What do we think makes a great website? It is a combination of two things - Design and Functionality. Designers create websites that look really great, colorful, appealing, inviting, but how is the navigation? can you find all content easily? and while you may know where all your content is located, is it intuitive for your customers? Most importantly, does it achieve your marketing goals and fit with your strategy, because more than anything else, a website is a marketing tool. On the opposite spectrum we see programmers that create unique websites that have great functionality, offering tools and data no other site has put out there yet, but they are unattractive, unappealing and do not look professional. At To Eleven Marketing, we are not just designers, or programmers, but we have over 14 years experience in design, programming and marketing, all of which are critical to maximize the benefit your website brings to your business. Your site will not only look good, we optimize for search engines so you can be found. We create an easy to understand navigation so in just a few clicks a visitor can get anywhere on your site, we add functionality such as blogs (Wordpress) and Ecommerce design and Flash Animations and Content Management systems (so you can edit pages yourself) and once the design has been completed, we will help you market the site. Building a website is only step one, if you wait for the search engines to drive the world to your door you will be disappointed. You need to promote your site, whether it is search engine marketing (Google Adwords or Yahoo/Bing) or more traditional marketing (direct mail, email marketing, even guerilla marketing tactics).As a smart business owner you should be concerned about spending your marketing dollars wisely. Our web design fees are affordable and quickly pay for themselves in sales and leads. Once you invest money in building a great website, don't stop there, make sure it is seen, and that is when your will see the return on your investment.

How does website design work?
The process begins by sitting down with you to establish reasonable, achievable
goals for your site. We will then create a design plan to follow in developing
your site, including a production timetable so you know when you can expect
your site to go live. Read WEEKS here, not MONTHS. If the other guy is taking months and your site is not ready, you picked the wrong team to build it.
We know as well that a web site is not a static piece, but ever-changing and
evolving. Many design firms “design and run” leaving you to make
updates or contract elsewhere for improvements. We have long term relationships
with our clients, many going back six to ten years or more. We work regularly with
you to make improvements and upgrades to your site as technology advances
in the online world. We provide affordable web design solutions.
