Website Design

Type of Website - We design small business websites that are simple, effective and Search Engine Friendly.

Designing websites that are Search Engine friendly means taking them into consideration from the very start of the design process.

Target marketplace, diversity of products, choice of domain name, proper choice and use of keywords in page text, are each given prime consideration.

Get any of the above wrong and you are compromising your chances of achieving good Search Engine placement.

In many cases more effective results can be achieved by using several small websites targeted to individual products / marketplace.

Content - Once the content has been developed using our Website Planner ©, we will commence work on designing and building the website in stages with your involvement and comment along the way. When it is complete to your satisfaction Search Engine submission will commence.

Accessibility - We can build websites to any of the three recognized levels of accessibility - Levels A, AA or AAA - the choice is down to the individual client. For more information click on this link to view our website built to Level AAA (Link opens in new browser window)

Domain Names - We can organize domain name purchases but generally advise clients to purchase their own direct from a reputable company. The advantages are that clients have direct control over their domain name. We are happy to guide you through the process of course and advise on reputable domain sellers.

Note: Recent trends in the way Search Engines list sites when regional searches are carried out, mean that it is very important to consider your marketplace before deciding on the suffix (.com, .co.uk, etc.) of your domain. For example - if a searcher selects "UK only" major search engines will return sites with .co.uk domains in the top listings. So if you are only looking for customers in the UK that is an important factor to consider.

Website Hosting - We can provide a managed website hosting service for clients whose websites we design. We do not provide hosting for websites designed by others and we do not allow FTP or control panel access to the web servers we use.

Monitoring and maintenance - We strongly advise a regular monitoring and maintenance programme to ensure your website content is kept up to date and maintains good Search Engine positioning. Websites that are simply built and then left alone can end up being unsuccessful because of the ever increasing number of competitor sites, changes to the way Search Engines work, etc.

Your Website Requirements - To discuss your own website requirements please fill in our enquiry form and we will contact you.
