# Web Design Process – How Nikhil Soman Builds Your Website

## #1-Discussion

   **Discovery call:** we discuss your business, goals, pages, competitors, colours, fonts and the type of images you want. You can share websites you like for reference. This happens over a call, WhatsApp or Google Meet, or in person in Trivandrum and Kochi.

You then receive a **written scope of work** with the pages, features, price and timeline, so everything is agreed before work starts.

## #2 Demo Design Preparation

   Once the scope is agreed, Nikhil prepares a **homepage design** based on your brand and the reference websites, so you can see the look and feel before development starts.

## #3 Design Approval

   You review the design and share feedback. Changes are made until you approve it. The approved design becomes the blueprint for every page of the website.

## #4 Real-time web development

   The approved design is built in WordPress with Elementor, or in WooCommerce or Shopify for online stores. Inner pages, forms, WhatsApp buttons and animations are added, and every page is made **mobile-responsive and fast-loading**. You follow progress on a live staging link.

## #5 Website Launch

   After final testing on mobile and desktop, the website goes live. You receive a **detailed handover document** with logins and how-to notes, full ownership of the domain and hosting, **90 days of free bug fixes**, and a training session after e-commerce projects. SEO and maintenance are available as optional separate services.
