Design begins in the planning process. Pictorial 'Mock ups' of the theme you chose are presented with your company color schemes, images and structure that best presents the information. You have an idea of what the web site looks like before the web design coding begins. Emphasis is made on balance, color scheme that blends well, information that can be found quickly and a strong message of professionalism.
Web development is the programming behind a website theme and content management system. Occasionally, a particular functionality cannot be found in either Wordpress plugins orDrupal modules. Then, a module or plugin needs to be programmed. Modules and plugins can be outsourced inexpensively.
Cyber Teknic's testing consists of pre-launch bench tests against the anticipated load of your website. Content management systems need tuning such as server-side caching, optimizing image size to assure your website loads as quickly as possible. Testing also includes making sure you have enough processing power behind your anticipated demand. CyberTeknic also has to test when software upgrades occur. Testing software upgrades, patches and security fixes have to be done on development servers that are backed up.

It's very methodical and done carefully so your web site isn't penalized by the search engines. Internet marketing has increased in complexity requiring an ever increasing breadth of knowledge.
