PSD to HTML

Last month, after about a week gap, I got 2 big web development projects.Considering the scope of the projects, I realized that I would need to take external help to meet the deadline. One of the projects was Wordpress based real estate website and other one was 48 pages static website. I decided to do design and Wordpress integration myself and to outsource html coding. I talked to a few companies and on the basis of cost, timeline, reference
and portfolio shortlisted SEO-SEMANTIC-XHTML.com for the second project.

Why seoSemanticXHTML?

Amongst so many companies, I chose them because of following reasons:

  • USA local vendor
  • 24 hrs live chat
  • Direct contact with the coder
  • 8 hrs turnaround
  • Competitive rates
  • Code quality
  • Clientele
  • Based on reference check
  • Quality standards

What are their code quality standards?

As promised, my home page’s code was

  • w3c validated
  • Semantic
  • Search engine compatible
  • Browser compatible
  • Platform compatible
  • Print ready

How did it start?

I mailed them my home page design and asked for the final quotation and timeline PSD to HTML/XHTML & CSS Conversion. seoSemanticXhtml replied almost immediately. The prices and timeline was very competitive. The impressive part is they gave me the direct contact details of the developer, who will be working on my project, It was very important for me because I was on tight schedule and I don’t like any layer in between. Their developer and I discussed the project over web conference. I explained the design and shared with him the
list of jqueries I wanted. After these details were sorted out, I placed the
order online

seoSemanticXHTML’s order form

As you can see, their order form is very straight forward. It asks for minimal information. I decided to go with Professional packages. This package already has everything like commented CSS and HTML, testing on chrome etc. I only purchase 2 extra jqueries from advanced options, uploaded PSD, made payment and that’s it! I received order confirmation mail from their sales department and shortly thereafter an email from developer confirming the timeline.

What I received?

I received home page within promised time. Code was clean and beautifully written. It worked well on all the browsers. I was very impressed. Instantly I asked them the quotation for remaining 47 pages and considering the
number of pages, they also offered good discount. I mailed them my files and this time, I received final delivery within 3 days, 2 days earlier than scheduled delivery time. They assigned the same developer to me. I received excellent support from them throughout the life of the project.


Do I recommend them?

Since then I have worked with on multiple other projects including wordpress, Movable Type. I definitely recommend them. They are professional, reliable and excellent at what they do.
