here is the 8 basics of website development before you start.

Web development services provided by SuperHub encompass the design, development, and maintenance of websites for businesses, organisations, and individuals. These services are aimed at creating visually appealing, user-friendly, and functional websites that effectively communicate brand messages, drive user engagement, and achieve specific business goals. We employ skilled web developers, designers, and UX/UI experts to deliver custom web solutions tailored to our clients' needs.


  1. Website Design: First, we focus on creating visually captivating and user-friendly website designs. We collaborate with clients to understand your brand identity, target audience, and business objectives. Using industry best practices, we develop wireframes and design mock-ups that showcase the website's layout, navigation, and overall user experience. We'll ensure the design is responsive, compatible with various PC, MAC, mobile devices and browsers, and visually aligned with the client's brand.
  2. Front-End Development: Front-end developers specialise in coding the visual elements and interactive features of a website. They use HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and other front-end technologies to bring the website design to life. Our front-end developers ensure the website is optimised for speed, accessibility, and responsiveness across different devices and screen sizes.
  3. Back-End Development: Back-end development services, which involve building the server-side functionality and databases that power the website. They utilise programming languages and frameworks such as PHP, Python, Ruby on Rails, or Node.js to develop robust and scalable back-end systems. Our back-end developers integrate databases, implement secure user authentication, and enable dynamic content generation to support the website's functionality.
  4. Content Management Systems (CMS): We often work with popular content management systems like Duda, Strikingly, Wordpress, Drupal, or Joomla to develop websites that are easy for clients to manage and update. They customise and extend these CMS platforms to meet specific client requirements and provide training and support for content editors and administrators.
  5. E-commerce Solutions: We'll help you offer e-commerce web development services so you can sell products or services online. We'll integrate secure payment gateways, develop shopping cart functionality, and implement inventory management systems. E-commerce websites developed by media agencies provide a seamless user experience, robust security features, and effective order processing capabilities.
  6. Search Engine Optimisation (SEO): We understand the importance of optimising websites for search engines to improve visibility and organic search rankings. Implement on-page and technical SEO best practices, such as optimising page titles, meta tags, URLs, and site speed.    Media agencies also ensure websites are mobile-friendly and follow SEO-friendly coding standards to enhance search engine visibility.
  7. Web Analytics And Conversion Tracking: Measurement is key so we'll integrate web analytics tools, such as Google Analytics, into websites to track user behaviour, monitor website performance, and gather valuable insights. We will also set up conversion tracking to measure specific actions, such as form submissions, purchases, or newsletter sign-ups. By analysing data, we help clients make better data-driven decisions and optimise website performance.
  8. Website Maintenance And Support: Media agencies like us provide ongoing website maintenance and support services to ensure websites remain secure, up-to-date, and performant. If needed we will apply security patches, update plugins or extensions, and perform backups. Media agencies also offer technical support, resolving issues, and providing assistance to clients when needed.
