Laick Design’s process for converting the Hranec Mechanical Contractors site from HTML to WordPress likely involved several key steps:
- Assessment and Planning: Laick Design would start by analyzing the existing HTML site to understand its structure, content, and features. This involves identifying which elements need to be preserved and which can be improved upon.
- Design and Theme Development: Next, they would create or customize a WordPress theme to match the design of the original HTML site or enhance it. This theme includes templates for various pages (e.g., home, about, contact) and ensures that the site’s visual elements and layout are consistent.
- Content Migration: The content from the HTML site—text, images, videos—would be transferred into WordPress. This involves creating new pages and posts in WordPress and populating them with the migrated content.
- Functionality Integration: Any interactive features or functionalities from the HTML site, such as forms, sliders, or galleries, would be integrated into WordPress using appropriate plugins or custom coding.
- Testing and Optimization: The converted site would be tested thoroughly to ensure that it works correctly across different browsers and devices. This stage also involves optimizing the site for performance and SEO.
- Launch and Training: After finalizing the site and making sure everything works as intended, Laick Design would launch the WordPress site. They might also provide training to the Hranec Mechanical Contractors team on how to manage and update their new WordPress site.
Throughout this process, Laick Design would ensure that the site’s functionality and aesthetics align with the client’s needs and expectations.
