Custom Web Design and Development

DTG is a full-service Web development company, which means we offer much more than basic Web design. Clients select our company because of our unique ability to blend award-winning Web design with dynamic Web programming and powerful online marketing. Because of our unique ability to seamlessly integrate these services together, we achieve amazing results for our clients.

User Centered Web Design

We believe in user centered design that is based on a deep understanding of our client’s business, goals, users and competitors. Before brainstorming or planning your project, we will fully evaluate all factors that will impact it.

Our Web design expertise extends across many industries. Our Web design team has won awards for websites we have developed for retailers, manufacturers, service companies, medical facilities, government entities, non-profit organizations and more. We have many Web designers on staff, each with his or her own unique ability to create intuitive, graphically appealing website designs that will effectively communicate your marketing message. Our Web development company is also experienced in user interface design, motion graphics, Rich Internet Application (RIA) development, 3D rendering and more.

Creating a User Experience with a Focus on Usability

We honor the important balance of usability and design aesthetics. Together, these determine the user’s experience with your project.

Our planning and architecture process focuses on the site’s usability and functionality. This is where we brainstorm the most effective ways to meet your goals and construct your project. You will work with designers and technical architects to determine exactly how your project will flow and function.

Web Designs that Give a Great First Impression

The aesthetic elements of a site are what give it a unique personality that impacts the user’s first (and most important) impression of the site. Aesthetics also play a major (and often overlooked) role in usability, as sites that are more attractive are perceived as being more usable (even when they are not).

Our process includes an intensive design goals meeting where our designers consult first hand with our clients. During this meeting, the designer learns more about the client’s specific design goals and offers recommendations for how to achieve them. We prepare a design goals summary for each client before we start on their design. By allowing the client to review a description of the designer’s vision before it’s executed, we are able to better meet their needs on the first design concept.

Once created, all of our designs are critiqued by several of our team of designers to ensure fresh vision, excellence and creativity.

We invite you to browse our showcase of websits to see the many examples of our award-winning Web design work. We also invite you to contact us to learn how we can put our Web design expertise to work for you.

If your small business is looking to make a big statement online but has alimited budget, we can still help — for under $100 a month. As the nation’s premier custom Web developer, we partnered with DTG.NET, the leading provider of online marketing services for small businesses, to offer a full suite of solutions to businesses of all sizes.

  • Website Design: Web.com’s designers use the information you provide during your initial consultation to build your website. Copywriting, search engine optimization (SEO) and quality control experts also contribute their expertise to ensure that your website represents your business professionally and accurately online. And with the automatic Mobile Business Card that comes with DTG.NET, your website is on-the-go from the get-go.
  • Online Marketing: Once your site is live, it’s time to get the online exposure that helps your business generate leads and sales. That’s where the Internet marketing services from Web.com come in. With submissions to the top search engines, such as Google, Yahoo!, and Bing, the most popular Internet Yellow Pages directories, and Google Maps, Web.com’s online marketing program helps your business get found online.
  • Results Tracking: Because your website is built to work hard — and smart — for your business, the DTG package includes an Internet scorecard that tracks the results of your website activity including the overall website traffic, the number of incoming telephone calls, the number of customer contact forms submitted via your website, and the Top 10 search terms used to find your website.

Content Management

One of the keys to a successful website is fresh, up-to-date content. How many times have you visited a website and found nothing but old news and events? Keeping Web content current used to be difficult — you needed FTP access, a graphics program and page-editing software, not to mention the expertise to get it done right. Thankfully we have developed an excellent content management system that will make your life much easier.

Our Custom Content Management System

Our content management system will make maintaining your website a cinch. All you need is a Web browser and an Internet connection. Our Web page editing user interface uses many of the features you’re already used to working with in common word-processing software. With a few clicks you can edit and create text, add hyperlinks, add pictures, insert tables, create anchor tags and so much more. You can even add new Web pages and update your menu bars. And with our easy to use cascading style sheets (CSS), your site will maintain its design edge.

Contact us today to walk through a demo of our content management system. You’ll be amazed at just how easy it is.

Web design built for business

Wednesday, June 1st, 2011

If you want your website to make you money or sell your product better than your competition, you need a web design service that can step up to the plate.


DTG located in downtown Hartford, CT has been developing websites and writing custom programming for over 23 years. A very long time.

When it comes to achieving success by marketing products and services online, your website design is of the utmost importance. Not only does a professional web design give your business greater credibility by making it look more professional, but there are also scientifically proven techniques in website design that dramatically increase your conversion rate-that is what percentage of people that view your site become paying customers. The higher your conversion rate, the more money you make and that is the bottom line when it comes to marketing products and services online.

Professional web design increases your bottom line in several important ways. As mentioned above, it creates a more professional look for your business which gives you greater credibility. Greater credibility means that people will trust your website more and be more likely to make a purchase from you or recommend your site to a friend. If your website looks amateurish, less people will want to buy from you and if it looks like a cookie-cutter design (one you made yourself with a template or hired a cheap designer to do) you won’t be able to distinguish yourself from the competition and you won’t make the sales you need to succeed.

The next way that professional web design increases your bottom line is by carefully guiding the viewer’s experience through all the necessary steps to create a sale. First, your design has to grab their attention. Recent studies have shown that a viewer decides whether or not to read your webpage within a fraction of a second. That initial decision is based almost entirely on the overall design of your website. If they click on your link and see a professional web design, they stick around long enough to read your site and see if you can provide what they are looking for. Next your design guides their eye through the information and down to the “call to action” where they should be ready to make a purchase.

A professional web design completes the deal by giving the customer the confidence to click the “buy now” button which has been strategically designed and placed for maximum effect. Your professional web design has made the customer feel comfortable that they are purchasing from a reputable company and not some fly-by-night operation. These are just a few of the ways that a professional web design increases your bottom line-and the bottom line is that you need a professional design to be successful on the internet.

Development Specialties

We are most passionate about being involved in all aspects of your web project, from design to development to marketing. We have helped numerous web startups get off the ground with custom web application development. If you need a professional website for your company on a tight deadline and/or budget, we also specialize in custom WordPress development, giving you a robust content management system in a fraction of the time and cost of a system built from scratch.

That being said, we also take on only certain aspects of web projects. We are frequently brought in to by creative firms to help with programming for their projects, just as technical firms sometimes need assistance with design work. Let DTG handle the design or development of your project so that you can focus on your organization’s strengths.

Small Business Internet Marketing Solutions

DTG web Design understands that as a small business, it all comes down to cash flow. Smaller companies want an effective marketing strategy implemented with the least amount of dollars spent. DTG web Design develops internet marketing strategies for small businesses that are highly targeted, trackable, and generate ideal new customer leads.

Web Design & Development

DTG web designers and developers work closely with clients to create online strategies for any company’s website by incorporating the most creative online architecture and state of the art web design elements that perfectly reflect company ideals into the user’s experience.

Enhanced Design

The design of your site greatly effects the impression that a customer acquires of your company. An appealing and attractive design interests the user in your products and adds to your company’s online promotions. DTG’s web designers and developers work to provide your company’s site with the most superior design using creative online architecture, and state of the art web design elements.

Flash Development

A site with movement, interactivity and animation can create a lasting impression. Flash web design is a very effective method to add eye catching action to your web site. DTG can design and integrate unique, low-bandwidth Flash designs into your website to create a professional, high-impact web experience, and to speed up the communication between the guest and the intended message of your website.

Navigation and Layout

Along with website organization, another important design factor is creating an easy to understand navigation for your site. DTG develops web pages that allow visitors to get around the site with ease. This helps your visitor get the information they want fast, within just a few clicks of the homepage. DTG can create a well-organized layout that allow your visitors to sail smoothly through your site

E-commerce Integration

Selling goods or services online requires planning and development. DTG can integrate your commerce needs into the site by listing your products and services and adding features such as: a shopping cart, order forms, credit card payment, shipment tracking and inventory management. These functions can also be supported by our back-end application that allows for real-time editing of site information, thereby increasing the usability of the site and the productivity of your business.

Forums and Bulletin Boards

Forums and bulletins are great tools to keep the communication going between the company and its customers. Customers would be able to access the bulletin boards or forums on the company’s web site by entering their comments or feedback on a specific topic. The company can then respond and establish a long lasting dialog with its customers.

Online Forms Integration

DTG can assist any company in turning paper forms into online forms, enabling the viewer to see the information in a digital format. It becomes more efficient for a company to receive and process the information when the forms are placed on the website. Additionally, customers can easily access the forms online in real time.

Online Surveys

Any business looking for feedback on their services or products can use online surveys. Online surveys can be set up on a company’s web site and integrated into the web design. DTG can assist you in setting up online survey forms that can be changed and updated in real-time by a company administrator or third party.

SEO Services

Your website is only useful and profitable if people find you. SEO stands for search engine optimization, and it makes your website attractive to search engines so that your company is more likely to be found by potential customers. DTG can help you increase your page rank and get more traffic by having you indexed in popular search engines.
