Web Design
Introduction
Webcogs are able to offer web design as a standalone service or to complement other services such as E-Commerce development and web application development.
We are able to take your existing branding and provide you with a website that will be pleasing to the eye and captivate your customers. If you are a startup, we are able to provide branding for you.
We provide a CMS (Content Management System) as standard to allow you to easily update your website whenever and wherever you are (no technical knowledge required).
Internal Guidelines
Our internal guidelines for web design are as follows:
- Pages should load quickly on slow connections
- Pages should be optimised for 1024x768 pixel displays
- Navigation should be consistent and easy to use
- Content should be brief and to the point whenever possible
- Website should be cross-platform and cross-browser compatible
Accessibility and Web Standards
We re-appraised our guidelines in August 2007, adding additional internal guidelines for new websites.
- Reasonable effort should be made to ensure that pages confirm to W3C WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines), especially priorities 1 and 2
- All pages should validate to W3C XHTML 1.0 Strict
- All websites should feature a privacy statement
- All websites should feature an accessibility statement
This is to comply with the UK Disability Discrimination Act.
