One of the most powerful and effective ways to gain custom – a business wouldn’t be complete without a decent website.

Why?

There is an undeniable reason why you should have a website – it is the greatest way for communicating with potential clients. In this day and age pretty much everybody has access in some form to the internet – whether it be at home, at work or through community centers & internet cafés. It reaches out to all generations, all over the country and all over the world – something that the Yellow Pages really doesn’t do anymore.

The first thing when thinking about a website is the colour scheme. Just throwing a load of colours together rarely works and the use of colour makes a large impression about the company and what it stands for. An example, quite easily is the site you’re looking at right now. There are essentially 5 colours in use here, the black in the background, the pink, green and orange with various shades of grey and white.

Our websites use XHTML1.1 and CSS2 to start with, and we make sure that (without fail) they validate. On top of this, we follow the W3C‘s accessibility guidelines to make sure that a) your site doesn’t contravene the BDDA and b) that anyone who wants to marvel at our handywork can do so freely and easily (it also has many advantages for you too)

Web Development

Development is also another important service which we offer – and without which the web, especially the so called “web2.0″ would not function. The technologies that we specialise in are PHP and MySQL – one of the most powerful and most frequently used technologies on the web – in fact the website you’re looking at right now uses a foundation of both of these.

There are a couple of future projects that we have up our sleeves that should see the light of day over the coming months – but each development will most likely appear on our blog :wink:

Previous Work

The most obvious example of previous design work would be the site which you are viewing at this present moment.

Pricing:

I don’t rely on design for my primary source of income, so price is generally negotiable however the general base prices are as follows:

£75 – Nice ‘n’ easy: basic design, relatively simple build.

£115 – Static Site – about 10 pages, bespoke design

£160 – Dynamic CMS based Site – unlimited pages, bespoke design and easy to edit content.
