It’s your crown jewel. You spend resources building it, updating and getting people to visit it.
With that much skin in the game, it needs to be exact, current, relevant.
Is it a website or a prospect-driving machine? Your website is the crown jewel of your marketing program and it should encourage clients and prospects to interact with your company. We offer web strategy and functionality, compelling design, strategic content and organic SEO tactics that drive your customers to act.
For your website project we can do it all – from vision to monthly management – or just a piece. Some companies will offer you programming and design but expect you to provide the content. Or they’ll fit you into a box or template. Your company is unique and your website should be unique, too. That’s why we build websites that match your brand and integrate with your other materials.
At The Deciding Factor, we don’t believe in holding your website hostage or charging for smoke and mirrors. That’s why we bring you along in the process and give you the information you need to be able to take it over and manage your own updates. Yes, we’ll help you with that long-term if you’d like with our Content Development strategies. But if you ever want to move on, your files and your website are yours.

Our Web Services
It looks nice, but what does it do? Technology is constantly changing, and visitors to your website have high expectations. It’s not enough to just put your brochure content online; you need to make it easy for them to interact with you.
At the beginning of any website project, it’s a great opportunity to dream big. Think about what you would like your website to do tomorrow, a year from now, five years from now. This allows you to keep the right doors open as your website is programmed, and you can phase your project out over time to meet your budget and resource constraints.
At The Deciding Factor, we help you develop a vision, plan and strategize your online presence:
- Evaluation of Current Website
- Analysis of Current Visitor Behavior
- Content Management System (CMS) Selection
- Information Architecture
- Mobile Solutions
- Site Mapping and Content Outline
- User Experience Consultation
- Custom Applications
- Search Engine Optimization
- Social Media Interactivity
- Website-Email Interaction
Our comprehensive process can be the first step in your website development process or it can help you create a Request for Proposal document for your project.
It’s easy to be obsessed with what your website looks like and how it works. We’re a bit obsessed with what it says, too.
Most websites represent the largest marketing investment for a company. You spend resources building it, updating and getting people to visit it. With that much skin in the game, it needs to be exact – it needs to have your brand, your differentiation, a reason for your customer to care and a reason for them to buy.
Some SEO firms will recommend stuffing it with keywords and bland headlines to give you a top ranking in Google searches. At The Deciding Factor, we believe in website content that is interesting to the search robots scanning it to the real people reading it. You shouldn’t have to sacrifice interesting, compelling and even entertaining content on the altar of search.
Website projects can be all-inclusive – from vision through monthly content management – or you can ask us for a single project to refresh the content on an existing website. Regularly scheduled website updates can also be a part of your overall Content Strategy.
It’s your crown jewel – the website is where you send your customers for more information. It may be the first time someone comes into contact with you. It needs to reflect your image and invite your customer in. But if your website is more Prince Charles and less Princess Kate, you might be sending people away as soon as they find you.
If you let a website programmer design your site, you’ll likely get functional, but not fabulous. If a design firm does your site, it might look nice but lack a great user experience.
At The Deciding Factor, your website is integrated with all of your other marketing initiatives with that extra gem of interactivity. It reflects your style and waves to your customers with a smile.
