Website project planning and development guideline

At Avtec Media, our goal is to help you understand web technology in the most simple and straightforward way possible.

To facilitate this goal, we have a defined development process that guarantees projects will run smoothly and successfully. Please familiarize yourself with the process below so you can fully understand everything that goes into creating a website. This guideline will also help you learn what to expect and what to provide regarding your required contribution to the project.

We make the design process as easy and pleasant as possible for each client. That means up-front pricing, no hidden charges, and no unexpected surprises.

Once we have completed your initial website design, you will have the opportunity to review the website and submit requests for changes. We make it our policy to consult with you at every step of the website design process. Although we take a small deposit on the agreement of a contract to create a website for you or your company we do not invoice you for your final site until you are completely happy with the end result.
