Draft Proposal
Once LCSS has gathered enough information, LCSS creates a draft proposal for the client. Typically, the proposal undergoes several revisions. The proposal is critical for the success of the Web site design, since it defines what needs to be done and how to do it. In most cases, LCSS provides a simple prototype of the Web site to help the client visualize the look and feel of the Web site.

Contract Agreement
Before any actual work on the Web site begins, the client and LCSS must agree to a contract that defines the roles and responsibilities of both parties. The contract is a standard ICA (Independent Contractor Agreement). The contract also includes costs and delivery timeframes for the project.

Web Site Development
Once LCSS has client material (text and graphics), the development of the Web pages can begin. This may take several days or several weeks depending on the complexity. During this period of time, the client can view the Web pages in progress on LCSS's Web site. This allows you to check for spelling, appearance or other issues.

Going Online
Once you have reviewed the content and are comfortable with the Web site, we can move the pages to your host site. If you do not have a host site, LCSS can work with you to find a host provider. LCSS can also help you register a domain name if you do not already have a unique Web address.

Launch & Site Promotion
After your Web site is on your host site, LCSS can work with you to promote your Web site. For example, LCSS submits your Web site address to all the major search engines as part of the standard design work.

Maintenance
A Web site is never finished. You may want to change the content or appearance of your Web site. On request, LCSS will update your site periodically. Details of any maintenance work is contained in the contract agreement.
