Custom Websites That Fuel Business Growth
The truth is, your website design could be keeping you from achieving your sales and marketing goals. In today’s world, customers check your website before they call or visit your business. If your website is slow to load, doesn’t work on a smartphone, or is complicated to navigate, chances are, you’ll lose customers before you even get a chance to meet them.
Balefire Marketing + Advertising is a Wichita web design agency specializing in custom website design and development to spark interest and generate leads.
What Does Your Website Say About Your Business?
Your potential customers judge your company’s quality and reputation by your website. What message is your website sending? Is it welcoming and easy to use, or does it look like it hasn’t been touched in the past 15 years? Does your site look great on a desktop computer but you have to pinch and zoom on a smartphone? Is it easy for new and existing customers to do business with you or contact you online?
We’re often contacted by businesses who purchased a low-cost website that they’ve outgrown, either because it doesn’t have the features they need or because it doesn’t work as it should. If that sounds like you, we’d be happy to take a look at your current site. We’re better at coding websites than making fancy sales pitches, but we’d be happy to discuss options for redoing your website design and see if we’re a good fit.

Our Web Design Process
As a top Wichita web design company, we use a proven website design and development process that ensures your website is specifically tailored to your business.
Step 1: Design Consultation & Content Meeting
All website projects start with a content and design meeting. This is when we get to know your business, your goals, and your target audience. We’ll ask questions to help guide the site’s layout, communication style, and features. At the end of the meeting, we’ll discuss the approximate timeline and next steps so you know when you can expect to see your new website design.
Step 2: Copywriting
During this phase, we’re busy researching your company, your competitors, and your industry. We’ll source online reviews and frequently asked questions for details that should be addressed on your new website. We’ll also perform keyword research to find the top search terms for your products and services. Then, we’ll write SEO-optimized copy that’s tailored for your company and encourages conversions.
Step 3: Web Design Proof
After your new website copy is written, one of our experienced web designers will create a design proof for your review. This is typically an image of the home page and an inside page. We follow best practices for both the user experience (UX) and Google to create a design that showcases your brand and engages users. After a critique and some back-and-forth on revisions, the website is ready for development.
Step 4: Custom Web Development + WordPress
After you’ve approved the design proof, our web developer will get to work building your website. We don’t use WordPress templates, so your website will be custom-coded with all the features your customers need to easily do business with you online. We’ll test your new website to make sure it loads quickly and looks great on smartphones, tablets and even widescreen desktop computer monitors. And we’ll ensure all the technical SEO features are in place so your site performs well on Google.
Step 5: Website Preview & Testing
Once your website is built and before it goes live, you’ll get a development link so you can take the website on a test run before it launches. This is a chance to click around on the website and see how it will function for your customers. If there are any needed revisions, we’ll take care of those quickly and get your site ready to launch.
Step 6: Website Launch
This is the exciting part, when we take your new website live! Our team takes into consideration email routing and internal networks so your company email addresses work as they should. We also make sure your domains, name servers, DNS and other technical website aspects are transferred over correctly. We’ll train you on how to update your new website content in WordPress, and we’re always here post-launch for additional training and support if needed.
