New website design, October

NQ Truck Wreckers are a brand new Allcorp client who approached us to get some assistance with some development work on their old website. We explained to them that the platform their old website was built on wouldn’t be suitable for development work and their best option would be to redesign the website and then develop it further.
Website development can be a costly exercise. We’re not talking about installing WordPress widgets or plugins, that’s not considered website development. A website developer will be code-fluent in many coding languages and will develop a website at the code level. When we provide a website development quote to a client, we suggest that they also start with a clean slate website so everything will get the most longevity.
When any website goes online, an imaginary clock starts counting down. Usually after 2-3 years this clock runs out because the technology the website is built on has been replaced with better, newer technology. So, if a client is spending money on website development, they’re better off having their website redesigned and brand new to begin with. This negates a client spending money on development work, only to have to redo it all in a year when their website starts showing its age.
But the development work is yet to come for this project. The first step is always the website, and we’ve designed this custom-coded website utilising photography and content assets that were prepared by our internal team. Due to the nature of this business, our website designer wanted to give it a more distressed and grungy feel.
Being custom-coded, we have confidence the new website will rank well in Google search and now that their new website is live, we can commence the development work. The development work we are doing for this client is about their inventory management and linking their existing third party inventory and sales management software to also channel the same data through to the new website. This will then display their stock in a custom-coded e-commerce section of their website that works as a live environment, linked in real time to their sales software.
