Strategy + Process + Flow

L2 views our clients as partners and collaborators, and this idea forms the foundation of our web strategy. Throughout our entire process — from discovery through launch and beyond — we strive to achieve a shared understanding of the project’s scope and goals to get a clear picture of where we’re heading together. L2’s project management team guides the project’s flow through setting a communication plan, organizing approvals, project changes, due dates, and deliverables to assure that the project remains on track, on time, within budget, and exceeds our client’s expectations.

Design

L2 offers a full-suite of design services, including site content optimization, branding, user journeys, concepting and prototyping, and UI design. All sites we build utilize techniques and principles of Responsive Design, meaning your site reformats when viewed on various devices. Our design approach calls upon decades of experience to blend the needs and technical requirements of our clients with industry best practices. Our designers work directly with client teams to assure that the design surpasses expectations and closely with our developers to ensure that the integrity of the design is carried through launch.

Additionally, L2 knows that design and development that benefits those with accessible considerations often ends up benefitting the larger user group.

Implementation

Informed by our experience and best practices, L2 discovers and develops digital solutions based on client business rules and unique needs. Through clear development milestones, each deliverable within the project schedule is thoroughly tested, optimized, and documented before release for User Acceptance Testing and Launch.  

Development

At L2 we strive to stay current with all of the languages, technologies and best practices in the industry. This includes the latest versions of languages such as PHP, frameworks such as Laravel, and communities within WordPress such as Roots.io.

Internal Quality Assurance

Everything that L2 develops is thoroughly tried and tested by our team before releasing to clients. This is built into our project schedule and enables a more successful, smooth client UAT experience.

Training

L2 conducts formal training sessions for every feature that is released. Training sessions are customized for each client. Written documentation on each feature lives within WordPress, while training videos are cataloged and made available for clients to access on demand.

User Acceptance

UAT testing occurs during each development milestone. During the UAT period, clients test a feature utilizing criteria defined during the initial requirements period. We encourage clients to upload site content as a part of this testing to ensure proper working order.

Launch

Before the launch of a feature, L2 guides clients through end-to-end testing to make sure all systems are “go”. The site is then launched at a mutually agreed upon time, initiating a 30-day warranty period for anything that may happen after launch. 

Enjoy!

Blank canvases, organizing content, creating the architecture, and working to achieve your goals for a website; your home on the web is a huge accomplishment. We thank you for choosing L2 to build it.

Hosting + Support + Beyond

Cloud2

Cloud2, L2’s Amazon Web Services-based hosting solution is a secure, scalable environment  that features maximum availability and disaster recovery options. The elastic cloud environment dynamically scales for traffic surges and is optimized for speed and performance.

New Features + Upgrades

Site launch is just the beginning. Post-launch, we pride ourselves on working with clients to dream up smart, affordable solutions that continue to increase value and enhance user experience. We also prioritize keeping websites secure and up-to-date through ongoing Scheduled Development Upgrades that includes WordPress core and plugin updates and security patches. 

Future Proofing

All websites that L2 designs and develops are built to move. Our clean, modern designs are made powerful and sustainable by leveraging WordPress to give clients autonomy and flexibility as they build and update their sites. We continually introduce new technology, build upon our expertise, and evolve to meet and exceed the needs of our clients.
