Overview and GoalsDear Anita,

Further to our conversation about your website, we agreed that it could definitely do with a refreshto bring it up to date and into the current century!

You would like to add in new content, a Brexit page, remove the Products section and remove theBlog. We also discussed adding in sub-pages under Services, to give more information about howyou can assist a prospective client. You're very keen to bring your Canadian education to theforeground, especially with the recent referendum result in the UK.

We will use create a new custom WordPress website, designing an easy to use website with a cleanresponsive design. By responsive, we mean that the website layout will adapt and scale to whateverkind of device the user is viewing from whilst maintaining your existing look and feel and improvingoverall performance. Given that at least 40% of website traffic in 2016, on average, is from a mobileor tablet device - we need to ensure that we cater for these users so that they can browse yourwebsite effectively.

You would like your new website to be professional, current and forward looking. You do not wantyour website to be too buoyant, as this would be unsuitable for your industry. You're a big fan ofthree colours so the focus colours of the website would revolve around White, Silver and Green andwould be colour-coded to match your new logo.

The website will be designed to be fast loading and offer a great experience to your clients andprospective clients. Everything on the new website will be clean and easy to read, with a good levelof professionalism as you work on business to business basis.

Finally, we will design everything from a code-basis to be "SEO Ready". This means that, should youwant to carry out some SEO / Marketing work in the future, you'll have an advantage that will helpyou get moving quickly.

Sincerely,

Matt Davies

AntiSushi Ltd

Scope of ServicesResearchThe first step is that we need to thoroughly understand your business, your business goals, yourcustomers and their expectations and behaviour, and how your website factors into all of it. We’llalso look at the competitive landscape to establish context and benchmarks for how your siteshould function and then improve on that. This stage will give us the foundation for moving forwardwith just the right recommendations for the design and development of your new responsiveWordPress website.

DesignOnce we’re armed with this information, we’ll set to work mocking up interface layouts for 3-5pages, including the home page, inner page, contact page, and any additional templates needed.The mock-up will be presented as a prototype, which you can review and we can tweak to suit.

DevelopmentOnce you've approved the design, we’ll start building the website based on the agreed prototypeusing WordPress, HTML, CSS, PHP and Javascript. We will utilise a page builder called Beaver Builder,which will allow you to easily edit content on your website in the future.

ContentAll content will be provided by you, unless otherwise agreed.

Additional RecommendationsSEO / MarketingAlthough not required, in order to generate the best results from your website it's a good idea toconsider the impact of SEO (Search Engine Optimisation). Having carried out SEO work for over 12years now, I'm fully confident of assisting clients in any industry or target market.

SEO starts with initial keyword research and competitor research, which allows us to understandyour market and the level of competition that you have. We would then carry out On-Page SEOactivities, which focus on getting the content in the right shape and ready for marketing. Finally, wecarry out Off-Page SEO activities which, in a nutshell, is the process of building links and valuetowards your website so that Google understand that your website is valuable and has authority inyour niche and thus rank you higher in the search results.

Support RetainerWe recommend retaining our services after the site is launched to assist with any further supportissues that arise. We can assist on an ad-hoc basis or you can purchase a monthly package for ourtime. For a WordPress site, I would recommend a small monthly package as a minimum since thiswill help keep the site updated, secure and we can handle any quick updates for you. For WordPressthese start at £19/month for updates, security and up-time monitoring.

Getting down to the nitty grittyDESIGN

We create look-and-feel designs, and flexible layouts that adapt to the capabilities of many devicesand screen sizes. We create designs iteratively and use predominantly HTML and CSS so we won'twaste time mocking up every template as a static visual. We may use static visuals to indicate alook-and-feel direction (colour, texture and typography.) We call that ‘design atmosphere.'

If, at any stage,you're not happy with the direction our work is taking, you'll pay us in full for everything we'veproduced until that point and cancel this contract.

We deliver web page types developed from HTML5 markup, CSS2.1 + 3 stylesheets for styling andunobtrusive JavaScript for feature detection, poly-fills and behaviours.

BROWSER TESTING

Browser testing no longer means attempting to make a website look the same in browsers ofdifferent capabilities or on devices with different size screens. It does mean ensuring that a person'sexperience of a design should be appropriate to the capabilities of a browser or device.

DESKTOP BROWSER TESTING

We test our work in current versions of major desktop browsers including those made by Apple(Safari), Google (Chrome), Microsoft (Internet Explorer), Mozilla Firefox and Opera. We'll also test toensure Microsoft Internet Explorer 9 for Windows users get an appropriate, possibly different,experience. We'll implement a single column design for older versions of Internet Explorer and wewon't test in other older browsers unless you specify otherwise. If you need an enhanced design foran older browser, we can provide a separate estimate for that.

MOBILE BROWSER TESTING

Testing popular small-screen devices is essential in ensuring that a person's experience of a designis appropriate to the capabilities of the device they're using. We test our work in:

iOS: Safari, Google Chrome Android 4.x: Google Chrome and Firefox

We currently don't test Blackberry, Opera Mini/Mobile, Windows Phone or other mobile browsers. Ifyou need us to test using these, we can provide a separate estimate for that.
