Graphic Design: Simple Template Option
As part of the full Fast Forward package, we create a professional
graphic design for your Web site, ensuring it is consistent with
your existing branding.
One of the options we provide is a "simple template", which is the best
option if you're deferring the graphic design investment for some reason.
This could be for budget reasons, of course, or it might be for another reason - e.g.
you're not sure exactly what areas of your business will be most profitable,
so you'd like to defer the design for 12-18 months.
With this option, we install a simple template that's less visually attractive
than a full design, but is still clean and professional.
Note: This is not the same as using a template from one of the many template libraries
available on the Web. Rather, this is a simple - fairly plain - template we create
as a short-term measure until you're ready to invest in the full graphic design.
If you'd rather not use this option, learn more about the other options available.

What you get
As you can see from the examples above, the design is simple but clean.
The simple template has these things - some of which you can choose:
- A logo, photo or other graphic - provided by you - at the top. In the TantraFlow and RANZCO examples,
the client provided the full header graphic. In the TrainingWorks example, the client
provided the logo at the top left, and we extended it across the page with a light green
background.
- A menu of buttons, either in a row along the top (as in the TantraFlow example)
or down the left-hand side. You can choose the menu items, their order, the colour and
the size. If you'd like them to appear on a coloured background (as in the RANZCO example), you can choose that colour
as well.
- A main body area, where most of the material for each page appears. You can choose the
text colour and background colour (though we highly recommend black text on a white background),
and the size and colour of headings and sub-headings.
- An optional right-hand column for special notes (as in the RANZCO example).
- A footer area, with your contact details and a few standard links (Home, Privacy Policy, Search, etc.).
Fee
If you choose this option, then we do this free of charge as part of the installation.
