"I need a new website, now what?"

You wouldn't hire a contractor to build your house without hiring an architect first. The same applies to websites. We can help you turn your vision into reality through our research, discovery and information architecture process.

Every time you click on a link on a website, someone, somewhere decided that you need to see that link and to what page it should lead. Advomatic's strategy team will guide you through the planning process from A to Z, so you have all the documents and information ready to hand off to any Drupal developers and web designers. We've planned and organized award-winning sites for several clients, including MAPLight.org, The Opportunity Agenda, TheMiddleClass.org and itsasickness.

Planning for Drupal
As with any CMS, design for Drupal requires understanding how the platform works – on the presentation layer, at the code level, and in the user’s hands. Familiarity with “the Drupal way” is a prerequisite to efficient, usable user interfaces that will save you considerable time and money during development. Because Advomatic’s team includes leading Drupal developers, our consultants specialize in information architecture that will leverage your brand on Drupal, using a planning process that will optimize your site for a unique Drupal look-and-feel.

• User Persona Development
• Content Inventory
• Site Map
