WEB DESIGN
We mainly develop websites for the wordpress platform, although we do build sites using html, css & bootstrap, and offer two different packages for building wordpress based websites. We also offer a monthly maintenance plan for those who don’t wish to have to do any maintenance or updates to their website themselves, which includes graphic design, website updates and keeping all plugins & templates up to date and problem free. If you don’t have hosting, we can host your site on our managed secure servers with CDN. If you don’t have a domain name, we can purchase on on your behalf for your site.
Websites start from £399 for up to 5 pages and includes SEO, all web graphics, plus domain & hosting and maintenance for 1 year.
For those wishing us to look after every aspect of their website, our maintenence packages start from £50 per month for smaller sites, increasing depending on the size of your site and woork required.
Bespoke WordPress Builds
We offer a bespoke custom build service with a website coded from the ground up to meet your specific needs. We build these to work using the wordpress platform, which is an open source content management system that allows you to update your website easily as well as providing e-ccommerce possibilities.
Modified WordPress Template Builds
If you are on a budget and looking to have something up and running quickly, then an off the shelf template is a low cost alternative to a custom built website. We can take an off the shelf wordpress template and modify it to fit your need. Because the main part of the coding is already done, it is more cost and time effective if you are not needing something bespoke. We specialise in modifying the best selling Enfold theme.
We also offer other web services for some of the most popular platforms…
Shopify
Shopify has become popular with small businesses and those looking to solely do drop shipping. Many Shopify shops can look very similair due to the limited selection of templates but you can help yours stand out by using custom CSS & graphics to stamp your individuality on your shop.
WIX
WIX is popular due to the free options they offer but you will have forced ads and very limited modification. Some of their paid options remove the ads and unlock the ability to customise your site. Custom CSS & bespoke graphics to make the most of your site.
Weebly/Square
These two platforms offer paid for ecommerce possibilities and free websites with ads but to get the most out of them, their paid plans unlock more features but their templates dont really stand out without some modification. We can create custome banners and using custome css to make them feel more unique to you.
Music Glue
Music Glue is a great free platform for bands, venues, record labels and promoter but out the box it is not the most visually appealing platform. We can help you make the most of your Music Glue site by using custom CSS & striking graphics to make you stand out from the crowd.
Big Cartel
Big Cartel is a low cost solution to set up an online shop. While it is mainly aimed at the artistic community, it can be used to sell a wide range of products with a user friendly back end. The range of themes available from Big Cartel are not perhaps the most attractive but Big Cartel allow for a certain amount of code customisation to really make the most of it. We can help lift your Big Cartel shop out of the ordinary with HTML & CSS customisation combined with custom graphics.
ETSY
ETSY is one of the largest market places on the web for creatives. Standing out isn’t easy but ETSY can really shine with the right graphics. We know this as we have our own shop on ETSY. Let us help you make the most of your ETSY shop.
Social Media
Social Media is part of our everyday life and its importance in your marketing strategy is key. We can design banners, cover photos, adverts and splashes for all your social media streams whether that is Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Linkedin or YouTube.
Any platform where access to editing the php, html & css can be modified to give them a look and feel more to your taste but even those with limited editing abilities can still benefit from custom graphics and banners. To find out what we can do for your site, get in touch for a chat.
FAQs
What Is Hosting?
A web host is a server that your website is ‘hosted’ on and which allows people to be able to visit it online. The cost of hosting can vary greatly depending on your needs but choosing the right host can make a huge difference to your websites performance.
A simple blog will require less resource than an e-commerce site so we will recommend a suitable hosting package based upon your needs.
What Is A Domain Name?
A domain name is the web address of your site, like www.example.com. The cost of domains are usually charged per year and can vary from around £10 per year for a .co.uk domain to £20 per year for a .com domain.
Choosing the right domain is important as it will be a reflection of your business and normally is used as your business email as well (ie: info@example.com). We can help you choose the domain that is right for you.
What Is WordPress?
Wordpress is an open source software that can be used as a base to build CMS (Content Management System) websites.
The benefit of having a CMS website is that it allows those without any knowledge of coding to be able to make simple updates to the website such as updating news or changing the prices on an e-commerce site.
WordPress is now regarded as an industry standard with many well known websites and companies using it to have their site built on.
What Is SEO?
SEO stands for Search Engine Optimisation.
Having a website does not mean that people will come flocking to it. You have to do a bit of work to make sure that your site is built and coded correctly.
Search engines like Google require that you follow certain guidelines in order for them to fully ‘list’ your website so that it shows up in search results.
We start the SEO process from the first bit of coding and help you with the content of the site to make sure that it has as much visability as possible.
