When I started rad<\/a>. Never did we think that we would venture into mobile apps and systems for some leading organisations in the Middle East and Pakistan. As a startup, you are sometimes scared of imagining too much.<\/p>\n

But one thing we were always confident about was building good websites.<\/p>\n

That was our strength, and to date,\u00a0I<\/a>\u00a0miss no chance of showing off the\u00a0websites my team has developed<\/a>. Even though mobile apps and custom software have a higher profit margin, the joy I find when a website goes live is just different.<\/p>\n

Maybe because that\u2019s where I started from \u2014 building user-driven websites that convert.<\/p>\n

User-friendly websites\u00a0<\/em>does sound clich\u00e9. Everyone claims to be building such websites, most of which are refined versions of some templates.And, no harm in that. But I am biased towards building websites from scratch, for every client.<\/p>\n

and After.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It\u2019s the process of website development a\u00a0rad.<\/a>\u00a0that sets up apart and also why we enjoy it so much. We have a team of brand strategists, developers, designers, and creative artists who work together to deliver great websites.<\/p>\n

Our boardroom is chaos during the brainstorming sessions. People bring a bunch of references and features that we fight over. I say fight because we are so ambitious about these websites, that in order to deliver the best, the discussions turn into crazy back and forth of testing and rejecting ideas.<\/p>\n

The wall says it all.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It\u2019s also where great ideas pop up that not only look good on the presentation, but are also practical, result-driven, and help clients stand out.<\/p>\n

We map out full user journeys before writing a single line of code. Be it a landing page or a full-blown e-commerce website, everything starts with wireframes, UI\/UX flows, and content hierarchies. Tools like Figma and Adobe XD are basically extensions of our hands at this point.<\/p>\n

We prototype, iterate, and test, again and again, until the experience\u00a0feels<\/em>\u00a0right. And before sending anything over to the clients for overall, the boardroom is chaos again.<\/p>\n

When it comes to development, we are platform-agnostic but quality-biased.<\/p>\n

We choose tech stacks that align with the business goals, not what is trending that week on Twitter. The goal is to foster an amazing user experience, so a pretty website is not even on the priority list.<\/p>\n

And every element we place has a reason, from that oddly satisfying button animation to the 0.3s hover delay, everything is well-thought and argued over (refer to the chaotic boardroom again (haha).<\/p>\n

Our front-end guys talk about component reusability like it\u2019s a religion, and the back-end team treats CMS setups like puzzle pieces, ensuring that clients can manage their websites without having to Google \u2018how to edit text in WordPress<\/em>\u2019 every time.<\/p>\n

\u00a0The front end programming genius. he\u2019s a poser for sure.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>

And yes, we have integrated CRMs, built custom dashboards, and launched mobile apps without breaking a sweat. But what still gives us the biggest high is hearing \u2018we love the website!\u2019.<\/p>\n

That beats all those revenue numbers. For me, it\u2019s how many clients love their websites.<\/p>\n

And no matter how far\u00a0I<\/a>\u00a0go with mobile apps, enterprise systems, or next-gen tech, I will always come back to clean code,\u00a0rad ideas<\/a>, and websites that actually do the job.<\/p>\n
