Custom Site Builds: Development, Tailored.

Websites are like suits. They can (and should) be customized to fit your budget, needs and style.

PLUS’ in-house development team serves as our clients’ digital tailor, offering organizations options for the best possible fit:

For clients looking for affordable and quick-turn needs, we offer customizable, responsive sites built on our intuitive +Pro – providing flexibility and “wow” factor to elevate any “off-the-rack” website build.
Then, there are clients looking for a bespoke option – extensive custom functionality, specific design requirements, handcrafted back-end capabilities.

In those cases, we break out our red-carpet offering: a custom site build.

Taking the Measurements

Our in-house development team brings more than six decades of experience to these custom builds.

Your site will be handcrafted from the first line of code. Before we begin, we start with a full investigation to gain a deeper understanding of what you need. This includes determining:

If your site must be able to process large quantities of data or perform consistent data transitions.
If your site requires heavily involved functionality, such as interactive maps, pages of animations, complex information displays or login-only member portals.
If you need custom application programming interface (API) integrations with external services (such as customer relationship management systems like Salesforce, Google Maps or services like Stripe for donations and e-commerce).
If there is a need to conform to specific organizational security requirements (such as the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPPA) or General Data Protection Regulation).

Fittings

We stay in communication with your team at every step in our building process to ensure you are fully satisfied with your build – and we stay flexible in the event that a stitch or two needs to change.

As we build, we keep in mind industry-best security practices. This includes custom security hardening and MFA; granular roles with defined privileges; blocking traffic by geography and traffic patterns; and ongoing vulnerability scans and remediations.

At this stage, our team will also keep in mind any custom API or third-party integrations and bake them into the foundation of your build, allowing your team to fully synchronize your new site with your existing tech stack.

Our team conducts a full pre- and post-launch Q/A to ensure your site performs seamlessly on the back and front ends.

Red-Carpet Results

Our previous custom builds showcase the depth to which we can customize our digital properties.

Streamlined Page Designs

For a Fortune 10 company, we created a custom approach to landing pages, ripping out distractions to keep the user focused on one thing and one thing only: taking action.

We built in performance-boosting widgets, namely countdown clocks, timers, thermometers, scrolling names, and more to drive urgency and move site users to action.

Video Gallery

We developed a custom, interactive tool for this website that highlights real advocate videos and written testimonials on a variety of financial topics.

Issue Library

This site features a custom “legislation library” tracking policies relevant to the client’s interests. Our design allows the client to include their perspective on a given issue, as well as a custom embed with digital advocacy tool Speak4 letter allowing users to contact Congress without leaving the page.
