Content Usability
Contents sprout from the need to get your message across, so we work on the maxim that your people should be aware of where it is located. Using our expertise in web usability, we map your contents according to how your end user would engage with your website. Our aim is for web contents to be so well structured and accessible, your user never needs to use your search engine, and best of all, it keeps them coming back!
Designing For Your Content
Getting your message across is the foundation of a good website. It needs to be supported with an aesthetic form and functional design to create an all enriching end-user experience. To achieve this, we'll guide you through with our proprietary visual development methodology.

Web Design
At such, we at Active8 believe that a good web design is more that just eye candy. We focus on the concept of user-centric design through content architecture and visual modelling. Meeting the needs and wants of your customer is our top priority. This encompasses good content usability and ensures a visitor is converted to a customer.
Usability and the end-user experience
We will work closely with you through visual exercises (such as wire-framing) so as to include your valuable input and involvement at each stage of the progress. With website prototyping and usability studies, we study how your end-users interact with your content and propose the best solutions in terms of site architecture, navigation and web usability.
Your input is vital for us as we work on a web design that is aesthetically pleasing without compromising on usability. That is why we will insist on producing visuals at every stage so you can better envisage and provide your feedback. At Active 8, we believe that actual mock-ups will go a much longer way, than relying on just our active imaginations expressed verbally (as the saying goes, pictures speak a thousand words).
