Tybee Web Design is a small web development company and we are selective about our clients and our work. If we commit to your project we will get it done. Our goal is to
offer personalized service backed up by great products. Because we utilize a rapid site
development process centered on the CMS Joomla Tybee Web Design can deliver high-end professional websites for a reasonable price, most of our sites range from $750 - $2500. We'd
love to meet with you or talk on the phone - you can fill out the

Our experience has
taught us that to achieve a well-performing website there needs to be a
willing base of content creators and also support people to make sure all the
technical stuff gets done. Tybee Web Design fullfills the role of website
developer, technical support plus ongoing marketing, if needed. Our
philosophy is to make it as easy as possible to get the most current
and accurate information on the website asap. Our company only accepts
a limited number of clients so that we have guaranteed time to make
sure your website is as good as it can be.

First Step - determine your site's goals. Our Site Design process starts with listening to you, reviewing all

Template/Design:
After getting a basic feel for content and site purpose it is time to create the
Template or Design.
Once we have a basic site structure and understand your site's purpose
we can propose a few designs - either create one from scatch or use a
pre-exiting template. It is faster and cheaper to use a pre-existing
template but we are happy to build one from scratch or use one from
another designer.
Installing Functionality:
If
you'd like a custom form, shopping cart, newsletter, forum - any thing
to make your site a better customer experience. We can install or
develop whatever you need.
Testing and SEO:
After it's all good
and you are satisfied there's more
testing. We want your site to be robust, secure and usable - we always
thoroughly test our sites. We also want your site to fare well on the
search engines. We make sure your site is designed to be as search
engine friendly as possible.
Documentation:
If we use a third party solution for your site all versions and file
changes will be noted so that it is easy for us or another developer to
efficiently upgrade and maintain your site.
