Sacramento / San Francisco Web Development

Web design and web development are often used interchangeably. However, there is a difference and it's important to know the difference so you are able to choose the right service and the right company that is appropriate for your business or project. Web design is the creation of the visual layout. This includes the graphical elements on a page such as images, text, font, etc. Web development is the phrase used to describe the technical aspects of a website. In other words, the programming required in order to present the right information in the correct format to your visitors. Our Website Design department designs the layout and the architecture of the website while the website developing team makes it functional.

It would be beneficial for clients with complex requirements in website design to work with a web development company who has both designers and developers. Furthermore, if a company wants their website to be found, a digital marketing company that offers a "one-stop" shop would be ideal. These companies are capable of promoting the site, creating custom applications and integrating the website with social media management elements.

At Top Web Rank, we have a website development team composed of highly skilled professionals with years of experience in website design and development.

There's far more to website design and development than it seems. Our team has the experience to achieve a high conversion rate (converting visitors into paying customers) and employ the following website design components:

• Industry specific layouts, colors, graphics and fonts
• Current search engine optimization (SEO) methods and trends
• Relevant content creation, including keywords, links, and video production
• Virtual tours and Chat functions
• Flash (or HTML5-compliant) animations
• Shopping carts

Of course, a business owner can decide which of these products will be of the most benefit to the operation. It's common and expected to only include a few of these features, rather than all of them.

Depending on your requirements, these packages consist of:

• Static or dynamic website design
• SEO friendly construction
• Video streaming and professional grade video production
• Interactive features (virtual tours, shopping carts, chat features)
• Social media optimization

We utilize multiple technologies in order to achieve the best results. Our favorite technologies include:

Server side:Cloud Computing, Linux, Windows Server, Apache, MySQL, MS SQL, PHP

Client side: HTML5 Development, CSS, JavaScript Development, AJAX Development, Adobe Flash Development

What sets us apart from other web design firms? We build websites that appeal to both people and search engines. The fact is, most web designers only build for one audience - people. But a correspondingly significant audience is the actual search engine that refers them to your site. If your web design is not optimized for search engines, it will not matter how great and fantastic it is if no one is there to see it.
