Features of Project Approach

Our main approach is to develop different kinds of web systems according to our client’s business needs. Our priority are not only visual features (design), but marketing meanings and especially technical usability. Our feature is that the process of web production is foreseen by complex research of the project target audience interests, needs and behavior. The results of this analysis are used by system architect to form convenient informational structure and navigation of the future website, to construct user interfaces and data bases. The detailed technical task is prepared on the basis of this research.
