Unfortunately there are many reasons why it is almost impossible to do so. You may not own the design, or the current site is built on a different platform. Designers use many different styles of coding and this can create big problems. The biggest reason to start over is Search Engine Optimization. We must code the website properly and create content and pictures that are tagged with keywords. Google and the other Search Engines will scan your entire website for information it can use. This information will trigger results when your clients are searching for you by a keyword that describes your products and services. We find it is almost impossible to take another designers work and make it produce the kind of results it can if we just start from scratch.

Key Design Websites has laid out very specific steps to deliver a quality website every time. The first step is a phone appointment with our project manager. The project manager gathers your content and talks to you about design ideas, other websites you like and he will show you examples of some of our very best work. We find this process helps you direct the project coach on what you’re envisioning.  Once we have your content and we feel we have adequately captured your vision for your website we forward your project to design. The designers will create a comp of the website, which is just a Photoshop image of the design. Your project coach will present this to you, go over any changes and move onto design. This is to ensure we have created a visually pleasing website that aligns with your vision for your business. In other words we want to make sure that you are happy with the design before we build and code your new website.

Key Design Websites is able to deliver your new website in three to four weeks. This of course depends upon you providing us with the basics we need for design such as text and pictures, some design direction, etc. Key Design Websites has always held the belief that a website should be a fluid work therefore we will always make all your content changes for free as part of your monthly maintenance, should you find you don’t have all the elements assembled before the build we can still launch the website and add additional pictures, pages and text at a later time. The sooner the site launches the sooner your Search Engine Optimization will improve.

It has been our experience that many clients have had negative experiences with other companies. Many times its related to the one man shop who suddenly closes their doors and disappears. Or the very large impersonal company staffing untrained people whom you will only reach after being on hold for 45 minutes or longer. Key Design Websites currently employs 17 talented people who know this business well. Every website is created from a blank slate, Key Design Websites does not use templates or plugs ins as we find this compromises quality. Your website will be your own unique creation, as you look at our current work you will not find a common theme or design, because that website was designed for just one client. Combine that with excellent customer service, affordable rates and the top drawer maintenance and your have a powerful tool that will help your business excel!

Key Design Websites has found it to be most efficient to work with a company that programs and services our servers for us. These are the top of the line, best servers money can buy. They offer fully redundant drives, meaning they have two hard drives with identical information on each. Should one go down the other picks it up and there is no down time. These servers are backed up for changes daily and fully backed up weekly to an off site location. It goes without saying not only is your business on those servers, our entire business rests in their hands as well. We continue to take steps to ensure our information is backed up and secure to an off site location. This is to ensure the information is safe from acts of God etc.

A website could be compared to your vehicle, it requires maintenance, If you don’t maintain you car you will eventually have to pay large fees for expensive repairs. It cannot be overstated enough; successful websites are updated frequently and continue to change to reflect the business that website represents. Rather than paying huge hourly fees every time you need to change a few pictures, or update your text, Key Design Websites will always make all your content changes for free. Just call us toll free or send a quick email and consider it done! We answer our phones live and we are ready to help at a moments notice. Our maintenance fees also include ongoing Search Engine Optimization. Our goal is to push your business to page one of Google and the other search engines and directories, that is a constant ongoing effort that costs time and money. Google constantly changes their algorithms (or rules) of what it takes to keep your website ranked.  Key Design Websites works for you and we will keep up with the changes and keep your business ranked. Lastly Key Design Websites is always here and always available to coach you, answer questions and help you plan your online marketing. All those services combined are worth far more than our monthly maintenance fee and we are certain you will agree. We have a large amount of references we can provide upon request, those references will tell you they are highly impressed by our level of service and professionalism.
