Internet Presence
First impressions hold significant value for businesses. In today’s world, websites are the primary means of creating first impressions. The ISC Web Design services team develops professional, user-friendly websites that effectively communicate with potential clients to promote your brand, products, or services.
Services offered include:
Hosting
ISC uses the WordPress platform to host websites. WordPress software and its plugins are regularly monitored for updates. In addition, security software is provided to enhance backend security and prevent hacking attempts. All sites are issued an SSL certificate to validate website authenticity for visitors and browsers. Sites are monitored daily for uptime, ensuring they are functioning properly across all major browsers.
All websites that are hosted at ISC have improved SEO included for site searchability. Both new and updated websites are reviewed for the minimum accessibility levels of ADA and WCAG compliance. ADA and WCAG compliance refer to guidelines and laws ensuring websites and digital content are accessible and usable for those with disabilities. The updated design is optimized for compatibility across various devices, including mobile phones, tablets, and desktops.
Site Migration
Site migration methods vary depending on website complexity and reason. Each poses its own challenges; our goal is to make sure the process does not impact the website functionality or search engine rankings. A comprehensive plan is developed by ISC to ensure a seamless transition.
Content Migration
To redesign a website or move content, the first step is to create a new staging site and transfer the current content.
If the current design is preferred by the client, the site will be replicated to match the existing production site as closely as possible.
A redesign request results in a complete reworking of the site, giving it a rejuvenated look and feel. This involves refreshing how the content is presented and displayed. Clients may ask for a rebranding of content, which includes new color schemes and logo designs.
Case Study
Problem:
Due to a company acquisition, a client asked us to move their WordPress website from the old company’s hosting service to the ISC hosting server, without modifying current content.
Solution:
The process starts by obtaining access to the client’s website and is then moved to a staging server on ISC hosting. The staging server is used to validate that the website performs properly by testing site functionality and repairing any website errors. To ensure links pointed to the intended location, site coding was updated, and errors were corrected.
The client was asked to review the changes made to the staging site and approve the switchover. Following the staging site review and approval, the switch was made from staging to production.
Website Design
ISC professionals are skilled in designing websites for new or existing clients. The ISC team collaborates with the client to create a website design that includes their ideas, conveys their vision, and offers content.
New Website Design
Case Study
Problem:
A medical clinic required a patient-accessible online portal system for bill payment.
Solution:
Using WordPress/WooCommerce, a website was designed to accept credit card payments that allowed patients to pay their invoices online.
With this “instant” payment, the client now enjoys daily bank deposit email notifications over previous payment collection methods, by checks or phone payments.
Website Redesign
Case Study
Problem:
A horse ranch client requested a simpler method to update their website content. Navigating their website’s old content management system (CMS) was confusing and frustrating.
Solution:
ISC made the entry system simpler and introduced WordPress as a more user-friendly platform. A custom admin panel was developed to update horse events, add livestock, and provide a system for volunteers to sign-up for available time slots. A centralized location was provided for event sign-up, waiver signing, and event registration linking to an online payment center. The frontend was designed to make on-site registrations effortless using a phone or tablet as an added feature.
