Our Services - Web Design

Conveying that all important message in an effective and cost efficient way is the number one priority of all of our projects. From a single page to a multi-sectional website, we can produce easy to read and navigate sites; we can also add innovative features such as integration with Social Networking sites like Facebook & Twitter, blogs, shopping carts and more.

All sites are designed to ensure that they appear on all of the popular search engines. You can find out more about search engine optimisation here.

Tailored Design

We can offer you an affordable web solution whatever your needs - whether you be a personal or business client, large or small.

We'll design a website to meet your needs. Firstly, we will discuss with you your required colours, content, theme and components. You may already have some inspiration which we can build upon, or you may issue us with a brief which we can design a site around.

The look and feel of a website is crucial to its success. A badly designed website will damage your brand and reputation. We'll ensure that your website is designed to meet the correct web standards and has easy to use navigation. We won't go overboard with special effects or crazy vivid designs.

We offer complete web design services, from registering your chosen domain name, if it is available, through to hosting, building and maintaining your site.

Designed to industry standards

All of our websites are designed to confirm with Industry Standards, typically W3C, which allows our sites to be viewed using all of the current browsers that your potential visitor may have installed on their computer. Designing a website to industry standard also means that it becomes compliant for users with disabilities that may require the use of a screen reader or other such assistance tool. This means that no visitor is discriminated against.

Our websites are typically designed using Stylesheets, otherwise referred to as CSS. CSS is used by both the authors and readers of web pages to define colours, fonts, layout, and other aspects of document presentation. It is designed primarily to enable the separation of document content (written in HTML or a similar mark-up language) from document presentation (written in CSS). This separation can improve content accessibility, provide more flexibility and control in the specification of presentational characteristics, and reduce complexity and repetition in the structural content.

CSS can also allow the same mark-up page to be presented in different styles for different rendering methods, such as on-screen, in print, by voice (when read out by a speech-based browser or screen reader) and on Braille-based, tactile devices.

Content Management

You may need to update your website at short notice, or have a requirement to update your site frequently such as latest offers, news, information etc.

We can embed a simple mechanism into your site which will allow updating a single area, or even a database driven content system providing feeds to external sites

Social Networking Integration

Applications such as Facebook and Twitter are the buzzword of the internet right now, so don't miss out. We can integrate your social network profile into your website.

So, how about your status update appearing as part of your site?, or your 'tweets' appearing telling your visitors or clients the latest developments, progress or gossip?

We'll integrate this content into your site to fit in with the style and content ... we won't take the easy way out and stick a 'widget' on your site that looks out of place!

Payment Gateway Integration

If you operate a business, it's probable that you may wish to take payment via the internet. The most easy and cost effective way to do that is via the popular 'PayPal' and 'Google Checkout' merchant providers.

Whether it is a pre-integrated shopping cart and checkout facility provided by the merchant, or a bespoke cart & checkout designed by us, it will prove to be an easy and hassle free option for your visitor to transact with you.
