Our Development Process

We'd like to elaborate on our credentials, and describe to you our development theory: Design - Enable - Promote - Maintain. We encourage you to read through these four sections, and by the end, we hope you will choose In the Light Communications to provide you with an award-winning web solution.

We Design

You have something to say. And its time you were heard, isn't it? iTLC has the talented staff to help make your web site "dreams" shine.

Our web manager, Vanessa, is highly knowledgeable in

• web design methodology/theory
• graphic arts, and
• HTML, DHTML, CSS, XHTML
• PHP & mySQL
• XML & RSS (yes, we do podcasting!)

We are also very experienced in implementing the latest and greatest web applications (CGI, PHP, ASP, Java, Javascript) and are not afraid to try something else which you may have in mind! Need a content management system? We also offer customization services for many popular open-source systems.

We Enable

You've surfed the web. Or maybe you haven't. You know what you expect your site to do for you... or maybe you're not sure about the benefits. In the Light Communications will help you get a grasp on just how your web site will "fit" into your corporate structure... and how you can expect to see results.

After you sign up for a custom design package or web site template, our staff will carefully analyze the web site profile you filled out. We will then contact you (via phone, messenger, video-conference, or email...you choose!) to confirm your order and to talk to you about the "concept" of your site.

After we have a good idea how to proceed, our designers will set to work. Anytime you have questions, ask us. We're available 7 days a week.

We Promote

Anyone can create a web site. However, marketing it to the online world takes a lot of work. Here at iTLC we can help you achieve netwide popularity through search engine optimization, free and/or paid advertising, opt-in email lists and new media propogation (RSS feeds, podcasts, etc.)

If you have questions or ideas of your own, we're listening!

We Maintain

"A great site is an ever-changing sight."

Once your web site has been created, launched and promoted, you will also need to make sure that it stays current. That is what is meant by "site maintenance/webmastering". This is the real backbone of our services here at iTLC. We love to keep your site up to date, constantly adding to it & improving it, and keeping it running smoothly.

We offer maintenance services at an affordable hourly rate. Contact us for details.

Also, if you choose to purchase a web design template, or you simply want us to improve/webmaster your current site, we are happy to do that as well. Many of our clients find this an affordable alternative to designing a site from scratch. Click on the banner below to view some of the hundreds of templates we offer:

In any case, we are happy to serve you in whatever capacity you require. We hope that you will see, through our work, that our clients are our first priority, and that integrity and service are what we're all about at In the Light Communications.
