What we can do for you
We begin by listening, making sure that we understand the challenges and opportunities. Perhaps more than anything else, GRUMPmedia is known for our structured web design process.
First, we capture all the project requirements, from the goals and key audiences, to the features and the brand attributes. Next, we research what key phrases potential visitors are searching for in search engines. Then we align these phrases with pages on the sitemap. Now things get more visual… Wireframe layouts of each page are created, showing the placement of main elements. All of this is done with search engine optimization, visitors and future updates in mind.
Website Design
Web design that works for you & your audience As with any design effort involving branding, web design must:
1. Match the brand
2. Appeal to the target audience(s)
3. Reflect the audience’s perception of the brand
If your design doesn't look better than that of your competition, you've got a problem. Perception drives a visceral response, and web design quality directly affects a visitor’s perception of a company's professionalism and the visitor’s interaction with the site. Apart from mandatory brand attributes and elements, web design demands its own set of specific requirements:

E-commerce Solutions
GRUMPmedia has built dozens of ecommerce sites since 2001, for companies around the country and here in Vancouver. Ecommerce sites, like any site, need to build traffic and turn visitors into customers. However, ecommerce sites need to address other important issues such as security, merchant account setup and gateway integration. GRUMPmedia has become well-versed in each of these areas.
Content Management System
A content management system - or CMS - allows a website to be updated quickly, easily and at no cost. Updating the written content on a web page should be as quick and easy as writing an email. And no one wants to get an invoice every time a website’s content needs to be updated.
Since 2001, we have been building and improving our skills in both Joomla, Drupal and WordPRess. We've used these tool to build many sites,, including ecommerce products, event calendars, slide show images, directory listings and more.
