Toronto based c-Seven Media takes a modern approach to planning, designing and developing web sites for business. We pride ourselves on keeping pace with new technology before it's become the norm. We constantly research, review and test the latest web technology, online services, tactics and online tools to make sure you get what you need, and pass on what you don't. Each customer is unique, so solution needs to be too.

c-Seven Approach

Discovery

The last decade has taught us that there’s no single approach or solution. Each customer is different, with unique needs for their web presence. Our first step is to listen. To serve you best, c-Seven needs to understand your business, offerings and vision. This helps us plan a web strategy aligned with your current and future goals.

Purpose

What do you need/expect/hope to get from your website? Knowing your business aims helps us establish a goal-oriented structure and strategy for the web. If you need to drive traffic to your site, it will look very different than if you need to provide a repository of information & forms. How people will typically find or get to your site drives the project. What you need them to do or see once there becomes the backbone of our structure. We’ll determine how to measure the effectiveness of the strategy – which allows us to finetune it for better success.

Planning and Design

As web technologies become more complex, it is critical to have a detailed design architecture before starting development. Flow charts show the functionality that will be developed and, through an interactive process of “mock-ups”, the customer has insights into the look and feel of the solution being planned. This design process ensures that we stay on track to deliver expected results within the timeframe and budget.

Project Management & Quality Assurance

At c-Seven, we believe in taking responsibility for our work. Solutions are built in-house, not outsourced. We have the processes & discipline to ensure architectural integrity and coding standards. Through regular project meetings, progress & quality are monitored. Any issues are discussed, communicated as required, and quickly resolved. After all, we don’t like surprises any more than you do.

Deployment

You’ve approved the design, we’ve stress-tested the development – time to take it on the road! Appropriate members of your team are trained in use of your web-management tools. We’ll look over your initial changes, to ensure you understand the nuances. Since our solutions are web based, you don’t have to maintain software or servers.

Growing

Websites Have changed dramatically in the past 2-3 years, and the evolution continues. To stay current, c-Seven constantly refines and updates content and development tools and technology. We stay in contact with you to make certain your site continues to you’re your goals, and adapts to the latest technologies. When it becomes the new standard, we ensure that you are able to add the new podcast, blog, or twitter feed.
