Web Development
Think of a website like an iceberg. Design is what makes the top of the iceberg you can see … web development is what goes into the 80% of the iceberg that’s below the water line.
Is your website programmed to perform at its best?
These days, a great web design will get you only so far … that is, if the underlying programming of your site doesn’t support the effectiveness of your design. Effective web development is the foundation of any highly productive website. The building of a website is like an iceberg. The site’s design represents the portion of the iceberg visible above the water line. The site’s programming represents the bulk of the iceberg floating below the surface, that supports the tip of the iceberg and determines its form, function, longevity, etc. The web team at Marketing Performance Group includes highly trained web developers who program our clients’ websites, microsites, landing pages, and other web properties to maximize their success.
Each web development project varies greatly, based on factors like the client’s industry, the size of the website and the functionality required for the site; however, what is similar in MPG’s approach to each web development project are the following five fundamentals that ensure effective website execution:
