The services we provide
There are many different reasons why you or your organisation might wish to own a web site. Understanding those goals will allow you to specify the design, complexity and functionality your site should exhibit. Otherwise, those goals will not be met. Based on our 25 years of experience in all aspects of the internet and the web, we are able to offer the following services in support of your ideal online presence.
Requirements analysis
We can help you to define exactly what the goals for your web presence are, then advise you on the sort of web site you would need to achieve these and how best to monitor how well these goals are being achieved.
Ecommerce consulting
If you are intending to use your web site to sell goods or services to customers, to contact prospective customers or to generate sales leads, then you need to understand and effectively implement a number of ecommerce disciplines. We can help you do this.
Web site design
Visitors to your web site tend to make a snap decision about you within the first 3 to 5 seconds. Normally they will either read more, visit another page or leave your site. The design of your site is the best way to ensure that they take one of the first two options.
Site updates and amendments
Over time, it is likely that you will want to add new content to your site, or to change the existing content, in order to keep it relevant.We can take on responsibility for the longer term upkeep of your site or pass it on to you, as you prefer.
Web site development
Following design, we can build a web site based on your specific requirements and constraints. This can range from a simple three page "business card" to a complex ecommerce development with electronic payments and space for thousands of products.
Email administration
We can set up and administer multiple email accounts at your own web address, so you can offer a professional and consistent image to your visitors, clients or customers. We can also supply you with This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. addresses for your personal email.
Authoring and graphics
An effective web site needs well written text and compelling imagery. Along with the site design, these two factors are the most important influences on relevance and trust - the factors which keep visitors on your site and encourage them to return. We can help you with this.
Hosting services
Your web site needs to have a home on the internet, and an address or URL. We can provide those, either on our own servers or with your preferred third party service or existing ISP. We can also advise you on the best choice of available URLs.
Search engine optimisation (SEO)
Every web site development or redevelopment we carry out is done so in such a way that it will be easily found and correctly categorised by search engines. This helps visitors to find your site and is an essential aspect of modern web site design.
Monitoring and visitor statistics
Once your site is up and running, it is important that you can measure its effectiveness over time. This means knowing how many visitors it attracts, and from where, and what they are doing while on your site. For ecommerce sites in particular, this is vital information.
