Full-stack web development solutions are more than aesthetics
A successful web developer is very different and more than just a web designer. Your custom web application will also needs user-friendly navigation and well-organized content and an unmatched user flow. Your back end development needs to be as good as your design. In short, you need software programmers with the ability to create dynamic websites. Without these elements your users, and especially your new visitors, won’t likely return. As one of the top web development companies, other digital agencies look to our technical expertise in building their own custom web applications.
Consider the following stats on web development agencies regarding the important of a quality web experience:
- It takes website visitors 50 milliseconds to form an opinion about your company based on your website design.
- 38% of visitors will bounce if your site design is unattractive.
- 44% of visitors will bounce if they can’t find your contact information.
Elements of high-performing, custom websites
High-performing websites consistently generate leads and sales. A high-performing website is one that meets the needs of its users while also providing a positive experience.
We create websites with a combination of front end development and technical back end support. In doing so, we focus on the following critical elements:
High search visibility
High-performing websites and dynamic web pages come up in search results on the major search platforms like Google, Bing, and Yahoo. Nearly 90% of people use a search engine to find what they’re looking for. You’re losing money each day you’re not visible in the major search engines.
When creating a website, it is important to make sure the site is highly visible to your target audience.
At DEV.co, we focus on the following from the outset of the web development process:
Mobile-friendly design
More than 57% of people search for content using a mobile device and in 2018, 63% of all paid Google search clicks originated from a mobile device. If your website isn’t mobile-friendly and doesn't perform like most mobile apps, you’re losing the majority of your leads that come from smaller screen sizes.
So, how do web development companies like DEV.co make their clients' websites mobile-friendly? One way is by using responsive design. With responsive design, the layout of a website can change depending on the size of the screen it is being viewed on. This means that no matter what device you are using, you will always have a clear and easy-to-use website.
Another way we create mobile-friendly is by using adaptive web design. With adaptive design, the layout of a website changes depending on the type of device it is being viewed on. For example, if a website is being viewed on a phone, the layout will be different than if it is being viewed on a laptop. This ensures that all users have the best possible experience when visiting your website.
So, which approach should you use for your website? It really depends on your needs and budget. However, both responsive design and adaptive design are great ways to make your website mobile-friendly. We're not just a custom software development company, but we are one of the best mobile app development companies on the market as well.
Secure data transmission
Data security is critical, especially for ecommerce websites. High-performing sites use SSL to encrypt data like credit card numbers, email addresses, and personal information to make visitors feel confident and secure. But our cybersecurity in web development is more than just an SSL. We offer government level security encryption, for web apps that require higher security measures.
As web developers, we are responsible for ensuring the security of data transmission on our client web projects. We take into account a variety of factors, such as the type of data being transmitted, the level of security required, and the environment in which the data will be used.
Data can be classified into two categories: sensitive and nonsensitive. Sensitive data is any information that could potentially cause harm if it were to fall into the wrong hands. Nonsensitive data is less sensitive and doesn't pose as much of a risk if it were to be leaked.
When it comes to securing data, we take a layered approach. This means using a variety of security measures to protect data at every stage of its life cycle. Some common security measures include: password protection, encryption, firewalls, antivirus software, and data loss prevention (DLP) software
Web developers also need to be aware of the different types of attacks that can be launched against their websites. Some common attacks include:
- SQL injection
- Cross-site scripting
- Phishing attacks
- Malware attacks
Fast loading speed
One of the most important aspects of any website is its loading time. A slow-loading website can frustrate users and cause them to leave before they even have a chance to see what your website has to offer. When your conversion rate takes a dive, so does your revenue. Some experts estimate that slow-loading websites cause retailers across the country to lose $2.6 billion in sales every year. We focus on Core Web Vitals (CWV) to ensure your web app loads smoothly without interruption.
Here are a few ways we can help make your website load faster:
1. Use a web hosting service provider that is optimized for site speed
2. Use a caching plugin to store a copy of your website’s pages in the visitor’s browser
3. Minimize the use of images and videos on your website
4. Make sure all of your files are properly compressed
5. Use a content delivery network (CDN) to serve your website’s files from multiple servers around the world
6. Optimize your website’s code for faster loading times
7. Strip out any unnecessary code or plugins
Clear calls to action (CTAs)
A clear CTA tells visitors exactly what to do. For instance, should they call you, sign up for a free demo, or join your email list? A clear CTA including in your website's layout will leave no room for confusion. There are a few things we work with you to implement to create effective CTAs:
