The behavior of a web site or application, and how users control that behavior, is of vital importance in understanding the user experience. At Square One, we are website designer specialists, but we also consider reach, awareness and value, from initial workshops and whiteboard sketches. This allows us to produce highly detailed wireframes and functional documentation for all of our web projects. A simple website can often have several overlooked areas, none of which go unnoticed in our no-compromise work ethic.

Through the process of concept development, final execution and quality assurance, the Square One team creates distinctive and compelling interfaces. With a focus on innovation, creativity and meticulous attention to detail, we deliver a unique level of quality across web sites, applications, search and video.

Every project that Square One embarks on includes several aspects of quality Web design, including full XHTML/CSS Web 2.0 standards compliance. We also plan for integrated coding language applications and script platforms such as JS, JQuery, and PHP. Each website runs on state of the art analytics for proper reporting and ROI information. At the end of the day, we are not happy unless our client is happy.

It's all about awareness. If no one knows you exist, how can you be profitable? Traditional PR does not work well on the internet. There, we said it. They are two completely different mediums and should be treated as such. To take it one step further, each individual website requires a completely customized and 360° approach to increasing its footprint on the web. At the core of that approach is a hybrid of influenced search results and engaging viral media.

It is for that reason that we recommend to most of our web design clients that they let us manage their search engine optimization as well. When SEO is thought of from the beginning, rather then being added later, it can be signifigantly more impactful. However, for those clients who are satisfied with their existing website and would just like a little bit of the Square One Chicago SEO magic, we will be happy to put together a fully customized plan of attack for an existing website.

Our search engine marketing proposals include on-site and off-site suggestions including page optimization, link building, keyword resarch, analytical reporting and more. Additionally we are well suited and qualified to manage your pay per click activites as well. We have had much success across various PPC networks with our clients and are anxious to help turn our new clients onto these tactics.
