The Open Source CMS Development Process
Planning Stage
We’ll start the project by reviewing your business and functional requirements, then propose and review design layouts that would be a good fit for the website, and review those options with you.
Development Stage
Next, we’ll set up a development site on WSM’s development server and begin customizing the site to match your brand. At this stage of the project, we’ll be working with you as you make decisions and starting to compile the content needed for the website.
Testing Stage
Once the website is ready with the design, content and features, we’ll post instructions so that you can begin your review. This will be your opportunity to supply feedback.
Preparations for Go-Live
At this stage, we’ll be asking for the details to complete third-party integrations, such as payment processors, any CRM or API integrations, etc. Near the end of the development process, we’ll also discuss your plans for website hosting.
Go-Live Event
Once you have approved the development work, we’ll schedule the Go-Live to move the website to your hosting environment. At the completion of the Go-Live event, your new site will be Live!
