then work to help you implement the processes and tools to consistently improve your site's performance, effectiveness and compliance on an ongoing basis. In addition to providing Maxamine scans as a service, as an authorized Maxamine partner, we also offer their software for resale.
