our expertise

We have taken time to put a great team of people together so we can help you with your online needs. Whether you require a small website or a large corporate application we have people in place who can help you achieve what you need.

Our areas of expertise are listed below, with a description of what each involves. However, the list is not exclusive - we can do all sorts! If it's online or digital then we can probably help.

Our unique skill is being able to communicate our intentions, whilst remaining technically skilled. We will not bombard you with technical jargon – we pride ourselves on being an approachable team of designers and developers who can help you no matter how complex your needs.

but we’ll turn our hand to anything

The online world moves at a very quick pace with new technologies and approaches being launched on a regular basis. This inevitably leads to current ways of doing things quickly becoming dated and overtaken by new and improved methods.

We are often asked by clients "Have you worked with this before", or "Have you ever used this language". As much as we would love to always answer "Yes" - unfortunately we can't! However, we see something new as an opportunity, not a problem.

Part of our unique offering is that we relish the opportunity to try something new. In the fast paced online world this is something all companies such as ourselves should embrace. We don't feel we would be offering a great service if we didn't

Websites

We offer all aspects of building a website, including design, development and ongoing maintenance.

We can can handle your project right from the start, through to completion.

Using the latest technologies we can design and build responsive websites, which will work all the way from your regular browser, down to your mobile device - all from one website.

Our team can be involved from the beginning to advise you on technical requirements and functionality within your website. Our role is to suggest what possibilities there are for your site, managing the build and putting it online for the public to view.

We do not use applications such as Dreamweaver to build your site. All our code is hand written meaning we know exactly what is happening on your site. We believe that this allows us to offer you a better service, as we are in full control of what is happening.

Content Management

Are you looking to have a site developed that you can edit yourself?. We can custom build you a Content Management System (CMS) to meet your exact needs, and give you whatever control you need over your website.

Some people need to change and update their website on a regular basis, and asking an agency to do this can prove an expensive exercise over a long period of time. We can offer you the ability to edit areas of the site yourself, saving you from ongoing costs and giving you the freedom to manage your own content.

We can tailor a bespoke system to exactly meet your needs, so you get everything you want, but nothing that you don't need.

We are also happy to work with open source, or off the shelf Content Management Systems too. So if you need a WordPress site that needs building, or any other CMS we can help.

eCommerce

From a simple online payment, to a full online shop we have lots of experience building online eCommerce sites.

If you are looking to sell online then we have a lot of experience integrating a wide range of online payment methods such as WorldPay, PayPal, SagePay and more.

We can also help create your whole online shop, including a shopping basket and checkout.

We can develop you a bespoke system to manage exactly what you need on your shop, or alternatively we can work with an off-the-shelf application and configure it as you require. Our team will advise you on the options available to you, and that best fit what you need.

Voucher codes, special offers and ratings are all features we can look to implement on your eCommerce site to enhance your customer experience, and to maximise your revenue.

Applications

Everything is done online these days. It could be a staff intranet, an accountancy system or order tracking for your business. Whatever it is you can rely on us to be able to deliver exactly what your business needs.

We have developed and continue to work on a number of very large bespoke online applications for companies who need a browser based solution to a business need.

Your system can be placed online making it easily accessible via the Internet in the same way as a website would be. However, to keep it secure we can place the whole application behind a secure login screen meaning only your users can access it. We can also install an SSL certificate to further encrypt any data being sent and/or accessed./p>

Whilst we can host and manage any of your applications, it maybe that you have your own internal server and network. This is no problem, and we can setup your application internally if required. We can advise on the setup required too, as well as building the application itself.

Collaboration

A huge part of what we do is collaborating with other design and development agencies. If you are an agency or business looking for some technical expertise then we can be of help.

We can work with you on your projects, allowing you to deliver projects outside of your skill set. In short we can assist or become your website development team.

Do you already have a team of developers and designer, and are just looking for a bit of extra help? We can be of assistance to you too by simply offering our team as a backup to your own.

We pride ourselves on being unique, because we are both technical and approachable. If you are nervous about working with another company and being overcome with technical jargon, then let us put your mind at rest.

Online Marketing

Even if we did not build your website, we can help you promote it and optimise it for the major search engines. We work with a partner firm here in the UK, who will take a look at your site, and how it´s built. We can then advise you of what changes can be made to improve the site in the eyes of a Search Engine.

PPC )Pay Per Click) Advertising can be run alongside any website Search Engine Optimisation and is where you pay a search engine for a placement in their sponsored links section. It´s a very effective method to getting your site noticed quickly. Our partner firm can setup and manage the PPC campaign making sure you get the most for your budget.

If you collect email addresses from your clients and visitors then we can design, build and setup a HTML email campaign so you can send them information straight to their email inbox. Our systems can offering comprehensive reporting on these campaigns even down to who clicked on which links in the email, all in real time.
