Wireframe & prototyping

Before we start any screen design (web, mobile, touch, etc), we go through an extensive prototyping and layout wireframing process. This process allows us to define the information hierarchy of your design, making it easier for us to plan the layout according to how you want your user to process the information.

Quality assurance & testing

QA is an important step in any website development process and, by all means, should not be skipped.

At BOLT MEDIA we have an extensive set of guidelines in which we follow to ensure that we provide the best service & product to our clients.

This guideline addresses editorial, graphics and all of our coding. We put all our websites through a post-production process as well as receiving feedback from our clients throughout the whole project.

When conducting QA on existing projects, we use the same extensive set of guidelines as we would building a project from the start. Enforcing QA allows us to improve the projects components, infrastructure and content. When implemented a client will see progressive improvements in both lessening rate of defects and general increase in usability and performance.

As a standard we rigorously test our code in all browsers, devices and perform hosting stress tests to ensure the best user experience possible.
